California's Davis-Stirling Act governs nearly every aspect of HOA life, yet many attorneys encounter its provisions piecemeal rather than as a coherent whole. Michael B. Kushner of MBK Chapman surveys the statute from the ground up, covering elections, member discipline, architectural guidelines, finances, and maintenance and repair obligations. The program then drills into the areas attorneys encounter most often in practice: homeowner access to HOA documents, annual disclosure and financial reporting requirements, and the hierarchy of governing documents under Civil Code 4205. Attendees will leave with a clear, statute-based framework for understanding how the Davis-Stirling Act structures HOA authority and where boards most frequently exceed it.
