Emily purchases a townhouse in a community governed by POA. The POA's restrictive covenants require that all exterior modifications, including painting the front door, receive prior approval. Without seeking approval, Emily paints her front door a bright red color. The POA wants to enforce the covenant. Which of the following actions is the POA most likely to legally pursue?
Terminate Emily's ownership of the townhouse.
Allow Emily to keep the bright red front door to maintain community harmony.
Seek a court order requiring Emily to repaint her front door to an approved color.
Change the restrictive covenants to permit Emily's choice of color.
The POA is most likely to seek an injunction to compel Emily to comply with the restrictive covenants by repainting her front door to an approved color. This legal remedy is commonly used by associations to enforce covenants without terminating ownership or making unilateral changes to the covenants.
