Best Answer

There is no standard, black-and-white answer.

Your answer depends on the change, the state where you live, your governing documents and the authority of the management company.

If the change is extreme, for example, changing a hallway into a parking stall, or other non-nonsensical change of use, it may violate the governing documents.

If the management company is acting as a vendor of the board, the board is the entity responsible for the change of use, and the board may or may not have authority to make this change.

If the board is painting and re-carpeting the lobby, this may not be a change that requires an owner vote.

Can a condo association show a movie?

It depends on who owns the movie and who wants to show the movie. If the movie has been produced and is owned by a private party, and the private party grants rights to the association to show the film, then yes. If, however, a member owns or has access to a copy of a DVD or VHS movie with an owned copyright, and the association wants to show the film as part of an association agenda/ invitation/ announcement/ requirement, the association must request permission from the copyright owner before showing the film. Otherwise, if a few residents gather in the game room or a private residence and play a DVD or VHS movie without association involvement, no permission would be required.

What is association in ooad?

In Object-oriented design, association is a relation between two objects, for example, Car & Wheel have an association (that is, car contains wheels), Toolbar & Button have an association (that is, toolbar is composed of buttons), a Student is associated to Course (that is, a student can study a course). It can be strong association or weak association. If A is strongly associated to B then A cannot exist without B. In implementation terms, object A would be composed of object B & without creating B, creation of A is not possible. For example, a Toolbar cannot be created without creating a Button. If A is weakly associated to B then A can exist without B. For example, a Student can exist without the exitence of Course.

If a condo management company places a lien on your condo will you be locked out of it?

First, the conodminium association placed the lien, the management company just did the paperwork. A lien is placed on your condo to make sure you can't sell it without the back debts being paid. It is done to protect the association. This is usually done when assessments aren't paid on time. If you have fallen behind on your payments, then the association can withhold certain services, possibly even turning off utilities (depending on your documents and state law), but can't lock you out of your home. They can, however, foreclose on your unit if assessments continue to go unpaid.
