Ohio HOA disputes are resolved through the declaration's internal procedures, mediation if provided, or litigation in the Franklin County Court of Common Pleas. ORC 5312 does not mandate arbitration but many declarations do.
Owners should first submit written complaints to the board and exhaust any internal appeal process. Some declarations require pre-suit mediation through a neutral service. If unresolved, owners may file suit for breach of declaration, breach of fiduciary duty, or injunctive relief. The prevailing party may recover attorney fees if the declaration or ORC provides. Grove City does not offer an ombudsman for HOA disputes; the Ohio Attorney General's Consumer Protection Section accepts complaints but has limited authority over private HOAs.
