Generally speaking, the purpose of a homeowner's associations is to enforce the community rules. If you've submitted a complaint because a resident is on non-compliance with the rules/regulations, and association has not responded in a way you believe is appropriate, you should consider escalating to the board of directors if they have oversight of the association. However, if you're the resident in violation of the rules and are wondering if there is some statute of limitations on their addressing your violation, my initial response would be "no". If the association has the authority to enforce that residents follow the rules, then it shouldn't matter whether they "catch you" on day one or day 300; you're in violation of the established policies.

What if a HOA only enforces the dues regulation?

If you believe that there are violations of regulations that are not being enforced, you can bring these matters to the attention of the association officially. Send the board a certified letter listing the violations and the sections of the governing documents not being enforced. Request an entry on the next board meeting agenda with three minutes to present your position. Then request that the board vote to enforce the regulations or not enforce them. The board meeting minutes can inform the other owners of the situation.
