Combining planned communities
Official statutory text
A. Any two or more planned communities may be combined into a single planned community upon approval by the lot owners in each planned community by the same vote required to terminate that planned community. If the planned communities to be combined are managed by more than one association, the associations shall be combined into one association in accordance with the applicable provisions of law.
B. The agreement to combine shall not be effective until it is filed for registry in accordance with R.S. 9:1141.4(D) in every parish in which a portion of the combined planned community is situated and, if associations are combining, until the articles of merger or consolidation of the associations are filed with the secretary of state.
C. Every agreement to combine shall provide for the reallocation of common expense liabilities, common surpluses, and voting interest to each lot by either stating the reallocations or the formulas upon which they are based or stating the percentage allocated to all of the lots comprising each of the preexisting planned communities.
