I live in an HOA in Florida. Our board is somewhat power hungery. We have finally this week gotten them to agree to several committees. It has been brought to my attention by our MC that we can go no further with violations because we must have a fining committee in place (Florida Statue 720.305). I emailed the President asking about it and he said "the board will select three people to review any fines that may be imposed . That is a board function we intend to keep control of." I then asked "Is the board going to do this?" His response was "The board will select three people on a case by care basis to ensure that all portions of the Florida Statute are complied with" I do not understand. Is this committee not to be a standing committe with the same people on it and should they not hold regular meetings for each homeowner with unresolved violations for them to appeal before a fine is imposed?
P.S. Our board has only been in place since April 2005. Violations are happening and nothing is being done. The attitude now is if they can do it, so can I. It seems to me if we do "case by case" it could look like we are discriminating.
