Proposed Rules §3 definition of “unit”:
“living space,” patio/balcony, the separating wall, and “all interior walls, doors, pipes, fixtures, wires, etc.“

CC&Rs definition of a “unit:
“The individual dwelling and its adjacent patio or balcony as the case may be shall constitute a “UNIT” as that term is defined in Civil Code Section 1350. All other parts and portions of the “Project” (as that term is defined in Civil Code Section 1350) shall be deemed to be a part and portion of the “Common Area”.

What are the consequences?
Costs of maintenance, repairs and replacement costs of elements located in Common Areas (walls) are shifted from the HOA to the homeowners.

Why it should be rejected?
A rule can clarify use and maintenance, but it cannot change the recorded property boundary between Unit and Common Area.
If the Board wants to redefine Unit components, that likely requires a CC&R amendment under Article X, not a rules adoption.
