FN 1. The term "owner" is not defined, but presumably, when used here, "owner" means "lot owner" or "owner of a lot."
FN 2. For instance, an HOA may collect an assessment as a debt of the lot owner by pursuing a money judgment from a court against the lot owner personally for the amounts owed, and if a judgment is obtained, the HOA may attempt to collect on that judgment by wage garnishment, asset seizure and so forth. See Section 57-8a-307. Action to recover unpaid assessment ("An association need not pursue a judicial foreclosure or nonjudicial foreclosure to collect an unpaid assessment but may file an action to recover a money judgment for the unpaid assessment without waiving the lien under Section 57-8a-301.")
