Connecticut General Statutes
Chapter 825 - Condominium Act
Section 47-76. - Allocation of profits and expenses.

(a) The common profits of the condominium shall be distributed among the unit owners according to the percentage of the undivided interest in the common elements or be credited to their assessments for common expenses according to the stated percentage, or be used for any other purpose as the association of unit owners decides.

(b) Funds for the payment of current common expenses and for the creation of reserves for the payment of future common expenses and funds for improvements, replacements and additions shall be obtained by assessments against the unit owners in proportion to their percentage interests in the common elements; provided any declarant who owns a unit occupied by a holdover tenant may increase the rent of such tenant only by the amount of any such assessment for the payment of current common expenses not already included in the rent.
(c) Except as provided otherwise by the condominium instruments, any expenses associated with the maintenance, repair, renovation, restoration or replacement of any limited common element shall be common expenses, provided no expenses for repairs or reconstruction of units which occur prior to the original sale of the unit by the declarant shall be considered as a common expense.
(d) To the extent that the condominium instruments expressly so provide, any other costs incurred by the association caused by the negligence or wilful misconduct of any unit owner or his licensee or invitees, or for a specific service rendered to a unit owner which is different from services regularly rendered to all unit owners, shall be specially assessed against said unit owner in accordance with such reasonable provisions as the condominium instruments may make for such cases.
(1963, P.A. 605, S. 9; P.A. 76-308, S. 12, 36; P.A. 80-370, S. 3, 9; P.A. 81-319, S. 4, 6.)
History: P.A. 76-308 made provision for the division of common profits and assessment of common expenses according to the percentage to undivided interest in the common elements and provided that damage caused by negligence or wilful misconduct shall be specially assessed against the unit owner causing such damages if the condominium instruments so provide; P.A. 80-370 added provisos in Subsecs. (b) and (c); P.A. 81-319 amended Subsec. (b) to clarify that the rent of a holdover tenant may be increased “only” by the amount of any assessment for common expenses not already included in the rent.
Cited. 208 C. 318.
Subsec. (b):
As assessment was valid and calculation to correct the apportionment to each owner was ministerial, defendant's argument that the assessment was invalid has no merit. 114 CA 233.
