AB 2460 Changes the Quorum Requirement for HOA Meetings in 2025

What is AB 2460 and How Does It Affect HOA Meetings?
Starting January 1, 2025, California’s Assembly Bill 2460 (AB 2460) will lower the quorum requirement for adjourned Homeowners Association (HOA) meetings to just 20% of voting members. This significant change means that if an HOA meeting doesn’t meet the original quorum threshold, the board no longer has to wait for a full turnout to reconvene the meeting. Instead, the meeting can proceed with just 20% of members voting in person, by proxy, or by secret ballot.

Why AB 2460 is Important for HOA Participation
Previously, if an HOA meeting failed to meet the quorum requirement, homeowners had to wait for a subsequent meeting with a full quorum before any decisions could be made. With the passage of AB 2460, the new lower quorum requirement empowers homeowners to take action more quickly, ensuring that business doesn’t come to a halt due to a lack of attendance. This change increases participation and allows the board to move forward on important matters without unnecessary delays.

How AB 2460 Benefits HOA Homeowners

Increased Participation
With the lower quorum requirement, your participation in HOA meetings becomes even more important. Since fewer members are needed to vote, your voice and vote will have a greater impact on decisions that shape your community.

Faster Decision-Making
The ability to reconvene meetings with fewer members allows for quicker resolutions on issues and more efficient decision-making. This ensures that HOA business can be conducted without waiting for additional meetings or a larger turnout.

Improved Accountability
This change helps ensure that the board can continue to make decisions and stay accountable to homeowners, even when attendance at a meeting falls short of the previous quorum requirements.

Conclusion
AB 2460 is a game-changer for HOA meetings, providing homeowners with more flexibility and influence in HOA governance. With a lower quorum requirement starting January 1, 2025, your participation in meetings and elections will matter more than ever. Stay informed, attend meetings, and get involved to ensure your voice is heard in shaping the future of your community!
