- Topic:
- Assessments · Utility privilege
- Applies to:
- Condo associations
If the association is in good faith, it has a separate privilege for the portion of an unpaid assessment that pays water, sewer, electric, or gas for that parcel, preserved like §1123.115. Before a parish or city sues for those utilities it must notify the association, which then lists delinquent units and notifies each owner.
