House Rules would apply to renters as well, otherwise, and as JG indicates, there would be discrimination against owners by allowing renters a free for all and expecting owners to abide by house rules. That certainly would not support a "community spirit".

There was a rule versus "precedent" (an accepted pattern). That rule has been changed, which your governing board is allowed to do.

Regulated renters are governed for some items and to protect you from such items as repairs, rent increases, safety, security, habitability etc. But they do not exempt you from house rules.

Original regulated/controlled tenants in a coop are NOT subject to coop house rules. They are only subject to what is in their lease. This is a fact Google it.
