Question:
If an amendment change is up for a vote amongst homeowners and ends in a tie, how is the tie broken? Go back to status quo as if no election took place?

Answer:
Hi Richard,
In Illinois, when a homeowners association amendment vote results in a tie, the method for breaking the tie should be outlined in the association’s governing documents, such as bylaws or election rules. If the governing documents do not specify a method, the HOA board may need to establish a fair procedure to resolve the tie.
