      The parking violation was issued at the direction of the board of directors based upon the policies and procedures established in the association's governing documents. Any decision to waive the violations is entirely a board decision and the Management Trust does not have the authority to make that decision. The individual has been invited to appeal to the board of directors at any future board meeting but has failed to appear. ********** needs to file an appeal to the board of directors to resolve the issue which we have advised him to do. At this time the path to resolution lies between ********** and the board of directors.

      I am rejecting this response because:

      unclear why management trust insists on evading.  i asked several (more than the one attempted answer) questions, not for a decision but for explanation with actual references cited.  management trust appears to not understand my request.  perhaps another set of eye's on management trust's side might help?

      Sincerely,

      ***************

      We are not evading but have advised ********** to appeal to the board regarding his violation. That is the path forward to resolution. The Management Trust is not able to reverse the violation, only the ***** of ********* has that authority

      Complaint: 17780905

      I am rejecting this response because: is refusal to provide a detailed explanation of the alleged violation and refusal to provide SPECIFIC referenced authority under which the violation is alleged NOT evasive?  How am I expected to appeal if the basis for the alleged violation continues to elude?

      Sincerely,

      ***************

      The violation is listed in ******* under and viewable by the homeowner with ID code *********. The hearing notice that the homeowner failed to show up for is also listed in *******. The violation notice is for having construction material sored in his car port. Homeowner has been advised of this by multiple people from The Trust and the recourse remains to appeal to the board of directors as only they have the ability to remove the violation. The Management Trust does not have the authority to remove the violation

      I am rejecting this response because:

      I was told my attendance at the board meeting was optional.  Management Trust fails to disclose my attached response nor provide repeated requests for supporting documents.  The presumption is that Management Trust does not have documents supporting their claim of violation other than what has already been presented and rejected by reason that further referenced clarification is required.  Management Trust intention is to enforce rules without referenced authority.

      Sincerely,

      ***************
