The provision distinguishes between community apartment projects, condominiums, condominium projects, and stock cooperatives — each representing a different legal structure for shared or subdivided real property ownership. These definitions set the boundaries for which types of housing arrangements fall under the chapter's rules.
Plain English — not legal advice.
Property owners and managers operating under Anderson Code of Ordinances ch. 16.32 § 16.32.020 should be aware that the type of ownership structure — whether a community apartment project, condominium, condominium project, or stock cooperative — determines how the chapter's requirements apply to their property. Operators generally confirm which definition applies to their specific property type before taking actions governed by Chapter 16.32. Misidentifying the ownership structure could affect how other provisions of the chapter are interpreted in relation to a given property.
