Washington RCW 64.90 (WUCIOA) governs HOA board procedures for associations formed after July 2018. Boards must hold open meetings, keep records, and follow notice rules.
Homeowners associations in Auburn are governed primarily by Washington state law rather than city ordinance. The Washington Uniform Common Interest Ownership Act (WUCIOA), RCW 64.90, applies to all common interest communities created on or after July 1, 2018. For older associations, RCW 64.38 (Homeowners Associations) or RCW 64.34 (Condominiums) may apply. Boards must conduct open meetings with notice to members per RCW 64.90.525, keep minutes and financial records available for member inspection, hold annual membership meetings, and follow the governing documents (CC&Rs, bylaws, articles of incorporation). Executive sessions are allowed for specific matters such as personnel, legal advice, and member discipline but final decisions must occur in open session. Board members owe fiduciary duties of loyalty and care to the association. Violating open meeting or records requirements can expose directors to personal liability and allow members to seek injunctive relief in court.
