California HOA Requirements: Guidance and Support Throughout the Year

These responsibilities may include financial reporting, reserve planning, annual disclosures, board meetings, elections, homeowner communications, maintenance, insurance review, and recordkeeping.
Atlantic & Pacific Management helps boards organize these responsibilities by maintaining planning calendars, coordinating documents and communications, and working with the association’s professional advisors.

Annual Budget Report
California Civil Code § 5300: Associations generally must distribute an annual budget report 30 to 90 days before fiscal year-end. Includes operating budget, reserve, funding, and insurance disclosures.
Annual Policy Statement
California Civil Code § 5310: Distributed within the same 30-to-90-day period. Contains specified policies, procedures, and official contact information for members.
Reserve Study Review
California Civil Code § 5550: The board must review the study annually and arrange a visual inspection of accessible major components at least every three years when statutory thresholds apply.
Assessment Increases
California Civil Code § 5605: Increases are subject to statutory limits, disclosures, and possible member approval. Deed-restricted affordable units may have extra limitations.
Meetings and Elections
California Civil Code §§ 5100–5145: Timelines depend on action type, governing documents, and meeting dates. Electronic voting is permitted only when legal and election-rule requirements are met.
Missing a disclosure, notice, or election requirement can create complications for an association. For example, failure to meet certain annual budget reporting requirements can affect a board’s ability to impose an assessment increase without member approval.
Proactive Board Management
A well-maintained calendar gives the board and its management team time to coordinate information, consult the association’s advisors, and communicate effectively with homeowners.
