CAI needs your help opposing two bills that would significantly impact community associations like yours. The Georgia Legislature is considering two critical bills—SB 107 and SB 108—that would be devastating for community associations in the state. Your voice is needed to help protect the financial stability and governance of Georgia’s homeowners’ associations and condominiums.

If passed, these bills would:

• Waive assessments for certain homeowners for at least 12 months, increasing costs for others.
• Require associations to refund previously waived assessments.
• Make association liens subordinate to unpaid medical bills.
• Mandate alternative dispute resolution—at the association’s expense—for any lot owner, including assessment disputes.
• Prohibit foreclosure on liens that include fines, late fees, or court costs, making it harder to enforce community rules.
• Establish a Community Association Ombudsman’s Office to oversee elections, investigate complaints, and recommend fine waivers.
• Require associations to pay $25 per unit/lot annually to fund the Ombudsman’s Office, increasing financial strain on communities.

Contact your Senators as soon as possible and urge them to OPPOSE SB 107 and SB 108. Your outreach can help ensure fair, effective policies that protect all homeowners—not just a select few.
