Homeowners' associations can prohibit no-impact home-based businesses with 90% approval, but can reverse this with a simple majority vote.
New York S08718 allows homeowners' associations to include provisions in their declaration, bylaws, or recorded covenants and restrictions that prohibit the use of a residence for a no-impact home-based business. Such prohibitions require approval from at least ninety percent of the total eligible voters of the homeowners' association. The bill also mandates that any such prohibition include a provision stating that it may be eliminated by a simple majority vote.
