	LEGISLATIVE COUNSEL'S DIGEST


   AB 1838, as introduced, Charles Calderon. Common interest
developments: association records.

association must provide to a prospective purchaser upon request.
Existing law requires the association to also provide a specified
form that contains an estimate of the costs associated with providing
the prospective purchaser with the requested documents.
   This bill would require that the financial disclosure form
described above be written in at least 10-point type.
   Vote: majority. Appropriation: no. Fiscal committee: no.
State-mandated local program: no.
