← How Palm Hill Works
Committee appointed by the Board (holds fine hearings)
A panel of residents that holds the hearing before any fine, or any loss of the use of the park's facilities, for a rule violation can take effect.
What it does
- Holds a hearing for each resident who gets a final violation notice with a fine or suspension.
- Hears the resident, who may explain, bring evidence, and answer what the Park Office presents.
- Votes, by majority, to confirm or reject the fine or the suspension.
- Decides only that; it does not write rules, find violations or set fine amounts.
Its role at Palm Hill
Florida law and Palm Hill's Rules and Regulations require this committee (FS 719.303; Rule XVIII). The Board appoints it, but it decides on its own: a fine or suspension it rejects cannot be imposed.
How it can help you
- Got a violation notice? Fix it and tell the Park Office; daily fines stop once the Office inspects.
- A final notice carries a fine of $100 a day, up to $1,000, and gives the hearing date, time and place, at least 14 days ahead. Come and tell your side.
- To report a violation, use the form on the website or at the Park Office. Reports go to the Park Manager.
When it meets
It meets when there are cases waiting for a hearing, not on a fixed schedule. The final notice gives the date, time and place. Three members hear each case; an alternate sits in when one cannot. No minutes or recordings are posted on the Committees page.
