The bill amends several sections of the General Laws in Chapter 34-36.1, known as "Condominium Law," to clarify the applicability of certain provisions to condominiums created before July 1, 1982. It introduces a definition for "special assessment," specifying that it is an assessment that is not part of the association budget. Additionally, the bill allows for the remote participation of unit owners in association meetings if such arrangements are authorized in the condominium's declarations or bylaws.

Specifically, the bill inserts new language regarding the applicability of sections to older condominiums, the definition of special assessments, and the procedures for conducting meetings. It mandates that meetings must be held at least once a year and outlines that, unless authorized in the declaration or bylaws, all association meetings must take place in a physical location within the city or town, or in the county where the condominium is located. If authorized, meetings may occur entirely remotely, allowing unit owners to be counted for quorum, communicate with other participants, and vote using systems that support image, voice, and data transfer. The act will take effect upon passage.
