HB 18-1126

House Bill 18-1126, which has been signed into law, stops Homeowners' Associations (HOAs) from banning specific dog breeds or setting limits based on a dog's size or weight. However, HOAs can still enforce rules about noise control and cleanliness to maintain community standards. This means that HOA regulations will no longer unfairly target certain types of dogs just because of their breed or physical characteristics, but they can still manage issues like barking and waste disposal.

Official Summary

In the law governing common interest communities, the bill invalidates any covenant that prohibits the keeping of certain types of dogs based solely on a breed, weight, or size classification. Other regulations, such as the prevention of nuisance barking and requirements concerning the number of dogs per household and the disposal of waste, remain valid.
