Applies uniformly
Same rule regardless of tract CC&Rs
HOA's own remedy
Preserved separately, not replaced

Summary

Eastvale's nuisance abatement chapter explicitly does not enforce private HOA CC&Rs and applies uniformly citywide regardless of what any tract's covenants say. A homeowners' association keeps its own separate right to sue for CC&R compliance.

This chapter is not intended to enforce conditions, covenants and restrictions ("CC&Rs") on real property, or to supersede any less restrictive CC&Rs. This chapter will be enforced uniformly within the city regardless of CC&Rs. Therefore, this chapter does not abrogate the right of any homeowners' association or private citizen to take action, legal or as otherwise provided in the CC&Rs, to force compliance with the CC&Rs applicable to their tract or association even though the CC&Rs may be the same, more restrictive, or may not be covered by this chapter.

Full Breakdown

Sec. 010, the findings and purpose section of the Administrative Nuisance Abatement chapter adopted by Ord. No. 2020-01, states directly that the chapter is not intended to enforce conditions, covenants and restrictions on real property or to supersede any CC&R that is less restrictive than the city's own nuisance standards. 18 the same way across every property in Eastvale no matter what a particular tract's CC&Rs require or permit. Because of that, the chapter preserves, rather than replaces, an HOA's or private citizen's separate right to bring a legal or CC&R-based action to force compliance with covenants that apply to their own tract or association, even where those covenants are identical to, stricter than, or not addressed at all by the city's nuisance rules.

18 for a nuisance condition such as unmowed grass, junk storage, or a dilapidated fence faces a city process entirely separate from any parallel HOA architectural or covenant enforcement action; paying a city fine or curing a city notice of abatement does not resolve, and is not resolved by, any HOA dispute over the same condition, and the two proceed independently under their own procedures and remedies.

Violations & Fines

A responsible person who fails to abate a nuisance identified under Chapter 8.18 faces a misdemeanor under Sec. 8.18.040, punishable per Sec. 1.01.220, or an administrative fine issued under Chapter 8.17, with each day of continued violation a separate offense; this exposure is independent of, and unaffected by, any HOA action over the same CC&R condition.

Frequently Asked Questions

Does Eastvale code enforcement enforce my HOA's CC&Rs?
No. Sec. 8.18.010(6) states the nuisance abatement chapter is not intended to enforce CC&Rs and will be applied uniformly citywide regardless of what any tract's covenants say.
If my HOA already fined me, can the city still cite me for the same condition?
Yes. City nuisance enforcement under Chapter 8.18 and an HOA's CC&R enforcement are separate legal tracks; Sec. 8.18.010(6) preserves the HOA's independent right to pursue CC&R compliance regardless of any city action.
Can my HOA's CC&Rs be stricter than the city's nuisance rules?
Yes. The city's chapter does not supersede a less restrictive CC&R, and an association keeps the right to enforce its own, potentially stricter, covenants even where the city's rule covers the same condition differently.
