In Episode 23 of the podcast, we took our first look at one of the issues arising from the Champlain Towers collapse in Southern Florida. The subject of that podcast was building code enforcement.  As further investigation into the disaster continues, more information is coming out about the condition of the building and the Homeowners Association’s efforts to deal with the building’s maintenance issues and to pay for the extensive needed repairs.  This likely very common situation gives rise to the multifaceted issue of condominium governance, especially as these buildings age.  Today we speak with Evan McKenzie, a professor at the University of Illinois, Chicago, a prominent authority on how these private governmental bodies attempt to meet the needs of the buildings that they operate and the residents they serve. This is a fascinating and complex subject that will undoubtedly attract the attention of construction lawyers now and in the future.
