Can the board fine me without a hearing?
Short Answer
Usually no - Florida law requires at least 14 days' written notice and a hearing before a committee that does not include officers, directors, or employees.
Relevant Florida Law
- Fla. Stat. § 720.305 - HOA fines require 14 days' notice and a hearing before an independent committee.
- Fla. Stat. § 718.303 - the same hearing process applies to condominium associations.
What This Means for Homeowners
- Check the date on the written notice you received.
- Confirm the hearing committee is not made up of officers, directors, or employees.
Common Mistakes to Avoid
Skipping the hearing - the fine cannot be imposed unless the committee approves it, so the hearing is your chance to show the violation was cured or did not happen.
