House RulesJun 12, 2012

Sounds like you need a new managing agent. You can also seek your Legal Adviser. Our house rules deals with common spaces, noise issues, roller bladding in hallways, smoking in common areas, nothing in hallways like carriages, shopping carts. No kids playing in hallways, illegal occupant and the rules can go on and on depending on your building. Also with each complaint from share holder tag on a fine for each rule being broken. The best way is break it down step by step from front to back yard to the whole building. Did I mention consult with your legal adviser. Good Luck

house rules and fines - yonkers Jun 22, 2012

i believe anytime you try and word in a punishment such as fines to house rules, your proprietary lease and by laws has to support it.
i believe i have read a number of times of coop owners having years of fees returned and not paying fees and fighting them+winning, since the the proprietary lease didn't call for them.
