Policy for violations

The board is developing a policy for how they are handling violations to the cc&r's. Do we have to offer an appeal process??

We are only in the draft process and are in need of advice.

At this time, in short form:
1.Courtesy conversation, only if the board feels it will be effective.
2. Written warning, first class usps mail. 30 days to comply.
3. 2nd warning, certified usps. 30 days to comply and a $50.00 fine.
4. If not compliant within 30 days will turn over to an attorney.

Any comments to add or change, or advice is greatly appreciated!

Thanks

Mindy, I think 30 days is way too long for most violations. Also, the owner should have the right to a Hearing prior to any fine being levied. Also, you want to seached and read previous threads on this subject.

MindyR: I'm not sure ALL PARTIES would define a 'courtesy conversation' in the same way. So, to avoid problems at the outset, I would not suggest including point #1, as stated above

What do your official docs state re a process for enforcing violations? Refer also to your state's Planned Community Act, or Condo Act for info.
It's good to know what the state requires should the violation ever escalate with possible court action.
