Section § 6622

Explanation

This law requires that the official founding document (articles of incorporation) of an association that manages a commercial or industrial shared-interest development must include a statement. This statement should specify that the corporation is meant to manage such a development, provide the office location, and list the managing agent's details, if applicable. Additionally, any similar documents filed before 2014 following older rules are still considered valid under this law.

(2)CA Civil Law Code § 6622(a)(2) States the business or corporate office of the association, if any, and, if the office is not on the site of the common interest development, states the front street and nearest cross street for the physical location of the common interest development.
