ANNOTATIONS

Compiler's notes. — This section is substantially similar to § 3-109 of the Uniform Condominium Act.

COMMISSIONERS' COMMENT

Mandatory quorum requirements lower than 50 percent for meetings of the association are often justified because of the common difficulty of inducing unit owners to attend meetings. The problem is particularly acute in the case of resort condominiums where many owners may reside elsewhere, often at considerable distances, for most of the year.
