• The Commission has bad motives for pursuing the proposed law.
See Exhibit pp. 1-3, 6.
• The proposed law would confuse CID homeowners. See Exhibit p.
1.
• The proposed law would somehow make it easier for boards to
violate open meeting and document disclosure requirements. See
Exhibit p. 7.
• Public notice of the Commission’s process has been insufficient.
The Commission should take out full page ads in every major
California paper for a month and mail notice to the owner of every
California CID separate interest (currently estimated at 4.8 million
units). See Exhibit p. 5.
• The proposed law does not include reforms that Ms. Vanitzian
believes are needed. For example, the proposed law does not
impose penalties on errant board members, establish a victims’
restitution fund, or require statutory warnings to new purchasers.
See Exhibit pp. 6-7, 8.
Ms. Vanitzian also objects to the use of the phrase “voluntary waiver” in the
proposed law, which she insists must be removed. See Exhibit pp. 8-9. The staff
does not understand this objection. The proposed law does not include the
phrase “voluntary waiver.” The terms “waive” and “waiver” are only used in
two sections of the proposed law. See proposed Sections 4525, 6000. In each case,
Any California Law Revision Commission document referred to in this memorandum can be
obtained from the Commission. Recent materials can be downloaded from the Commission’s
website (www.clrc.ca.gov). Other materials can be obtained by contacting the Commission’s staff,
through the website or otherwise.
The Commission welcomes written comments at any time during its study process. Any
comments received will be a part of the public record and may be considered at a public meeting.

the language used in the proposed law continues existing law. In neither case
does the usage have any apparent negative effect on the rights of homeowners.
Respectfully submitted,
Brian Hebert
Executive Secretary
