No changes for condo and homeowners associations: Legislature's failure to act on proposals means current policies remain in effect.
South Florida Sun-Sentinel
Nancy Levy sends this very interesting piece on the Florida legislative wrapup, and the proposed legislation that would have given HOA residents access to the condo ombudsman:

Homeowners still face foreclosure even if they owe their association $25. Directors of condominium and homeowners associations are still not required to learn the law before spending owners' money.The state still can't regulate homeowners associations or provide an ombudsman to mediate their disputes, as it does for condo owners. This year's battle in the state Legislature featured those who want state law changed to make boards more responsible to owners and those who oppose change. When the session ended in Tallahassee on May 8, almost everything remained the same as it was before it began in March.
