Below is a helpful tip from the Davis-Stirling.com Newsletter by ADAMS | STIRLING PLC regarding rewriting the HOA CC&Rs . . .
QUESTION: Our CC&Rs say we need 51% membership approval to rewrite our CC&Rs to bring them up to date with current laws. We were told 51% means 50% plus 1. – Pat K.
ANSWER: No, that is not what it means. If you have 100 homes, 51% results in 51 votes. If you have 300 homes, 51% results in 153 votes, not 151 votes. If you have 500 homes, 51% results in 255 votes, not 251 votes. Whoever told you 51% means 50% plus 1 gave you bad advice.
