Associations are required to provide “fair and efficient” means for unit
owners to resolve disputes between one another or against the

It is referred to as alternative dispute resolution (ADR). This is required

opportunity to be heard, with or without counsel, with respect to the
to the violation asserted.
The applicability of ADR to a unit owner’s complaint shall require a
determination of whether it relates to a discretionary board
management decision or constitutes a violation of governing
documents (Master Deed, Bylaws, Association Rules, etc.). Matters in
which boards properly exercise discretion are subject to review
through the democratic process (petitions, elections, etc.) while
violations of governing documents or other legal requirements justify
the use of the ADR procedure. The unit owner should make the
request to proceed to ADR in writing to the board. The request should
refer to specific laws or portions of the governing documents which the
unit owner believes were violated.
Any party to a dispute with the association may request mediation of
the dispute by an impartial mediator appointed by the Board of
Directors in order to settle the dispute in a “fair and efficient” manner.

The board or its members or agent or representative can appear and
present the boards position. If a dispute arises between two or more

If a conflict of interest is evident between a Board member(s) and the
unit owner(s) outside mediation will be required.
Any mediation shall be concluded within forty-five (45) days after such
request, unless extended by the mediator for good cause. In the event
that no settlement is reached within said forty-five (45) day period, all
relevant time periods in the arbitration process shall be extended for
fifteen (15) days plus any extension period.
Should it be determined that a violation occurred and that the fine(s)
was (were) appropriate, fine(s) may be imposed retroactively to the
date set forth in the original notice of violation as set forth in
Paragraph 1.

virtue of Article VI of the Covenant for Maintenance and Capital
Improvement Assessments as prescribed in the Woodlake
Condominium Master Deed; and
WHEREAS, the Board of Directors is empowered and obligated to take
certain actions to collect said Assessments from those unit owners
who have failed to make timely payment of those Assessments by
virtue of 6.09 and 6.10 of the By-laws; therefore
BE IT RESOLVED that the following Collection Procedure is hereby
adopted by the Board of Directors of The Woodlake at Kings Grant
Condominium Association, Inc. at its meeting on September 15, 2009,
and shall be added as Policy #16 of the Association’s Rules and
regulations.
1. Monthly Common Expense Assessments are due on the first of
each month. If payment of those assessments is received after the
15th of the month in which they are due, it will be considered late and
a late fee in the amount of $35.00 will be assessed against the unit.
2. On the last day of each month, if the payment for that month
has not been received, the manager is to send a letter to the unit
owner reminding him/her of the overdue payment and, should the
account remain unpaid at the end of the second month, the manager
shall notify the Association’s counsel, who will immediately send a “30-
day demand letter” to the unit owner in default of payment. At that
time the amount due for the remainder of that year will be accelerated
and become due immediately from the unit owner in default. Any legal
fee incurred by the Association in pursuing collection of any overdue
payments from a unit owner will be the unit owner’s responsibility.
3. If the overdue amount is not received within 30 days of the
“Demand Letter”, the attorney will then prepare a lien with the
appropriate information including the accelerated amount due and
costs incurred and forward it to the manager for signature. When it is
returned to the attorney, it will then be filed in the County Clerk’s
office and sent to the delinquent unit owner along with a letter
demanding payment within 10 days. The manager will also attempt to
locate the unit owners mortgage company and notify them of the lien
filing.
4. If the overdue amount has not been paid within the required 10
days referred to in # 3 above, the Board may take both of the
following actions: instruct the attorney to file a complaint in the New

against the defaulting unit owner in the total amount due; instruct the
