    HOA Restricting Gate Code for Late Dues
    Can a Florida HOA cancel my gate code for the community if I am behind on my dues? I realize they can keep me out of the club house and pool area, even the little workout room. But can they cancel my gate code? I still have my garage door opener that will open the gate, but other family members can not enter now. I contacted the HOA and was told that it is a privilege to have access to common areas.

    Thank You

    What "other family members" are we talking about? People who live with you?

    FL Statutes 720.305 Sec. 2(c): Suspension of common-area-use rights shall not impair the right of an owner or tenant of a parcel to have vehicular and pedestrian ingress to and egress from the parcel, including, but not limited to, the right to park.

    Inform your HOA of this section and tell them they must give you gate access.
