Concerns installation and maintenance of solar panels in common interest communities.

This bill prohibits homeowners' associations in New Jersey from banning solar panel installation on roofs of single-family homes (where the roof isn't common property) and townhouses (where the owner, not the association, is responsible for roof repairs). Associations may still set limited rules about installer qualifications, placement, color matching, and size - but cannot impose rules that increase installation costs by more than 10% or reduce panel efficiency. The law applies to standard homeowner associations, excluding developer-controlled communities. It clarifies existing protections for solar adoption while ensuring reasonable regulations don't create undue financial or functional barriers.
