■ Discussion of deck repairs and what the HOA is responsible for. Bruce recommends that decks are the HOA responsibility for repairs only if decks were original. If a homeowner adds a deck, then it’s the responsibility of the homeowner. We need a way to keep up with additions that owners are responsible for.
