The Colorado Common Interest Ownership Act creates a framework for the creation and operation of common interest communities. Common interest communities include condominiums, co-ops, retirement communities, vacation timeshares, and other housing developments comprised of individually owned units, in addition to shared facilities and common areas such as playgrounds, parking lots, and swimming pools. In the case of condominiums and some neighborhoods with single-family homes, the management and funding of the shared facilities and common areas are facilitated through a homeowners' association. This bill invalidates any HOA covenant that prohibits the keeping of certain types of dogs based solely on a breed, weight, or size classification. An HOA may regulate the number of dogs per household, and may enforce covenants concerning dog or owner behavior, including nuisance barking and waste disposal. 02:07:29 PM Representative Rosenthal answered committee members' questions. 02:23:10 PM Duane Gall, representing the Office of Legislative Legal Services, answered committee questions. 02:36:53 PM Christy Wooten, representing herself, testified in support of the bill. 02:42:40 PM Aubyn Royall, representing the Humane Society of the United States, testified in support of the bill. 02:52:12 PM Janet Stephens, representing the Flatirons Kennel Club, testified against the bill. 02:54:03 PM Linda Hart, representing the Colorado Federation of Dog Clubs, testified in a neutral capacity. 03:03:46 PM Tara Bostick, representing herself, testified in support of the bill. 03:05:27 PM Davyd Smith, representing No Kill Colorado, testified in support of the bill. 03:07:32 PM Roland Halpern, representing Colorado Voters for Animals, testified in support of the bill. 03:10:38 PM Scott Pfund, representing himself, testified in support of the bill. 03:19:29 PM Don Schneider, representing himself, testified against the bill. 03:23:04 PM Stan Hrincerich, representing the Colorado HOA Forum, testified against the bill. 03:28:20 PM Virginia Morrison Love, representing the Colorado Association of Home Builders, testified against the bill. 03:31:31 PM Suzanne Leff, representing Community Associations Institute, testified against the bill and presented a handout [Attachment C]. 03:40:57 PM Lee Greenwood, representing Best Friends Animal Society, testified in support of the bill and presented a handout [Attachment D]. 03:50:15 PM Representative Rosenthal distributed and explained Amendment L.001 [Attachment E]. 03:55:55 PM Representative Rosenthal wrapped up his presentation to the committee. 03:55:55 PM Motion Adopt amendment L.001 Moved Rosenthal Seconded Gray Coleman Gray Lebsock Liston McKean Ransom Reyher Rosenthal Thurlow Valdez Wilson Exum Singer YES: 0 NO: 0 EXC: 0 ABS: 0 FINAL ACTION: Pass Without Objection 04:00:56 PM Motion Refer House Bill 18-1126, as amended, to the Committee of the Whole.
