Bradenton and Sarasota are two of the most densely HOA-governed markets in Florida. From the waterfront communities of downtown Bradenton and the island condos of Siesta Key and Longboat Key to the master-planned villages of Lakewood Ranch and the historic neighborhoods of downtown Sarasota — virtually every multi-unit residential development in this market operates under some form of community association governance. The January 2026 compliance deadline has passed. Most are not compliant. Here is your local action guide.
Based on public records research across Manatee and Sarasota counties, the associations most likely to be currently non-compliant are smaller condo communities established before 2000, self-managed associations with volunteer boards, and associations managed by CAM companies using generic portal subdomain systems that do not constitute independent association-controlled websites under the statute. These associations are not non-compliant by choice — most boards are simply unaware of the specific requirements or are waiting for guidance that has not arrived.

HB 1021 and Florida Statute §718.111 are enforced by the Florida DBPR — not by local county authorities. Any unit owner can file a DBPR complaint against a non-compliant association at myfloridalicense.com. The DBPR investigates and can impose fines regardless of county location. There is no local enforcement variation — the statute applies uniformly across Florida.
