Utah requires HOAs to offer internal dispute resolution; state Ombudsman and courts are final avenues.
Utah Code 57-8a-227 and related sections require HOAs to have internal dispute resolution procedures. The Utah Division of Real Estate's Community Association Ombudsman provides informal guidance but does not adjudicate. Unresolved disputes go to district court. Mediation is often required before litigation under the governing documents. Salt Lake City does not provide HOA dispute mediation.
