HOA boards in Colorado Springs are governed by the Colorado Common Interest Ownership Act (CCIOA, CRS 38-33.3-101 through 319). Boards must hold open meetings with notice, maintain records available for owner inspection, provide financial reporting, and follow the association's declaration and bylaws. Board members have fiduciary duties to the association under Colorado law.
CCIOA applies to HOAs created after July 1, 1992; older associations have partial coverage. Board meetings must be open to owners with limited executive session for legal, personnel, or contract negotiation matters. Notice of regular meetings must be at least 10 days; special meetings 3 days. Annual budget ratification meetings require 10-to-60-day notice. Records must be maintained for at least 7 years and made available within 10 days of written owner request for a reasonable copying fee. Colorado's HOA Information Office in the Division of Real Estate provides owner education and complaint tracking (not enforcement).
Board violations of CCIOA can be challenged in court or through owner-filed complaints with the Division of Real Estate. Individual board members have statutory immunity for good-faith actions but can be personally liable for willful misconduct or self-dealing.
