SwedelsonGottlieb Leads the Way in Rules To Address Hoarding

By Sandra L. Gottlieb, Senior Partner, SwedelsonGottlieb

Our firm’s work with United Laguna Hills Mutual, a large master community association, is attracting some attention. Follow this link to an article from the Orange County Register. SwedelsonGottlieb assisted the association in crafting a new rule to deal with this association’s serious hoarding problem. Among other things, the new rule defines when the line is crossed from harmless clutter to a hoarding problem that creates a fire and/or health hazard that must be dealt with. The association’s efforts to address hoarding were also highlighted in a recent issue of Community Association Institute’s Common Ground magazine.
