HIGH LEGAL RISK Sample Issue #1 of 2

Rules · Sec. 2 · Page 5

Why It’s Flagged

RCW Ch. 64.90 (Washington Uniform Common Interest Ownership Act — WUCIOA); RCW Ch. 64.90 (Washington Uniform Common Interest Ownership Act — WUCIOA); RCW 64.90.405(2)(k) (WUCIOA Notice, Opportunity to be Heard & Fine Schedule)

Under RCW 64.90.405(2)(k) (WUCIOA Notice, Opportunity to be Heard & Fine Schedule) and RCW Ch. 64.90 (Washington Uniform Common Interest Ownership Act — WUCIOA), an association cannot impose a fine or suspend common-area or voting rights without first providing written notice of the specific covenant violation, a reasonable opportunity to cure, and a formal opportunity to be heard under statutory timelines and fine limitations.

Sample Discussion Wording for HOA Counsel

For Board & Counsel Review

Update the fining and suspension procedure to require advance written notice of the specific violation, an opportunity to cure, a formal hearing procedure, and adherence to statutory fine limits under RCW 64.90.405(2)(k) (WUCIOA Notice, Opportunity to be Heard & Fine Schedule).
