A. Except as expressly authorized in this chapter, in the declaration, or as
otherwise provided by law, no association shall:

   1. Condition or prohibit the rental to a tenant of a lot by a lot owner or
   make an assessment or impose a charge except as provided in &#xA7; 55.1-1805;

   2. Charge a rental fee, application fee, or other processing fee of any kind
   in excess of $50 during the term of any lease;

   3. Charge an annual or monthly rental fee or any other fee not expressly
   authorized in &#xA7; 55.1-1805;

   4. Require the lot owner to use a lease or an addendum to the lease prepared
   by the association;

   5. Charge any deposit from the lot owner or the tenant of the lot owner;

   6. Have the authority to evict a tenant of any lot owner or to require any lot
   owner to execute a power of attorney authorizing the association to evict such

   owner&#8217;s authorized representative under the provisions of &#xA7;

owner to provide the association with the tenant&#8217;s acknowledgment of and
consent to any rules and regulations of the association.

C. The provisions of this section shall not apply to lots owned by the
association.
