Covenant Enforcement, Conduct of Meetings, and Collections Package
On June 3, 2022, Governor Polis signed HB22-1137. The new law revised various sections of CCIOA and requires associations to update the following three policies: Covenant Enforcement, Conduct of Meetings, and Collections. Then, in June 2024, Governor Polis signed HB24-1233 and HB24-1337 which revised various sections of CCIOA with respect to the collection and foreclosure of delinquent assessments. If your association did not update your policies after HB22-1137, we recommend this package to bring all three policies in compliance with the 2024 updates.

Water Leak Policy
One of the most difficult situations for boards and community association managers to respond to is a water leak situation. Who is responsible for repairing what? Who is supposed to investigate? What if someone’s negligence caused the water leak? In order to more efficiently determine the source of leaks and mitigate damage caused by such leaks, associations should consider adopting a water leak policy.

Towing Policy
When individuals fail to comply with parking rules, the HOA may leave the Board of Directors looking for enforcement options, including the possibility of towing improperly parked vehicles. HB22-1314, which was signed into law in 2022, and most recently this year’s HB24-1051, created substantial new towing requirements that regulate towing carriers.

Reasonable Accommodation Policy
To minimize potential discrimination claims within your association, we recommend adopting a Reasonable Accommodation Policy. The policy should set forth a process for requesting reasonable accommodations, reviewing the requests, and making decisions on the same.
