HOA Fines in Florida: Rules, Rights & Procedures
Florida HOAs can impose fines for violations of the community's rules and CC&Rs, but Florida Statutes §720.305 imposes strict procedural requirements. Before a fine exceeding $100 can be levied, the association must provide at least 14 days written notice and hold a hearing before an independent fining committee — not the board.
