Section 9 of BSL’s Amended and Restated Bylaws authorizes the Board of Directors to adopt and amend Rules and Regulations governing the Association. Effective July 1, 2024, changes to Florida Statutes 720.305, Section 11.4 Fines and Suspension of Use Rights were implemented. As a result, the BSL Board is amending our Rules and Regulations for Governing Document Enforcement. The amended document will be adopted at the May 13, 2025, BSL Board Meeting. The changes include:
• Format changes to improve readability and process flow, including a quick overview of the basic enforcement requirements and the detailed enforcement process followed by the Association.
• Only one violation letter is sent (previously sent two or more). If the violation is not corrected by the required date, it will be presented at the next Board Meeting for review. If the Board determines a fine is warranted the violation is sent to the Fining Committee for a final determination.
• The Recommended Violation Compliance Timeframe (per type of
violation) has been shortened from 7 to 30 days to 2 to 30 days.
• If a fine is levied, the violator has 30 days at minimum to pay the fine (was 5 days).
A copy of the proposed amended Rules and Regulations for Governing Document Enforcement is available on the BSL Website at: https://www.bslpoa.org/p/Rules–Regulations.
