(a)     The street address and a legal description sufficient for identification of the premises upon which the structure or violation exists;

(b)     A brief and concise description of the conditions found to be in violation of these Regulations;

(c)     A statement of the action required to remedy the violation and that the action required to remedy the violation must be completed within 30 days from the date of the notice;

(d)    A statement that the Association, though action of the Board of Directors, may levy, impose, assess, and collect daily monetary fines in the amounts set forth in the daily monetary fine schedule against the owner and/or commence an action to restrain and enjoin the violation and recover reasonable attorney’s fees and costs if the violation is not timely remedied or corrected; and

(e)     A statement advising (1) that any person having any record title or legal interest in the property or structure may request a hearing on the correction notice before the Board of Directors, provided that the request is made in writing and filed with the Board within 30 days from the date of the notice, and (2) that failure to request a hearing will constitute a waiver of all right to a hearing and determination of the matter.

 

5.02  Correction Action – Enforcement – Venue & Attorney’s Fees and Court Costs

If the lot owner fails to take the required corrective action within 30 days from the date of the notice and fails to timely file a request for a hearing on the correction notice, or if the lot owner timely files a request for a hearing on the notice and the Board of Directors determines at such hearing that a violation exists and that the required action to remedy or correct the violation has not been taken by the owner, the Association may, upon the approval of the Board of Directors, exercise one or more of the following enforcement remedies against the violating owner, including a tenant:

    (a)   Assess daily monetary penalties against the owner for each violation according to a written schedule of daily monetary penalties developed and approved by the Board of Directors.  A daily monetary penalty up to fifty ($50.00) per day for each violation may be assessed by the Board of Directors for each and every day that a violation exists or has existed.  Each day that any violation exists or has existed shall be deemed a separate violation for which a daily monetary penalty may be assessed.  Assess a penalty of twenty-five dollars ($25.00) per incident for removing or tampering with a stop-work sign that has been posted.  The monetary penalties shall be due and payable by the owner to the Association and shall be subject to collection immediately upon their assessment by the Board of Directors.  If any monetary penalty is not paid within thirty (30) days of its assessment, interest shall accrue thereafter at the rate of eighteen (18%) per annum on the unpaid monetary penalties, and the Association may file a lien against the real property of the owner in the total amount of all monetary penalties assessed against the owner plus any accrued interest thereon and commence an action to collect the unpaid monetary penalties and interest thereon.  The venue of any action to collect unpaid monetary penalties and interest thereon shall be in Grant County, Washington. (06/22/2019)

(b)     Commence an action against the owner, including a tenant, to restrain and enjoin such violation in the Superior Court of Washington for Grant County. 

These remedies shall be cumulative and in addition to any other enforcement remedies set forth in these Regulations or in the Declaration.

In any action brought by the Association against any lot owner, including a tenant, to enforce any of these Regulations or any obligation herein contained, the prevailing party shall be entitled to recover his/her/their reasonable attorney’s fees, in addition to other costs allowed by law, and the venue for such action shall lie in Grant County, Washington.
