What Mountain Shadow Resort West's governing documents say

This document is the Bylaws of the Mountain Shadows Estates West Management Board, governing the shareholders (owners) of residential lots in the Mountain Shadow Resort West community in Phoenix, AZ. It defines the governance structure, including membership, meetings, board composition, and officers, but does not contain typical HOA rules such as fees, pet restrictions, or leasing limits.

• Membership & Voting: Any person or entity holding record title to a residence unit is a shareholder, entitled to one vote per unit.
• Annual & Special Meetings: Annual meetings are held in April with at least 14 days' notice. Special meetings may be called by the president or secretary, or upon request of 50% of shareholders, with at least 7 days' notice. A quorum is 50% of shareholders, including proxies.
• Board of Directors: The board consists of ten directors: nine shareholder-directors elected for three-year terms, plus one appointed by Mountain Shadow Resort, Inc. who votes only on issues directly impacting the Resort. A majority of six directors constitutes a quorum.
• Removal & Vacancies: A director may be removed with or without cause by a 75% vote of shareholders at a special meeting. Directors absent from four consecutive meetings without presidential approval may be removed by a majority board vote. Vacancies are filled by remaining board members for the unexpired term.
• Officers: Officers (President, Vice President, Secretary, Treasurer) are elected annually by the board within 30 days after the shareholders' meeting. Their duties include presiding over meetings, keeping records, and managing finances.
• Amendments: Bylaws may be amended by a majority of shareholders at a duly called meeting, or by a majority of the board at a regular or special meeting, provided at least 10 days' notice of the proposed change is given to each shareholder.
• Owner/Occupant Approval: At least two board members must interview each proposed owner or occupant and submit a written recommendation to the management board. If disapproved, the applicant must obtain written consents from at least 30 lot owners before reapplying.
• What this document doesn't cover: This excerpt is the bylaws only. It does not include restrictions on leases, pets, architectural changes, parking, assessments, or other typical HOA rules, which would be found in the community's declaration or rules and regulations.
