This bill proposes several updates to the Arizona Revised Statutes regarding property management and voting procedures within condominium and community associations. Notably, it introduces provisions allowing meetings of unit owners' associations and boards of directors to be conducted via online or virtual platforms, overriding any conflicting association documents. Additionally, it clarifies that after the period of declarant control, votes allocated to a unit cannot be cast by proxy, but must be cast in person or via absentee or written ballots, with specific requirements for ballot content and delivery methods.

The bill also modifies the quorum requirements for annual meetings, establishing that a minimum of one-tenth of the total votes entitled to be cast is necessary unless the community documents specify a lesser amount. It further stipulates that absentee or written ballots must be delivered to eligible members at least ten days before the voting deadline, and outlines the retention of voting materials for inspection for at least one year post-election. Overall, these changes aim to enhance transparency and accessibility in the governance of community associations.
