Bill > S1263

This bill amends existing law to establish provisions regarding the imposition of fines by homeowner's associations (HOAs) for certain violations. The key provisions include: - HOAs must obtain a majority vote of the board before imposing any fine, and provide written notice to the member at least 30 days prior to the meeting where the vote will be taken. - If the member begins resolving the violation before the meeting, no fine shall be imposed as long as the member addresses it in good faith. - No portion of the fine can be used to increase compensation for board members or agents. - For violations involving safety, common property damage, disturbing the peace, or destruction of another member's property, the 30-day notice requirement does not apply, but the HOA must still make a reasonable effort to contact the member before imposing the fine. - Members can petition the board for a hearing to dispute or appeal any fine assessed under this exception within 30 days of receiving notice. - The bill also contains provisions regarding HOA restrictions on rentals, solar panels, political signs, and flags/flagpoles.
