Respectfully request assistance on the following.

In the Colorado SB-05-100 and Amendments by SB89 ( Colorado HOA Disclosure Requirements. ) I find one section that I’m not clear on. Under Section 38-33.3-209.4. Public disclosures required - identity of association - agent - manager- contact information.

I find the following on section ( C ). A valid physical address and telephone number for both the association and the designated agent or management company, if any:

My question is, if a management company run’s his business from his home, Is a P.O. Box address valid as stated in the above paragraph?.

I was to think that the address must be his business ( home ). Can you help on this subject. The management company refuses to give me his physical address. Is he correct??? Confused on this one.

Thank you.
Richard

Richard, a P. O. Box is not a physical address.

My thanks for the information.

After reading the Colorado Revised Statutes for the past 3 weeks, I have come to understand that the management Company is so far out of compliance I’m not sure where to start. In fact, it so bad it scare’s the daylights out of me. I don’t find the Senate Bill hard to understand and I’m baffeled by what I have seen. Thank God I keep ALL records, Pictures and documents for proof for the past 10 years.

Again, my thanks and as you may know I’m not a attorney, just a very concerned homeowner in a HOA association that I feel is out of control on certain segment’s of the Senate Bill. I feel like the Lone Ranger on this problem.
My sincere thanks.

Richard,

I would respond to the management company that you need the address to comply with CO law. If he chooses not to provide a physical address, then the Board will have to reconsider his contract as the Association needs to comply with the law.

Thanks Tim.
Your assistance will be of great value. I find it’s time that I face up to the Management Company and the Board. I’m not at all familiar on how to do it, but I’m going to do my best. We have lived 19 years in our condo and have seen only the decline of the area. The story is a long one and the gradual decline of the Condominiums is a disgrace and a shame. I’m going to do my best to stop it if I can, but the apathy is rampant. Sure may need help from this Web sight. Assistance from people like you is a God sent. My sincere thanks. Keep up the good work.
Richard.

Hi Richard:

As Tim stated above the MC needs to provide a physical address to comply with CCIOA otherwise it could give your HOA a reason to potentially be able to cancel the contract. However, according to one of your statements above, that may be something the HOA would not mind having as an option.

I found the first dozen times I read CCIOA referencing the “definitions” very helpful. If you have more questions just start a new thread for each and we will all help out as much as possible.

This is the legal resource link I use to review Colorado Revised Statutes:
