Can Condominium boards create a rule requiring owners to have email addresses? One of our condo owners does not have a working email and it seems can only be contacted through snail mail. It's hard to imagine functioning these days without an email address. I'm sure someone could help this owner out in creating a working email.
Sandra, I don't think is makes a difference what the reason is the condo owner doesn't or won't receive email. I believe there is a line somewhere in the Bylaws requiring all official notifications be delivered by USPS. I also believe an exception was made during the pandemic and I don't know if its been rescinded.
Your safest course of action is to carefully read your Bylaws and House Rules to see if there is any explicit wording on not requiring USPS delivery. To be totally safe, it's a simple question you can ask your attorney.

Exactly why isn't the email working? When you state that, then you can go from there. Doesn't understand internet, no phone? Doesn't have either? Is there a third party(neighbor/family member) who can relate issues? Emergency contact? Notices under door? Do they care for themselves/live alone? Maybe just don't want to give out their email. Financial issue? I'm sure someone can help IF1 they really wanted a useable email. Forcing someone to get an email will not work!
