Fines

Fines are also referred to as monetary penalties. Fines may be levied only after adoption and distribution to the membership of a reasonable fine schedule pursuant to the rule-making procedures of Civil Code section 4360, and after due process is afforded to the member being disciplined, including notice and hearing. (Civ. Code §§5850, 5855) Fine schedules frequently include varying levels of penalties depending upon the frequency and/or severity of the violation, continuing and/or repeated nature of the violation or other similar factors, and vary from community to community, depending upon demographic and related factors.
