About The Program:

Our highly experienced panel of community association law experts is bringing this program back to introduce attorneys to the representation of community associations, as well as to update experienced practitioners. The program will build on the fundamentals of the practice, with a discussion of current issues, and confront problems in counselling associations. This program not only offers legal resources to associations and boards and their legal counsel, but also focusses on the collaborative effort of other professionals, such as managing agents, accountants, and engineers.

Program Agenda:
9:00	Opening - Christine F. Li, Esq.
9:10	Communities and Their Associations Understanding the documents that form and govern community associations along with the statutes and regulations that dictate the requirements of these documents and how they are to be interpreted. Be certain that the communities you advise comply with laws such as the N.J. Planned Real Estate Development Full Disclosure Act, the Non-Profit Corporation Act, the Condominium Act, Fair Housing and others, and case law which has interpreted those statutes. The recently adopted “Radburn regulations” pose unique challenges to association governance, elections, and the amendment of documents - Jennifer L. Alexander, Esq.
9:50	Transition The law requires the sponsor to gradually surrender seats on the governing board as homes are closed, with those seats being filled by elected homeowners, who then manage the community. With this turnover comes the investigation of the homes and common facilities constructed by the developer, and association management, to discover the claims, both structural and financial, which the association may have against the sponsor. Understand the process, the involvement of other professionals, and case law in counselling associations in the conduct of transition litigation - Samuel J. McNulty, Esq.
10:35	Break
10:45	Governance and Operations This session will examine the duties and powers of a board and how a board is to discharge its obligations as required by the association’s governing documents. The management of any association takes an understanding of the governing documents, the adoption and implementation of rules and regulations, enforcement to deal with violations, insurance coverage, the interests of tenants versus owners, and partnering with other professionals to provide services to an association - Mary W. Barrett, Esq.
11:25	Delinquent Owners and Collections The pandemic has left associations with limited recourse against delinquent owners. The increase of unemployment filings and the impact the pandemic has had on the courts have forced associations to consider how best to fulfil their obligation to pursue owners for payment of assessments and to fund association operations. This session will evaluate the options of associations, such as filing liens, and obtaining and executing on judgments, as well as the unique obstacles created by mortgage foreclosures, the abandonment of homes, and the bankruptcy filings of owners - Robert J. Flanagan, Esq.
12:05	Current Issues and Legislative Updates This session will deliver an update of issues currently impacting associations, as well as pending and recent legislation relating to same. Discussion will include the concerns raised by COVID-19, such as immunity legislation, housing assistance bills, precautions in the usage of common facilities in communities, as well as electric car charging stations, and matters under consideration by the New Jersey Department of Community Affairs that impact common interest communities - Matthew Z. Earle, Esq.
12:50	Questions
1:00	Adjourn
