FAQ
For instance, HOAs in California are required by law, to allow at least one pet per unit owner ing to California Code, Civil Code §4715. However, this doesn't stop associations from enforcing rules based on criteria such as size, breed, and number.
Yes, any member in the HOA community can report on the Dog and can request the HOA on removal. When that happens, hire an animal law practitioner for advice and your next steps.
Common Examples of Homeowners Association Pet Restrictions. Generally speaking, the HOA has the right to determine the number of pets allowed in their community (or the number of pets allowed in each home) and the type of pets permitted.
Documentation for Service Animals in HOAs You cannot restrict service animals in HOAs, but you can ask homeowners for proof or documentation. Service animals do not require specific documentation to be considered service animals.
HOAs can deny a request if the animal poses a direct threat to the safety or health of others, or if it could significantly damage property. HOAs can request documentation that ``reasonably supports'' the person's disability and need for the animal.
The short answer is yes. Generally speaking, associations do have the power to impose pet rules. Some HOA communities even go as far as to prohibit pets entirely, though not all state laws allow this.
HOAs can consider: Installing pet waste stations throughout the community, especially in common areas where pets are frequently walked. These stations should include a supply of bags and a dedicated trash can for waste disposal.
Finally, is an HOA considered a local government? No—HOAs are not considered a local government entity. While they do hold some administrative functions for a community, such as collecting assessments and enforcing rules, they do not possess the authority granted to real government bodies.
Technically, an HOA can't evict a homeowner.
Thus, with regard to its organizational structure and general management, an association is subject to the authority of the Ohio Secretary of State. To the extent an HOA's activities implicate any consumer protection statutes, the HOA is subject to the enforcement power of the Ohio Attorney General.
