Baltimore County - Nuisance Actions - Community Association

Summary

The bill lets qualifying nonprofit community associations in Baltimore County bring civil actions to stop code‑violating nuisances, but only after they give certified‑mail notices to the county code‑enforcement agency, tenants and owners. It defines which groups qualify, what counts as a nuisance, and which violations are excluded, and it removes a court‑bond requirement. Government agencies are shielded from these lawsuits.
