History: Laws 1982, ch. 27, § 47.
Compiler's notes. — This section is substantially similar to § 3-114 of the Uniform Condominium Act.
COMMISSIONERS' COMMENT
Surplus funds of the association are generally used first for the pre-payment of reserves, and remaining funds are thereafter credited to the account of unit owners or paid to them. In some cases, however, unit owners might prefer that surplus funds be used for other purposes (e.g., the purchase of recreational equipment). Accordingly, this section permits the declaration to specify any other use of surplus funds.
