Utah Code § 57-8a-208 lets an HOA fine owners only after a written warning identifying the violation and, for a continuing violation, giving "not less than 48 hours" to cure. The fine must match the governing documents. Owners may request a hearing within 30 days and sue within 180 days. No statutory dollar cap.
Before fining, a Utah board must give written warning describing the violation, citing the rule, and — for a continuing violation — allowing "a time that is not less than 48 hours" to cure (§ 57-8a-208). A fine may then be assessed if the owner repeats the same violation within a year or fails to cure. The fine must be for a violation listed in the governing documents and "in the amount specifically provided for in the association's governing documents," or commensurate with the violation — Utah sets no statutory maximum. An owner may request an informal hearing "within 30 days after" receiving notice of the fine, and if timely requested, "no interest or late fees may accrue" until a final decision issues. The owner may appeal by civil action within 180 days.
No statutory dollar cap. The fine is whatever the governing documents specify for that violation, or an amount commensurate with it, plus interest and late fees the documents allow. Unpaid fines can become part of the association's lien under § 57-8a-301 once the appeal window closes, exposing the owner to collection and foreclosure.
