AI Summary

  • Amends the Condominium Property Act to remove the requirement that members demonstrate a "proper purpose" when requesting to inspect association records including contracts, member listings, ballots, and financial books.

  • Eliminates language requiring members to state a proper purpose in their written inspection request and removes the burden on members to prove proper purpose in enforcement actions.

  • Requires associations to provide requested records within 30 business days or the request is deemed denied; members who prevail in enforcement actions may recover reasonable attorney's fees and costs.

  • Associations may still withhold certain sensitive records including employee matters, pending litigation, threatened actions, other members' expense information, and documents related to other members' property transfers.

  • Applies these inspection rights to all condominium instruments recorded under the Act; any conflicting provisions in condominium documents are void as against public policy.
