What this means for boards

• With no statewide mandate confirmed here, check your governing documents and any lender requirements. They can require a study even where the statute does not.
• A current reserve study is still the usual way to show the board planned for major repairs with care.
• Keep the study, the board's funding decision and the reasons for it on record.
• Ask your association's attorney how the rules apply to your community.

What this means for reserve preparers

• Confirm which statute governs the association before you scope the work: condominium, planned community and cooperative acts often differ.
• Match the study level and site visit to what the statute requires.
• Cite the statute in the report so the board can see what the study satisfies.
