Corona HOAs enforce CC&Rs through written notices, fines per a published schedule, hearings before the board, and ultimately civil litigation. Davis-Stirling requires due process, written notice of violations, and an opportunity to be heard before fines are imposed.
CC&R enforcement in Corona's HOA communities is governed by the Davis-Stirling Act and the association's own enforcement policy. Common violations include unapproved exterior modifications, parking infractions, trash can storage, holiday decoration limits, and pet rule violations. The enforcement process typically begins with a courtesy notice, followed by a violation notice giving the member an opportunity to cure within a specified period. If the violation continues, the HOA may impose monetary penalties per its published fine schedule, which must be reasonable and reflect the severity of the violation. Before fines are imposed, the member must receive at least 10 days' written notice of a hearing before the board, with the opportunity to present evidence. Civil Code 5855 governs the disciplinary hearing process. Fines may not be assessed without this due process and may not include attorney fees unless authorized by the CC&Rs. Persistent violations may lead to civil suit, with the HOA potentially recovering attorney fees if it prevails. The city does not enforce CC&Rs but may independently cite the same conduct under Corona Municipal Code where applicable.
Specific penalty amounts for this ordinance are not published in a publicly accessible fine schedule. Contact Corona code enforcement directly for current fines, enforcement procedures, and hearing options.
