An Owner shall have the right to request a meeting with the Board or a representative thereof to dispute the determination of the existence of delinquent assessments upon submission to the President of the Intervale Owner’s Condominium Association, Inc. and the Association office a written explanation of the reasons such Owner does not believe that it has delinquent assessments together with a request for a meeting with the Board or a representative thereof.

The Intervale Owner’s Condominium Association, Inc. is not required to accept partial payments or installment payments toward delinquent assessments without agreement on a payment plan.

If an Owner requests a payment plan, the Board or a designee thereof will meet with the Owner to discuss the Owner’s plan for payment. Payment plans may include any assessments that accrue during the payment plan period but such plans may not impede the association’s ability to record a lien to secure payment of delinquent assessments, interest and costs. Additional late fees will not accrue during the payment plan period if the Owner complies with the terms of the plan, but if the Owner defaults on the plan, the association may commence or resume its efforts to collect the delinquent assessments from the time prior to entering into the payment plan and assess all late charges, interest and fees as if such plan had not been accepted by the association.
