CED's Desk WWW.CAINE.ORG UNCERTAINTY AND ADVERSITY A ssociation board members throughout New England face ever-changing and more complicated questions surrounding the decisions they make in their volunteer leadership roles. Compounded by conflicting needs and wants of owners, unclear condominium documents and state and federal statutes, clear decision-making can become a moving target. CAI members and Condo Media readers have turned to the chapter and its many resources that provide the most current and updated industry information. This month, we tackle a variety of legal and legislative issues starting with the cover story addressing the top 10 legal questions posed by New England associations. We also draw attention to other legal issues taking center stage around the country with our recap of the 36th annual CAI Law Seminar. In addition to information about the CAI College of Community Association Lawyers and regional news stories provided by our member states, the annual legal directory will provide associations with a starting point when looking for attorneys familiar with the unique aspects of the community association industry.
