What Mallory Creek Homeowners Association, Inc.'s governing documents say

Mallory Creek is a single-family homeowners association (HOA) in Jupiter, Florida. This document is a set of board-adopted rules that establish how the HOA enforces its covenants and fines owners for violations. It does not restate the full Declaration or all community rules; it only covers the formal enforcement process and penalty amounts.

• Fines & penalties: Standard fines range from $25 to $100 per day or per occurrence, depending on the violation (e.g., $25/day for trash can violations on first occurrence; $50 for first occurrence of dirty driveways; $100 per occurrence for parking violations or nuisances). Fines may increase for repeat occurrences.
• Enforcement process: The process includes: (1) a first letter giving the homeowner a set time to cure; (2) a second letter (final notice) mailed at least 14 days before a hearing, informing the owner of the proposed fine and their right to a hearing before an impartial committee; (3) a hearing where the owner can present evidence; and (4) a third letter confirming the committee's decision. If the fine is unpaid, it becomes a lien on the property and may lead to suspension of common-area use.
• Hearing & appeals: A Fine and Suspension Committee of at least three members (who are not board members, officers, employees, or their close relatives) decides whether to uphold or reject a fine. The owner may appeal the committee's decision to the board within 30 days.
• Suspensions: The board may suspend an owner's or occupant's right to use common areas (e.g., pool, clubhouse) for violations, but cannot block vehicular or pedestrian access to the home or the right to park.
• Architectural changes: A separate 2016 resolution amends the architectural guidelines to prohibit adding or extending temporary or permanent patios or porches to the front of any units.
• What this document doesn't cover: This document does not contain the full Declaration, bylaws, or complete list of community rules. It only covers the formal enforcement and fining policy plus one architectural amendment. Other rules (e.g., pet limits, leasing restrictions, parking specifics) are in the governing documents not shown here.
