Answer:

Hi Pam,

According to Section 720.3085(c) of the Florida Homeowners Association Act:

“1. If an association sends out an invoice for assessments or a parcel’s statement of the account described in s. 720.303(4)(j)2., the invoice for assessments or the parcel’s statement of account must be delivered to the parcel owner by first-class United States mail or by electronic transmission to the parcel owner’s e-mail address maintained in the association’s official records.
2. Before changing the method of delivery for an invoice for assessments or the statement of the account, the association must deliver a written notice of such change to each parcel owner. The written notice must be delivered to the parcel owner at least 30 days before the association sends the invoice for assessments or the statement of the account by the new delivery method. The notice must be sent by first-class United States mail to the owner at his or her last address as reflected in the association’s records and, if such address is not the parcel address, must be sent by first-class United States mail to the parcel address. Notice is deemed to have been delivered upon mailing as required by this subparagraph.
3. A parcel owner must affirmatively acknowledge his or her understanding that the association will change its method of delivery of the invoice for assessments or the statement of the account before the association may change the method of delivering an invoice for assessments or the statement of account. The parcel owner may make the affirmative acknowledgment electronically or in writing.”
