Governor Scott signed the detrimental construction defects bill HB 1013 into law on Friday, April 27, 2012. This new law eliminates any notion of an implied warranty with respect to HOA common areas and improvements such as the streets, retention ponds, underground pipes and other neighborhood infrastructure. Unfortunately, your efforts to show the Governor's office that Florida homeowners opposed the bill wasn't enough to convince him to veto the bill.

This legislation is NOT favororable to communities. The next action will have to be to repeal it.
