The resolution, titled the Association Meeting Flexibility Emergency Declaration Resolution of 2025, addresses the urgent need to amend the Condominium Act of 1976 to allow condominium unit owners associations and cooperatives to conduct virtual meetings. This amendment is necessary to clarify voting and quorum requirements for such meetings, as well as to extend the ability for limited equity cooperatives to hold remote meetings. The resolution highlights that since the COVID-19 pandemic, virtual meetings have become commonplace, and the Council has previously granted temporary flexibility for these associations to meet virtually without needing to amend their bylaws.

The resolution notes that the most recent temporary measure allowing virtual meetings will expire on March 1, 2025, and emphasizes the importance of emergency legislation to ensure that all associations can continue to benefit from virtual meeting capabilities. The Council has determined that the circumstances warrant immediate action, allowing the resolution to be adopted after a single reading and taking effect immediately.
