(a) Board vote for removal.--Notwithstanding any other provision of law, a board of a common interest ownership community may, upon receipt of an opinion by independent legal counsel, consider an unlawful restrictive covenant to be repudiated by a vote of a majority of the members of the board and without further need for a vote by unit owners or approval from lenders on individual units, thereby repudiating the unlawful restrictive covenant.
(b) Unit owner request for repudiation.--If a unit owner in a common interest ownership community submits a written request to the board to repudiate an unlawful restrictive covenant, the board shall, no later than 90 days after receipt of the request, hold a meeting to determine whether an unlawful restrictive covenant exists and should be repudiated. If the board finds that an unlawful restrictive covenant exists and should be repudiated, the board shall take swift action to record the repudiation form.
