Colorado HOA laws put the Board between a rock and a hard place
I am on a Board for a HOA.
As an example, the HOA has a rule that no trailers are allowed to be parked on the property.
Colo law requires the HOA to send a letter to the homeowner that has the trailer on the property and give them 30 days to remove the trailer.
However, some homeowners have figured out that if they take the trailer off property and bring it back, Colo law requires the HOA starts over with a new letter and a new 30 days to remove the trailer.
Meanwhile, other homeowners are mad because the Board is not enforcing the rules by “allowing” the homeowner to park their trailer on the property.
The Colo law should have been written that once the letter and the 30 days starts, the 30 days does not restart just because the violation was temporarily "fixed".
Thank you for visiting the community engagement tool for the HOA Homeowners’ Rights Task Force.
Pursuant to HB23-1105, this project has now concluded. On behalf of the Department of Regulatory Agencies and the Division of Real Estate, thank you for your interest and participation.
