Cal. Civ. Code § 9-104.3
Applicability of Article. All common interest community associations electing pursuant to paragraph (8) of subsection
Operative Text
Applicability of Article. All common interest community associations electing pursuant to paragraph (8) of subsection (a) of Section 9-102 to have this Article made applicable to such association shall follow the same procedures and have the same rights and responsibilities as condominium associations under this Article.
Under 735 Ill. Comp. Stat. 5 § 9-104.3, when a common interest community association opts in under the election provision of Section 9-102(a)(8), it becomes subject to the same procedural framework that governs condominium associations under this Article. This means the association acquires the same rights and bears the same responsibilities as a condominium association for purposes of the eviction and possession procedures outlined in the Article. The provision effectively places electing common interest community associations on equal legal footing with condominium associations in this context.
Plain English — not legal advice.
Property managers and boards overseeing common interest community associations that have elected coverage under 735 Ill. Comp. Stat. 5 § 9-104.3 are generally expected to follow the same procedural steps required of condominium associations when pursuing possession actions. This includes adhering to the notice requirements, timelines, and filing procedures that condominium associations must observe under the Article. Operators typically confirm whether their association has formally made the election under Section 9-102(a)(8) before initiating any proceedings, since that election is what triggers applicability of these rules.
General guidance for property managers — not legal advice for your specific situation. Consult an attorney for advice on your case.
If you reside in a common interest community — such as a homeowners association community — that has elected coverage under 735 Ill. Comp. Stat. 5 § 9-104.3, the association must follow the same procedural rules that apply to condominium associations when seeking possession. This means tenants or unit owners in such communities may have access to the same procedural protections afforded to those in condominium settings under the Article. Individuals who believe these procedures were not properly followed may consider raising that issue as a defense in any possession proceeding or consulting a tenant-rights organization familiar with Illinois community association law.
