What is standard practice for how frequently financial reporting is provided to condo and HOA owners?

Do most condo associations and HOAs raise their fees to match inflation. The CPI seems like a good way to do it.

I no longer live in my condo unit, but continue to receive a water bill. I called the utility company to turn everything off completely, but they say they cannot. I never signed a contract with them, my HOA did. Now I am past due and they are threatening "more action". What can they do legally? (In Florida)

We have two communities that share the pool. We have a contract that states there is to be a "Committee" to manage and operate the shared property. The BOD of each community has done the managing. My association finally set one up in January and I am on that committee.

We are changing to a new management company. we are opening up a new bank account under our building name using my information as the primary person on the account . Is this normal practice?
