Except as expressly authorized in this chapter, in the condominium instruments, or as otherwise provided by law, no unit owners’ association may impose a charge against one or more but less than all unit owners unless the charge is (i) authorized under § 55.1-1964, (ii) a fee for services provided, or (iii) a fee expressly authorized by § 55.1-2316.

The Common Interest Community Board may assess a monetary penalty for a violation of this section against any (a) unit owners’ association pursuant to § 54.1-2351 or (b) common interest community manager pursuant to § 54.1-2349 and may issue a cease and desist order pursuant to § 54.1-2352.
