This proposed legislation provides that no homeowner's association may add, amend, or enforce any covenant, condition or restriction that limits or prohibits the installation of solar panels or collectors on any property rooftop or structure within the homeowner's association jurisdiction. A homeowner's association may adopt reasonable rules regarding solar panel or collector placement, if those rules do not prevent installation, impair functioning, restrict use, or adversely affect the cost or efficiency of the device. These provisions only apply only to rooftops owned, controlled, and maintained by the homeowner.
