Governance Committee Meeting


At their March meeting, the members of the Governance Committee worked on a fine schedule.  An important goal was to create fines high enough to be a deterrent, but low enough to actually be applied and accepted.  The following possibilities were discussed:

1.  Try to list all possible violations and assign a fine to each.

2.  Group violations together by type of rule violated.
• Guideline violation  $100 to $500
• Policy violation        $500 to $1000
• Covenant violation  $1000 to $5000

3.  Group violations together by area impacted.
• Own property violation   $100 to $500
•  Neighbor’s property violation   $500 to $1000
• Common property violation       $1000 to $5000
 
These options will be reviewed by the committee for further discussion at the next meet-
