HOAs in Florin subdivisions are governed by the Davis-Stirling Common Interest Development Act (Civil Code §4000 et seq.). HOAs can enforce CC&Rs through fines, lien, and ultimately judicial foreclosure, subject to statutory notice and hearing procedures.
Davis-Stirling requires written notice and opportunity to be heard before fines; fine schedules must be adopted by the board after notice. Liens for unpaid assessments require 30-day pre-lien notice and may be foreclosed if past-due exceed $1,800 or 12+ months. Solar and EV-charger installations have statutory protection (Civil Code §714, §4745). Architectural Review must complete within reasonable time (typically 60 days) and may not unreasonably withhold approval.
Improper HOA enforcement may invalidate liens. Owners may sue for violations under Civil Code §5975 and may recover attorney fees as the prevailing party.
