租客搬出去的时候, 放了一个柜子在外面让免费自取, HOA罚款 $500.00

今天收到一个HOA罚款Email, 说是有个家具摆在外面, 违反了HOA policy, 罚款 $500.00. 并且HOA已经把这个罚款送到了一个讨债公司. 

我仔细看后, 发现HOA在5/25号给我发了 First Fine Notice, 但我一直没收到呀, 我去 spam folder 才找到这个 email. 下面是这个邮件的内容. 另外, 我找了所有的邮件, 也没发现HOA在5/25号之前送给我任何邮件让挪去这个家具. 觉得这$500罚得太冤枉了. 还有, 这个邮件里说是一天罚款$25, 我27号去检查房屋和从租客那里拿钥匙的时候, 这个家具已经不在了, 怎么会一下子出来个$500的账单? 请问大家, 有没有办法去申诉让HOA撤回这个罚款呢? 先谢了.

• 先要个详细bill, 搞清状况及不合理部分，再去board每月的会议申诉，找理由要求 -lin13590- ♀ (40 bytes) () 06/14/2023 postreply 06:29:02
