Q. If a resident of a homeowner's association
requests information from the homeowner's association
President, and he fails to turn over the information
under Chapter 617, what is the remedy of the resident
after waiting ten (10) business days for the
homeowner's association to comply with the request?
A. Contact other board members with your request,
especially the secretary. Consult with an attorney
to contact the board or to file suit to compel
production. The statute,617.303, provides for
actual damages or $50.00 per day up to a max. of
10 days. F.S. 617.305 provides for attys. fees to
the winner.
