Except as provided in the declaration, the bylaws, or subsection (2) of this
section, the executive board may act in all instances on behalf of the
association. In the performance of their duties, the officers and members of the
executive board shall act in accordance with KRS 381.9170.
The executive board shall not act on behalf of the association to amend the
declaration, to terminate the condominium, or to elect members of the
executive board or determine the qualifications, powers, and duties, or terms of
office of executive board members, but the executive board may fill vacancies
in its membership for the unexpired portion of any term.
If the executive board adopts a budget for the condominium, the board shall:
(a) Provide a summary of the budget to all unit owners within thirty (30) days
after the adoption; and
(b) If the adopted budget contains an increase of greater than fifteen percent
(15%) from the previous year's budget, set a date for a meeting of the unit
owners to consider ratification of the budget, which meeting shall not be
less than fourteen (14) days nor more than thirty (30) days after providing
the summary. The budget shall be deemed ratified, whether or not a
quorum is present, unless at that meeting a majority of all the unit owners,
or any larger vote specified in the declaration, reject the budget. If the
budget is rejected, the periodic budget last ratified by the unit owners
shall be continued until such time as a subsequent budget is adopted by
the executive board in conformity with this subsection.
Except as provided in subsection (5) of this section, the declaration may
provide for a period of declarant control of the association, during which period
a declarant, or persons designated by him or her, may appoint and remove the
officers and members of the executive board. Regardless of the period
provided in the declaration, a period of declarant control terminates no later
than the earlier of:
(a) Sixty (60) days after conveyance of seventy-five percent (75%) of the
units which may be created to unit owners other than a declarant;
(b) Two (2) years after all declarants have ceased to offer units for sale in the
ordinary course of business;
(c) Two (2) years after any development right to add new units was last
exercised; or
(d) Seven (7) years after the first unit was conveyed to a unit owner other
than a declarant.
A declarant may voluntarily surrender the right to appoint and remove officers
and members of the executive board before termination of that period, but in
that event he or she may require, for the duration of the period of declarant
control, that specified actions of the association or executive board, as
described in a recorded instrument executed by the declarant, be approved by
the declarant before they become effective.
Not later than sixty (60) days after conveyance of twenty-five percent (25%) of
the units which may be created to unit owners other than a declarant, at least
one (1) member and not less than twenty-five percent (25%) of the members of
(6)
(7)
the executive board shall be elected by unit owners other than the declarant.
Not later than sixty (60) days after conveyance of fifty percent (50%) of the
units which may be created to unit owners other than a declarant, not less than
thirty-three and one-third percent (33-1/3%) of the members of the executive
board shall be elected by unit owners other than the declarant.
Not later than the termination of any period of declarant control, the unit
owners shall elect an executive board of at least three (3) members, a majority
of whom shall be unit owners or owners of equity interests in units. The
executive board shall elect the officers. The executive board members and
officers shall take office upon election.
Any provision of the declaration or bylaws to the contrary notwithstanding, the
unit owners, by a two-thirds (2/3) vote of all persons present and entitled to
vote at any meeting of the unit owners at which a quorum is present, may
remove any member of the executive board with or without cause, other than a
member appointed by the declarant.
