I believe JulieS posted some time ago. I believe with some changes you could use it in your community.

Anytown, ST 99999
Dear _________ Family,
We have received a homeowner complaint _____________________ Your neighbors consider this a violation of the declaration of Covenants and Restrictions for (Association Name). This Board agrees with this opinion and we are asking that you please comply to this violation within 72 hours of receipt of this letter.
Every homeowner in (Association Name) is governed by the same set of rules- The Declaration of Covenants and Restrictions for (Association Name). A full text of this can be obtained on request by writing (Association Name), PO Box XXXX, Anytown IL 99999 or by download at our website (association website).
However, Article I Section 4 states in part “ ….no camping trailer, boat, mobile home, or other vehicle of any type whatsoever shall be parked, stored or left unattended, permanently or temporarily, on any lots, except in the garages of the lots”
Please consider this letter as your formal Notice of Covenants Violation according to Article III, Section 8 of the Covenants. You have the right to appear before the (Association Name) Board of Directors regarding this matter if you so choose.
However, if the Board determines that a violation of the covenants has continued which has not been remedied as specified, you will then have a stated period of time to remedy the situation before the Board assesses a reasonable fine not to exceed $50 per day. Such fines may include all costs to rectify the situation, including but not limited to, any legal fees incurred by the Board of Directors.
We are confident that this matter will be resolved in a timely manner and that no further action will be necessary.

Here are a couple of examples.

RE 37D Violations of Rules & Regulations
Dear Homeowner:
It has come to our attention that you or your tenants are storing a slab of granite in front of the unit and a screen door in the carport; and have a non-conforming unit number on the rear of the building.
Please see page 7 of the Homeowners Handbook. Number 14 states, "No…personal items shall be allowed to remain in the common area." Number 21 specifies: "Installation of unit numbers on the patio fences or carport area shall be in accordance with the standard approved by the Board of Directors." And number 22: "Doors, screens and windows must be maintained and properly in place."
We have provided space below for any response that you deem appropriate.
ACTION REQUIRED: Please comply with the rules and regulations as enumerated in the Handbook. Failure to do so by November 4 may result in a hearing before the board of directors and a fine.
Your cooperation will be greatly appreciated.

RE: 120B Oliva Court--Non-Compliance
Dear Homeowner:
It has come to our attention that you or your tenants have a bird house decoration in the common area and an unapproved lantern attached to the patio fence at Unit 120B.
In the Homeowner's Handbook, Page 7, it states, "No…personal items shall be allowed to remain in the common area." On Page 16 it states, "No…alteration…" can be made to the common area until "plans and specifications…have been submitted to and approved in writing by the Association's Board of Directors."
We have provided space below for any response that you deem appropriate.
ACTION REQUIRED: Please remove your personal items from the common area. Failure to comply will result in a hearing before the board of directors, a fine, and the association's paying to have the items removed and billing the cost back to the homeowner.
Your cooperation will be greatly appreciated.
Board of Directors

Dear homeowner,
The board has gotten together and taken a vote: We have decided, that despite the huge numbers of cactus present in the landscaping in your street (this being arizona and all), you sir are the biggest prick we could ever hope to find.
Please, get your act together.
sincerely
your board.
