HOA Rulemaking/Regulation
Administrative rulemaking plays a major role in determining how HOA laws function in practice. In Nevada, the rulemaking process is administered by the Nevada Real Estate Division under NRS Chapter 233B (Nevada Administrative Procedures Act) while the Commission for Common-Interest Communities and Condominium Hotels serves as the approving authority (see NRS 116.615) Regulations adopted through this process can affect enforcement authority, fine levels, transparency, governance rights, and dispute resolution within common-interest communities. Because rulemaking decisions can influence HOA governance for many years, residents are encouraged to review current proposals, submit written comments, and participate in public workshops or Commission meetings so their perspectives become part of the public record.
This page is intended to help homeowners stay informed on proposed regulations and understand how they may impact Nevada communities. It supplements the Division’s official rulemaking notices and information available on its website under Workshops and Adoptions. Nevada HOA regulations are found in NAC 116A. The Workshop meeting are typcally held in conjunction with quaterly CICCH Commission meeting where agenda, support materials, and submissions can be found.
Current effort LCB File No. R091-25
On Decemeber 9, 2025 the Commission held it first public workshop. A second workshop was held March 10, 2026. The proposed regulation LCB File No. R091-25 can be found here. The proposal seeks major changes to HOA enforcement, including Section 2 defining “health, safety, or welfare” violations that could rasie fines for the current $100 per violation maximum to as much as $10,000 per violation and Section 4 permitting informal resolution of alleged violations during Division investigations. This will give excessive authority to NRED and further erode owner trust in Division investigations. NVHOAReform has raised concerns regarding expanded enforcement authority and reduced transparency. The full NVHOAReform submission (shown under my name Mike Kosor) can be found on the Commission web site here. A comparison of NVHOAReform and industry counsel (CAI) can be found here. The next meeting is anticpated June 9, 2026 where final action could be taken on some or all propsoed changes. Use the Subscribe button to get updates. No fees to join the Coaltion.

Homeowners still have time to make their voices heard. NVHOAReform strongly encourages members to email or write the CIC Commission (gmallo@red.nv.gov) and share their views before the rule is adopted.
