ABOUT THE EVENT:
Sen. James invites constituents to share community association issues and work with lawmakers to make owning a home a smoother process. She has also sponsored three bills during the 2025 Legislative Session to improve transparency and safeguard property owners from predatory associations. Senate Bill 106 would allow local governments to impose rent regulations, while Senate Bills 107 and 108 would provide protections for community association members and offer alternatives to legal involvement in the event of disputes. Sen. James intends to explore these legislative avenues while also hearing from residents who wish to share their lived experiences.
