## What do you think? Question:

I live in Iowa in a townhome community with 60 units. We are about to have our annual meeting. We homeowners were informed that if we did not attend the meeting or submit a proxy by March 30th. we would be assigned a fee of $25 which would be added to our monthly dues. Can this be legally enforced?
