Section 339-BB. Insurance  


Latest version.
  • The board of managers shall, if required by the
      declaration, the by-laws or by a majority of the unit owners, insure the
      building against loss or damage by fire and such other hazards as  shall
      be  required, and shall give written notice of such insurance and of any
      change therein or termination thereof to each unit owner. In the case of
      a qualified leasehold condominium, such insurance shall be  required  in
      any  event,  and shall be in an amount equal to full replacement cost of
      the building. The policy or policies of such insurance shall be  updated
      annualy  to maintain such insurance in such amount. Nothing herein shall
      prejudice the right of each unit owner to insure his own  unit  for  his
      own  benefit.  The  premiums for such insurance on the building shall be
      deemed common expenses, provided, however, that in charging the same  to
      the  unit  owners consideration may be given to the higher premium rates
      on some units than on others.
