THE 'ILLIBERAL' RESIDENTIAL ASSOCIATION Sample Clauses

THE 'ILLIBERAL' RESIDENTIAL ASSOCIATION. Although residential association rules typically focus on maintaining common facilities, common services, architectural standards, and appropriate upkeep by each property owner, these rules may extend far beyond property maintenance to regulate important aspects of both private and public life within the association. Occupancy restrictions may prohibit children [this is now illegal under federal law] or unrelated cohabitants; a right of first refusal may give the board of directors or a majority faction of an association the power to refuse prospective buyers on grounds of financial or social incompatibility.

Federal civil rights law forbids discrimination by private persons in the sale of homes on the basis of race, color, religion, sex, or national origin, and some state civil rights laws also forbid housing discrimination on other grounds, such as marital status. These laws, however, replicate only a portion of the constitutional restraints on public governments a...
