§ 5311.031.
(A) Except as otherwise provided in the declaration, the boundaries between adjoining
units and appurtenant limited common elements may be relocated and the undivided interests
in the common elements appurtenant to those units may be reallocated by an amendment
to the declaration pursuant to the following procedures: (1)(a) The owners of the adjoining units shall submit to the board of directors of the unit
owners association a written application for the relocation and reallocation. The application shall be accompanied by the written consents of the holders of all
liens on those units, except liens for real estate taxes and assessments not due and
payable. (b) In the application, the owners of the adjoining units may request a specific reallocation
of their undivided interests in the common elements allocated to the adjoining units. (2) Unless the board of directors finds any requested reallocation of the undivided interests
in the common elements to be unreasonable, within thirty days after the board receives
the application, the association shall prepare, at the expense of the owners of the
adjoining units, an amendment to the declaration that is executed by the owners of
the affected units and that includes all of the following: (a) Identification of the affected units; (b) Words of conveyance between the owners of the units; (c) A specification of the undivided interests in the common elements, the proportionate
shares of common surplus and common expenses, and the voting powers of each unit resulting
from the relocation and reallocation, the total of which shall equal the interests,
shares, and powers of the former adjoining units. (3) At the expense of the owners of the affected units, the association shall record
the amendment to the declaration together with both of the following: (a) Any drawing, plat, or plans necessary to show the altered boundaries of the affected
units; (b) The dimensions and identifying number of each unit that results from the relocation
and reallocation. (B) Existing liens automatically shall attach to each unit that results from the relocation
and reallocation.
