When board members think they have unlimited power, they run the risk of going too far when handling unit owner alterations. Carol Sigmond, partner at GreenspoonMarder, shares eye-opening stories from her legal practice, including one particularly puzzling case involving dangerously hot walls and a board's baffling response that turned a straightforward renovation into months of conflict.

Sigmond discusses the fine line between reasonable oversight and overreach, plus reveals her three key takeaways for boards navigating alterations in today's changing regulatory landscape. Whether you're dealing with construction defects, climate law requirements, or just trying to set fair policies, this conversation offers insights that could help your board avoid serious legal trouble down the road. Habitat's Paula Chin conducts the interview.
