The Wells

What The Wells's governing documents say

This is a standard homeowners association (HOA) in Mesa, AZ — these bylaws govern the association's operations, not the full rules for homeowners. They apply to all lot owners in The Wells community.

• Membership & meetings: Membership is held by each lot owner. The annual meeting is on the second Wednesday of February; special meetings can be called by the president, a majority of directors, or by members holding at least 1/4 of votes. A quorum is 10% of votes, and decisions are by majority of votes present (unless otherwise specified).
• Board of Directors: The board consists of 3 to 7 directors, each elected for a 3-year term (with staggered initial terms). Directors must be members. Vacancies are filled by a majority of remaining directors. Directors serve without compensation unless approved by members.
• Officers: Officers (President, Vice President, Secretary, Treasurer) are elected annually by the board. The President and Vice President must be directors. Officers serve without compensation unless approved by members.
• Assessments: Assessments (annual, special, individual) are levied as described in the Declaration. Unpaid assessments become a lien on the lot. The board can suspend membership rights for non-payment of assessments or for violations of the Declaration or rules (up to 60 days).
• Capital expenditures & loans: Any capital expenditure over $20,000 or loan over $20,000 requires prior approval by at least 67% of homeowners voting in person or by proxy, with at least 30 days written notice.
• Amendments: These bylaws may be repealed, altered, or amended in accordance with the Articles of Incorporation or applicable law. Any matter governed by the Declaration cannot be amended here.
• What this document doesn't cover: This is only the bylaws (governing HOA operations). The full rules for homeowners (e.g., use restrictions, pet limits, parking rules, architectural standards, and assessment amounts) are in the Declaration of Covenants, Conditions & Restrictions (CC&Rs), which is not included here.
