How long are general or limited proxies valid for?

General or limited proxies are valid for a period not exceeding 90 days. This duration aligns with the regulations governing community associations in Florida. Proxies are important tools that allow members who cannot attend meetings to authorize another individual to vote on their behalf. The 90-day validity ensures that proxies remain relevant to the specific meeting or action they are intended for, while also maintaining the integrity of the voting process. Proxies that are valid for too long may lead to outdated decisions being made based on circumstances that have changed since the proxy was executed. Therefore, the 90-day timeframe strikes a balance between flexibility for members and the need for timely and informed voting.
