Amending Florida HOA covenants generally requires a two-thirds vote  The process involves drafting amendments with legal counsel, providing formal notice to members, holding a vote, and recording the finalized amendment with the county. 
Steps to Amend Florida HOA Covenants
  • Review Existing Documents: Identify the specific amendment procedures outlined in the current Declaration of Covenants, Conditions, and Restrictions (CC&Rs) and Bylaws.
  • Draft Amendments: Work with an attorney experienced in Florida HOA law to draft clear, legal language.
  • Board Approval: Present the proposed amendment to the board of directors for approval to move to a membership vote.
  • Notice to Members: Provide proper notice of the proposed changes and the meeting where the vote will occur, adhering to statutory timeframes.
  • Member Vote: Conduct the vote, which often requires a two-thirds majority (or lower, if allowed by specific governing documents). Florida law allows for electronic voting.
  • Record the Amendment: Once passed, the amendment must be recorded in the public records of the county where the community is located.
  • Notify Members: Within 30 days after recording, the HOA must provide copies of the amendment to all members. 
Key Considerations in Florida
  • Strict Compliance: Failure to follow the specific procedures in your governing documents can make the amendment invalid
