This form is for dissolution of pooled unit by unit owners. Rhode Island Dissolution of Pooled Unit (By Unit Owners) is a legal process that allows unit owners in a condominium association or similar housing co-operative to dissolve the shared ownership structure and terminate the association. This dissolution can occur in various situations, such as when the unit owners decide to sell, convert the property, or cease the operation of the association. The process of Rhode Island Dissolution of Pooled Unit (By Unit Owners) involves several key steps. Firstly, the unit owners must initiate the dissolution by collectively agreeing to dissolve the association. This typically requires a majority or super majority vote, as specified in the association's governing documents or state laws. After obtaining the necessary approval, the unit owners need to formally declare their intention to dissolve the association by preparing a written notice. The notice should outline the reasons for dissolution, the proposed plan for distributing the assets and liabilities of the association, and any specific terms or conditions for the unit owners. Once the notice is prepared, a copy must be sent to all unit owners and any mortgagees or lien holders on the property. This ensures that all parties involved are aware of the impending dissolution and have an opportunity to review and respond to the proposal. In Rhode Island, there are two main types of Dissolution of Pooled Unit (By Unit Owners) processes: 1. Voluntary Dissolution: This type of dissolution occurs when the unit owners collectively decide to terminate the association willingly. They may choose to dissolve the association for various reasons, such as financial difficulties, inability to maintain the property, or diverging interests among the unit owners. Voluntary dissolution requires a majority vote by the unit owners, as specified in the association's governing documents. 2. Involuntary Dissolution: In some cases, the state may enforce the dissolution of the association due to serious violations of laws or regulations or prolonged non-compliance with the association's obligations. Involuntary dissolution may also occur when a court determines that the association's operations pose a significant threat to public health, safety, or welfare. The process of involuntary dissolution usually involves legal action initiated by the state or interested parties, leading to court intervention and a final order to dissolve the association. In both voluntary and involuntary dissolution, it is vital for unit owners to carefully follow the specific procedures outlined in the Rhode Island Real Estate Condominium Act or other applicable laws. Seeking legal advice from an attorney experienced in condominium law can help ensure compliance with all legal requirements and protect the rights and interests of the unit owners.
