New York's Cooperative and Condominium Community
We would love to be able to charge some sort of fine for non-compliance of House Rules. However, we are under the impression that our Prop. Lease does not give us the power to levy fines and that doing so would require shareholder approval. Does anyone know where in the PL the wording for fines can be found? Or if the Board can pass a resolution like BP has done? Thank you.
Thanks, RLM. Can you give a ballpark figure of what your administrative costs are for a House Rule infraction?

Our attorney told us our PL did not give us the power to levy fines, and to do so would require a Shareholder vote.
However, the Board does have the ability to levy administrative costs associated with infractions of House Rules.
