In [redacted]’s written appeal, she advised, in writing, that the look of the home was intentional. However, [redacted] advised that she did in fact start to paint the garage doors and the trim. In addition, [redacted] advised that the season was not proper for painting.On October 13, 2015, a notice of hearing was sent to [redacted] with a Rules Enforcement hearing date of November 14, 2015.On November 14, 2015, the unit owner attended the Rules Enforcement hearing. The Rules Enforcement Committee is comprised of volunteer fellow residents. The decision of the committee was that the home was unsightly and was not up to standards and therefore the citation would stand.November 16, 2015 the unit owner received a correspondence advising that they were in violation and the infraction would stand. In that correspondence, [redacted] was advised of the ability to appeal to the Board of Directors if there was new and pertinent information.As an appeal was not received to the Board of Directors with new and pertinent information, on December 24, 2015 the citation was posted to the owners account.The initial correspondence in 2013, which the complaint states was not received, was not returned to the Association. I am not certain how the residents did not receive that correspondence but have received all other correspondences.In general, unsightly properties and the overall condition of properties is a key contribution to the preservation and increase of property values as well as to keep the community aesthetically pleasing. This, among many other violations is followed by the Association for the benefit of all residents.The complainant advises that they have had past issues with the receiving of mail; however, the Association does not have any record of mail concerns.

The Association is a not-for profit organization, incorporated for 40 years and the purpose is to provide services to owners. The Association follows the same due-process for all infractions/violations to ensure fair and equal treatment is demonstrated in all situations.Although the complainant is not satisfied with the outcome of the process, it was handled properly, professionally and efficiently.Please, for your records, attached please find copies of all documents as it relates to this matter.Should I be of further assistance, please do not hesitate to contact me.Sincerely,Cathleen D.Community Manager
