The Homeowners Association of Princeton Meadows

What The Homeowners Association of Princeton Meadows's governing documents say

This is a set of supplemental rules and regulations for the Princeton Meadows Homeowners Association in Allen, TX, a standard single-family HOA. It covers specific topics like flags, solar devices, rain barrels, religious displays, record production, payment plans, transfer fees, and email addresses, and it also includes later policies on architectural review, security measures, and pool enclosures. These documents bind all homeowners in the community.

• Flags: You may display up to two flags on preapproved mounts without prior approval, but they must meet size and placement rules (e.g., no larger than 3'x5', mounts no larger than 72 inches, no lighting except incidental). Flags on a flagpole are limited to two at a time, and the pole must be no taller than 20 feet and set back from the front building line.
• Solar energy devices: Solar devices require prior approval from the Architectural Control Authority (ACA). They must be on your roof or in a fenced yard/patio, and roof-mounted devices must be on the back of the home, not extend beyond the roofline, and match the roof slope and aesthetics. The ACA may allow an alternate location if it increases energy production by more than 10%.
• Rain barrels & rainwater harvesting: Rain barrels and rainwater harvesting systems require prior written approval from the ACA. They cannot be installed on association-owned property or in common areas, and the ACA may impose conditions on placement and shielding.
• Religious displays: You may display religious items on your entry door or door frame without prior approval if they are 25 square inches or smaller. Larger displays require approval from the architectural review body, and all displays must be kept in good repair, not exceed 5'x3'x3', and be limited to three items. Seasonal religious holiday decorations may be displayed for up to 30 days without approval.
• Record production & retention: Owners may request association records by written certified mail, and the association must respond within 10 days. Copying fees apply (e.g., $0.10 per page, $1 per CD, $3 per DVD, plus labor and overhead for large requests). Certain private information is exempt from production.
• Payment plans: Owners who receive a notice of lien or foreclosure may request a payment plan within 30 days, provided they haven't defaulted on a prior plan in the last 24 months. Standard plans are for 3 or 6 months, with monthly payments roughly equal; balloon payments are not allowed. The board may vary terms between 3 and 18 months.
• Transfer fees: In addition to resale certificate fees, the association may charge a transfer fee as set by the board and managing agent. The exact amount is not specified in this document.
• Email addresses: Owners must keep a current email address on file with the association and notify the association in writing when it changes. The association may require owners to sign up for a group email or listserv to receive communications.
