TITLE 18. PROFESSIONAL AND OCCUPATIONAL LICENSING
Common Interest Community Management Information Fund Regulations
Notice of Intended Regulatory Action

Notice is hereby given in accordance with § 2.2-4007.01 of the Code of Virginia that the Common Interest Community Board intends to consider amending 18VAC48-60, Common Interest Community Management Information Fund Regulations. The purpose of the proposed action is to conduct a full general review to ensure the Common Interest Community Management Information Fund Regulations are the least burdensome while still protecting the public in compliance with subsection E of § 2.2-4007.1 of the Code of Virginia and the principles of Executive Order 17 (2014).

The regulations will also be reviewed for consistency, and language may be amended to ensure the regulations are clearly written and easily understandable by affected parties and the general public. The board may propose other changes it identifies as necessary during the regulatory review process.
