- Chapter 5 Unit Owners
Chapter 5 - § 5.15 • TERMINATION OF THE COMMUNITY
Jurisdiction | Colorado |
A common interest community may only be terminated with the agreement of the unit owners, with two exceptions: (1) a taking of all the units by eminent domain, or (2) foreclosure against an entire cooperative of a security interest that has priority over the declaration.265 The CCIOA requires that unit owners of units to which at least 67 percent of the votes in the association are allocated, or any larger percentage specified in the declaration, must approve termination.266 The agreement to terminate must be evidenced by execution of a termination agreement or ratifications of it by the requisite number of unit owners in the same manner as a deed.267
