Bill H.172 proposes the establishment of a Common Interest Community Resource Center within the Office of the Secretary of State in Vermont. This center aims to provide essential information and support to the public regarding common interest ownership communities, which include condominiums and homeowners' associations. The Secretary of State is authorized to contract with nonprofit organizations to assist in fulfilling the center's objectives.

The Resource Center will offer guidance on various aspects of common interest communities, including organization, governance, budgeting, conflict resolution, and the rights and responsibilities of homeowners and associations. Additionally, it will ensure that relevant information is accessible online in a user-friendly format and at no cost to the public. The act is set to take effect on July 1, 2025.
