Following a board or management company’s attempts to rectify the situation with warning letters, the board can impose fines and refuse privileges to the common amenities if permitted by the association’s governing documents. If a unit owner or tenant continues not to comply, PKK can pursue legal avenues, such as mediation, arbitration, and filing suit. In the case of a noncompliant tenant, the association board has the option to bring an eviction action and charge all fees and costs to the owner due to his or her tenant’s misconduct. We encourage boards to openly communicate the association’s rules to its owners and their tenants to avoid disputes.
