HOA and condo boards in Livonia operate under Michigan Condominium Act MCL 559 and the Nonprofit Corporation Act MCL 450.2101, with meeting, quorum, and notice duties set by statute and bylaws.
Board procedures for Livonia community associations follow Michigan state law rather than a local ordinance. The Michigan Condominium Act (MCL 559.101 et seq.) governs condominium associations, requiring annual meetings, written notice 10 to 60 days in advance, a quorum defined by the bylaws (often 35 percent), and the ability of co-owners to inspect records. Non-condominium homeowner associations are generally incorporated under the Michigan Nonprofit Corporation Act (MCL 450.2101 et seq.), which sets similar director election, meeting, and record-keeping rules. Boards must follow their recorded CCRs and bylaws on term length, vacancy fills, committee appointment, and open meeting access. Minutes must be maintained and available to members. Board members owe fiduciary duties and may be protected by business judgment rule when acting in good faith.
