CHARM Maryland, in furtherance of our Vision and Mission, 
OPPOSES SB332 Master Insurance Deductible

This bill is not in the best interest of homeowners living in condo associations because it increases their out-of-pocket expenses, goes down slippery slope of additional costs, and we don’t support the state requiring any level of insurance.

OPPOSES HB453 Grants to Seniors

Although we support the concept of state programs to help defray costs for homeowners, there are other condo owners – in addition to seniors – impacted by ever-increasing monthly assessments (e.g., single parents, low-income families). We are also concerned with the establishment of a new grants program in the current year due to economic considerations.
