Sec.47-295-2. Program description

(a) The Commissioner shall implement and administer a program monitoring the conversion of properties into common interest communities. If a declarant is planning to convert into a condominium or other common interest community any building which contains a unit last occupied as a rental dwelling unit, then before the common interest community is created, the declarant shall pay a $50 registration fee per unit being converted and file with the Department such information regarding the conversion property and its tenants as is required herein. No person shall offer to sell, sell or otherwise dispose of any unit in a common interest community until such registration is duly filed and the fees are paid.

(b) The Commissioner is authorized to receive complaints of any violations of Sections 47-282 through 47-293, inclusive, of the General Statutes, and any other law concerning the conversion of dwelling units into common interest communities. The Commission shall cause investigations of such violations to be made and shall make every effort to ensure compliance with such laws. If the Commissioner believes such laws are being violated, he shall refer the matter to the Attorney General for further enforcement.

(Effective May 23, 1988)
