Engrossment → Enrollment · 3 edits
MINOR
The bill moved from Engrossed to Enrolled status, which is a procedural step finalizing the legislation before it becomes law. The substantive policy content remains largely the same, though some section numbering and formatting were adjusted during the final review process. The bill authorizes condominium associations and cooperatives to hold virtual meetings and clarifies voting procedures for remote participation.
TECHNICAL

Section numbering was reorganized: Sections 4 and 5 were swapped in order, with the fiscal impact statement now appearing before the effective date section.

Section 3 was expanded to include additional amendments to cooperative meeting provisions (sections 29-1005.06, 29-1005.07, and 29-1008.11) that were previously listed in the bill's title but not detailed in the original text.

Minor formatting adjustments including page numbering and margin placement were corrected during the enrollment process.
