Operative Text
Sec. 2. As used in this chapter, "cooperative housing association" means a consumer cooperative that provides dwelling units to its members.
Indiana Code § 32-31-3-2 establishes a specific definition for the term 'cooperative housing association' as it is used within that chapter of Indiana's landlord-tenant law. Under this definition, the term applies to a consumer cooperative whose purpose is to provide dwelling units to its members. This definitional provision shapes how the broader chapter's rules and protections are applied to cooperative housing arrangements.
Plain English — not legal advice.
Operators and boards of consumer cooperatives that provide dwelling units to members should be aware that Ind. Code § 32-31-3-2 classifies their organization as a 'cooperative housing association' for purposes of the surrounding chapter. Compliant operators generally ensure that their governance documents and member agreements reflect the cooperative structure that triggers this classification. Understanding this definition helps cooperative housing operators determine which provisions of Indiana's landlord-tenant chapter apply to their operations.
