CC&R and Bylaw Amendment Votes
Amendments to your governing documents are secret-ballot matters under Civil Code § 5100(a)(1), and they usually carry a supermajority threshold written into the CC&Rs themselves. That makes the arithmetic, not the mailing, the risky part. We read your governing documents first, confirm what threshold actually applies, and certify the result against it.
Who this is for
Associations updating CC&Rs or bylaws, and boards whose amendment failed once already and cannot afford a second challenge.
What's included
- Governing documents read first to confirm the real threshold
- Voting power per separate interest determined under § 5110(c)(1)
- Ballots mailed with the amendment text and the board statement
- Result certified against the threshold your documents require
- Full record retained in case the amendment is later challenged
Where we run this
CC&R and Bylaw Amendment Votes for homeowners associations in San Diego County and Sacramento County. The count happens in public at your meeting under Civil Code § 5120, so we only take on elections where we can be in the room or on the call for it.
