The Association Meeting Flexibility Emergency Amendment Act of 2025 amends the Condominium Act of 1976 to allow condominium unit owners associations to conduct virtual meetings and clarifies the voting and quorum requirements for these meetings. Specifically, it introduces a new subsection that permits meetings to be held via telephone or video conference, ensuring that all participants can hear and communicate effectively. Additionally, it mandates that notices for such meetings include access instructions and allows the executive board to set deadlines for ballot submissions, enabling electronic voting up to seven days before the meeting.
The bill also amends various sections of the District of Columbia Official Code to facilitate remote meetings for cooperatives and limited equity cooperatives. Notably, it changes the language regarding the authorization of remote meetings, ensuring that such meetings can occur regardless of the articles or bylaws. The amendments aim to enhance flexibility and accessibility for unit owners and members of cooperatives, reflecting a modern approach to governance in light of evolving communication technologies.
