Florida Condominium Official Records on Website

You'll probably need to check your documents and state law, but generally association documents are only available to members of the association, mortgage companies or prospective owners (those who've paid earnest money and starting the buying process). Some association's post some information on the community website like the Bylaws and CCRs or board meeting minutes and anyone can read them

Some record availability may depend on what you're asking for and why. For instance association members should be able to get a copy of a vendor who was hired by the association, but not bids for the work because they may contain proprietary information. You don't have access to a property manager's employee files because they don't work directly for the association. If the association hired a person directly, there are confidentiality laws concerning employee records, so you still may not get certain information.

Consider what you want and why (you may need to give a reason in your request.) Most of us aren't attorneys so your best bet may be to contact a private attorney. I believe there are separate state laws in Florida for condo associations and single family homes, so go to your state government website and fire up the search button (look in the legislative section, which should have current state statutes

Beyond what the law requires, best practices for official records posted to the web site, in my opinion:

Public
Maybe the Declaration, Bylaws and board-created Rules and Regs. Nothing more.

Accessible to All Owners
Governing documents. Approved Minutes and possibly well-marked "Draft" Minutes. Approved annual budget. Procedures such as architectural applications; complaint form; parking permit form; and the like. Newsletter. Automatic withdrawal yada info. Reserve study (yes, every page). Possibly more (just ask).

Accessible to Board Members
Nothing. Too much trouble in general. Board members get material by email.

All other records to be available by request, consistent with the law and the governing documents.

I'm going to assume that by "public" you mean the members of the association. No information on the website needs to be available to non-members of the association, and in fact all the official records are required to be in a password protected area.

FS 718 and other documentation tells you what official records must be available to the members. There's no reason not to put everything that's an official record on the website. That eliminates records requests, because you can point an owner to the website.

There really shouldn't be anything on the website for the directors/management company only. If there is any information like that (correspondence with owners, bids in progress, etc.) you can keep that on a separate server.

We do have our governing documents in a non-protected area of the website (but we're an HOA and not a COA so different rules). I think it's a great idea to have it available to potential buyers - but in Florida a buyer has to sign an acknowledgment that they have received a copy of the governing documents. Not that anyone reads them ...

The condo laws in Florida are overkill, but they do eliminate the secrecy that used to be an issue in condo associations, where the boards didn't want people to see the finances, or the contracts, or other documents. Now they have to be available and a website is supposed to make it easier.
