Your one stop shop for SB326/SB721 compliance

SB326 "Balcony Bill" Summary:

As of January 1, 2020, Senate Bill 326 has taken effect for HOA communities. This bill requires associations to conduct visual inspections of exterior elevated elements and load-bearing components six feet above ground.

Examples of these are balconies, decks, patios and elevated walkways. It is required that a Licensed Structural Engineer or Architect generate a report summarizing the findings, which will then be included into the association’s reserve study.

"Our association delayed SB326 inspections due to decks being homeowner responsibility. Soon after, lenders began declining loans, leading to frustrated owners. The Board took swift action to resolve the issue." - Community Manager
