Under the Minnesota Common Interest Ownership Act, an association may levy fines only after due process. Minn. Stat. § 515B.3-102(a)(11) lets it, "after notice and an opportunity to be heard," levy reasonable fines for violations. There is no fixed dollar cap — fines must simply be reasonable.
Minn. Stat. § 515B.3-102(a)(11) authorizes an association to "impose interest and late charges for late payment of assessments and, after notice and an opportunity to be heard before the board or a committee appointed by it, levy reasonable fines for violations of the declaration, bylaws, and rules and regulations." The association must give the owner dated written notice stating the amount and reason for the fine, identifying the specific provision violated, warning that unpaid fines are liens that could lead to foreclosure, and describing the owner's right to be heard. The statute caps fines only by the word "reasonable" — there is no set dollar limit. Unpaid fines are enforceable as assessment liens under § 515B.3-116.
Fines must be "reasonable" and preceded by written notice plus an opportunity to be heard before the board or its committee. Unpaid fines become liens enforceable like assessments and can lead to foreclosure. No fixed statutory dollar cap.
