Q: Can my condo board demand to have a key to allow an unlicensed (CAM LIC) maintenance employee to have access my condo ?
The bylaws state owners must give a set of keys to board who then allows a maintenance employee to have access to my condo & they don't give me 24 hrs notice the or regularly scheduled maint like changing fire alarm / voice call batteries. Don't I have the right of exclusion ?
A:
Maintenance people are not required to have a CAM license. Florida Statutes grant associations the right to enter into a unit during reasonable hours. There is no exemption for the statute and if you refuse the association can change the locks and bill you for the charges.
The association has a right to enter at any time if there is an emergency.
