Below is a helpful tip from the Davis-Stirling.com Newsletter by ADAMS | STIRLING PLC regarding the special assessment information on the HOA website and communication . . .

QUESTION: Our board is using the HOA’s website to promote a special assessment. However, they blocked the response/comment box. –Joel W..

ANSWER: If the information about the special assessment is purely informational, the board is not required to provide equal access to members who want to oppose it. If, however, the board is using the website to urge members to vote for the assessment, they must provide equal access to members advocating a point of view on the issue. (Civ. Code § 5105(a).)
