Informing the Legislature that on June 3, 2025, the Governor signed the following bill into law: SB385 SD1 HD1 CD1 (ACT 161).

This bill (SB 385, now Act 161) requires Hawaii condominium associations to provide unit owners with free electronic copies of their governing documents - including declarations, bylaws, and rules - upon request. It directly affects condo owners who can now access these documents electronically at no cost, and associations that must comply with this requirement. The key provision replaces previous rules that allowed associations to charge fees for document copies, ensuring electronic access is provided without cost. The law took effect on June 3, 2025, when the governor signed it into law.
