Can the owner of a condo unit that subject to a life estate sit on the condominium board if by-laws state only an owner can be a board member?
Owner can be interpreted more broadly than just the deed holder. It frequently includes individuals who have an equitable interest or direct control over the unit due to legal arrangements such as a life estate. That said, this can vary not only by local regulations but also by specific wording in your condo's by-laws.
Subtle differences in wording can sometimes result in significant implications. To be absolutely certain it would be wise to have a legal professional familiar with your local laws and specific by-laws to weigh in.
At Daisy Property Management, we've found that a broader interpretation of "ownership" often applies to the question of board eligibility. That said, it really all comes back to your specific by-laws. It's always beneficial to foster an inclusive environment, as many hands and minds can make light work of running a successful condo association.

The Importance of Corporate Bylaws?
Purpose of Corporate BylawsA corporation is a type of legal business entity created under state law. It offers certain liability protection to its owners. For example, if a creditor sues a corporation, the owners are not personally liable for the debt. Every corporation should have corporate bylaws drafted by its board of directors. Bylaws are one of the most important legal documents a corporation can possess. Corporate bylaws provide the framework of a corporation by outlining its rules, guidelines, and procedures. Corporate bylaws also outline the authority given to the corporation's directors and shareholders. Some individuals confuse bylaws with the articles of incorporation, which is the form used to establish a corporation within a certain state.Components of Corporate BylawsState law does not require a company follow a specific outline when creating corporate bylaws. A corporation should create bylaws crafted to the particular needs of its business. Depending on the nature of the business, bylaws can range from just a few pages to very lengthy. Common components in corporate bylaws include voting procedures, meeting times and dates, the role and salary of the corporation's officers, the length of term for directors, and the fiscal year of the corporation.Amending Corporate BylawsMost directors outline in the bylaws the requirements needed to amend the bylaws. Specific details should be included concerning who has the power to recommend amendments and the voting rules required to make changes. Corporate directors should keep bylaws current and make necessary amendments to reflect changes in the corporation. Keeping corporate bylaws current can help a corporation protect itself against legal liability.Understanding Corporate BylawsOnce corporate bylaws are drafted, every director, member and officer within the corporation should receive a coy of the bylaws to read. It is imperative that everyone understands the components of the bylaws. An attorney specializing in corporate law can help a corporation structure its bylaws in a way that best protects the business. Business owners who cannot afford legal counsel can find sample bylaws online that provide a basic outline of what to include and what not to include in the bylaws.

Is the common area of condominiums considered public as far as the building code goes?
Common area is the terminology used to describe real estate assets owned by a common interest community, owned in common by all owners, as opposed to assets completed owned by individual member owners, such as their individual condominium units or homes.Since the common area real estate is owned by the association, of course the local building code applies, but the area is not, by definition, open to the public.
