Virginia's § 55.1-1819 caps charges an HOA may assess for rule violations: no more than $50 for a single offense and up to $10 per day for a continuing offense, with continuing charges limited to 90 days. That makes the effective maximum for one continuing violation $900, after a required hearing.
Section 55.1-1819 limits charges for rule violations to "$50 for a single offense" and "$10 per day for any offense of a continuing nature," and provides that "the total charges for any offense of a continuing nature shall not be assessed for a period exceeding 90 days" — capping a continuing violation at $900. Before charging, the member must receive written notice and a chance to correct, then "an opportunity to be heard and to be represented by counsel"; notice of the hearing must be sent by registered or certified mail at least 14 days in advance, and the result delivered within 7 days. The board may also pursue injunctive relief or actual damages, with court costs and reasonable attorney fees to the prevailing party.
Up to $50 for a single offense and up to $10 per day for a continuing offense, but continuing charges may not run more than 90 days — a $900 effective maximum. Unpaid charges are treated as assessments and may be perfected and enforced as a lien under § 55.1-1833.
