As Colorado starts to prepare for the 2015 legislative session, construction defect reform is shaping up to be another key issue under the Capitol dome. Once again, the Homeownership Opportunity Alliance (HOA) will be leading the charge. The HOA is a coalition of Coloradans working to open the doors to homeownership by: 1) protecting consumers from unknowingly entering into litigation and establishing solid processed through which homeowners and developers can work together to achieve a positive resolution to identified defects in construction, and 2) increasing the supply of attainable, affordable housing while protecting the rights of consumers to take legal action.
The HOA’s coalition partners include:
| American Subcontractors Association Apartment Association of Metro Denver Associated Builders and Contractors Associated General Contractors Building Jobs 4 Colorado Colorado Association of Home Builders CO Assoc. of Mechanical & Plumbing Contractors CO Assoc. of Plumbing-Heating-Cooling Contractors Colorado Civil Justice League Colorado Competitive Council Colorado Concern Denver Metro Chamber of Commerce | Denver South Economic Development Partnership Douglas County Commissioners Downtown Denver Partnership Heating, Air-Conditioning, Refrigeration Professionals Hope Communities Housing Colorado Independent Electrical Contractors Metro Denver Economic Development Corp.
