HOA boards in Schenectady County follow the Business Corporation Law (if incorporated) or Not-for-Profit Corporation Law, plus the association's bylaws. Meeting notice, quorum, and voting rules come from the bylaws, not state HOA law.
Most Schenectady County HOAs are incorporated under NY Not-for-Profit Corporation Law, which sets minimum director standards, fiduciary duty, and meeting procedure. Condo boards follow RPL Article 9-B plus BCL. Cooperatives follow BCL. Bylaws set quorum thresholds (typically 10%–25%), notice periods (commonly 10–30 days), and election procedures. Open-meeting rules do not apply to private HOAs unless self-adopted. Record-keeping and owner inspection rights follow NPCL §621.
Derivative lawsuit remedies; removal of directors under NPCL §706 for cause.
