Fall Creek Addition Homeowners Association, Inc.

What Fall Creek Addition Homeowners Association, Inc.'s governing documents say

This document is a collection of instruments for the Fall Creek-Allen Homeowners Association, a single-family HOA in Allen, TX. It contains the HOA's collection policy and architectural control guidelines, but it is not the full declaration of covenants — many standard HOA rules (like assessments, pet restrictions, or common area rules) are not covered here.

• Collection policy & liens: The HOA charges late fees for balances over $10 after the 5th of the month, sends formal demand letters, and can file liens and foreclose on properties for unpaid assessments. Demand letter processing costs $35, lien filing $20, and liens are filed within 30 days of the demand letter.
• Architectural approval required: No building, fence, wall, landscaping, pool, or other improvement may be erected or altered without prior written consent from the Architectural Control Authority (ACA), except for improvements by the Declarant or those explicitly allowed in the declaration.
• Exterior materials & colors: Exterior colors must be natural, muted earth tones; garish or unusual colors are prohibited. Metal structures, exposed cinder block, mirrored glass, and clay tile roofing are banned unless approved. Fences must use approved stain colors, and driveways must be salt-finished concrete (no stamping, colored concrete, brick, or pavers without approval).
• Roofs, windows, and doors: Roofs must use durable, fireproof shingles with a 30-year life expectancy, and shingle color must match the original. Windows must be clear or bronze/gray/smoke tint, with no reflective glass or burglar bars. Front doors and shutters must be wood or similar colors, with no steel or wrought iron bars.
• Backyard and recreational structures: Backyard landscaping generally doesn't need approval unless it's a material deviation, threatens property, or poses safety risks. Basketball goals, trampolines, play structures, and patio extensions require ACA review, with placement and height restrictions (e.g., trampolines must be at least 5 feet from property lines and not exceed 12 feet in height).
• Standby generators: Standby generators must be installed by licensed contractors, have proper fuel lines, and meet safety codes. They should not be used as primary power, and fuel tanks must comply with municipal codes.
• What this document doesn't cover: This is a partial set of governing documents. It does not include the full declaration of covenants, so it lacks details on assessments (other than collection), pet rules, leasing restrictions, common area maintenance, or other typical HOA provisions.
