Violation is recorded by District Staff, signed by the individual offender(s), and held on file by the District. ii. Second Offense: Automatic suspension of all Amenity privileges for up to thirty (30) days from the commencement of the suspension, with the preparation by District Staff of a written report to be signed by the offender(s) and filed with the District. iii. Third Offense: Suspension of all Amenity privileges for up to one (1) year. Such suspension shall run to the next regular meeting of the Board of Supervisors.
