The Maryland Homeowners Association Act requires open meetings (Real Prop. § 11B-111) and owner access to association books and records (Real Prop. § 11B-112). Elections follow the declaration and bylaws, with electronic and proxy voting authorized by Real Prop. §§ 11B-113.2 and 11B-113.6.
Real Prop. § 11B-111 requires meetings of the HOA and its governing body to "be open to all members," with reasonable notice and owner comment time — at least one meeting a year must have an open agenda. Closed sessions are limited to enumerated topics (personnel, litigation, legal advice, delinquent assessment accounts), and the time, place, purpose, and vote to close must appear in the next minutes. Real Prop. § 11B-112 provides "all books and records kept by or on behalf of the homeowners association shall be made available for examination or copying" during normal business hours on reasonable notice, with narrow exceptions. Board elections follow the bylaws; Real Prop. §§ 11B-113.2 and 11B-113.6 authorize electronic votes, proxies, and virtual-meeting voting, preserving secret-ballot anonymity where required.
No fixed statutory fine. An owner denied an open meeting or records access may raise the dispute with the Attorney General's Division of Consumer Protection (Real Prop. § 11B-115) or seek a court order to compel compliance.
