[RPPTL LandTen] Distressed Condo Relief Act

[Neil B. Shoter]

Several of you expressed an interest at our September meeting in working on a Subcommittee to address issues that have arisen from the Distressed Condo Relief Act (formerly SB 1196), that became effective July 1st, and which affects the HOA, Condo and Co-op sections of Section 718, Florida Statutes - specifically an Association's collection of rents from tenants.

The RPPTL's Condominium and Planned Development Committee is setting us a subcommittee to study whether a "glitch" bill to correct problems or clarify language in this Act is needed and has invited our Committee to work jointly.

If you would like to participate in this subcommittee to work on this issue, please let me know, and your availability for a call with the Condo Committee the week of October 11th.

Thank you.

Neil
