Summary
The bill stops homeowners in common interest developments from being blocked by HOA documents when they replace windows with ones that meet California’s Energy Code. It also requires cities and counties to approve such replacement projects administratively, without hearings, unless there’s a proven health or safety risk. The goal is to speed energy‑saving retrofits while protecting historic buildings.
