Covenant Enforcement
Required by law to follow up and review complaints
Had been assured that people would follow rules
We are at a crossroad, with not everyone willing to comply
Last year had voted in ability to bring lawsuit
Found that it may coat as much as $20k to bring lawsuit
Would require a special assessment
If found in favor of HOA, homeowner may be responsible for costs, but may not pay
Still no guarantee of compliance
Current issue had 2 members file complaints
Met with homeowner, got agreement, but didn’t follow through
Some homeowners feel that they do not need to follow covenants
Could the community help with cleanup activities?
Douglas County will not intervene in HOA covenants violations
Need to review options with the community
Other similar HOA’s have imposed fines
Our HOA as no way to enforce because we have no fining ability
Would have to vote to amend covenants according to the bylaws
HOA board will review equivalent HOA policies
Some based on categories with different fines
HOA will send out a proposal
Raise complaints with Douglas County asking to enforce county violations?
May have to have special meeting to review further
Motion proposed by Bob for board to review and propose solution
Second: Erin
Voted to approve
