What Oaks Argyle Homeowners A's governing documents say

This is the Bylaws (governance document) for The Oaks of Argyle Homeowners Association, Inc., a standard single-family HOA in Argyle, TX. The Bylaws govern how the association operates—board elections, member meetings, voting, and finances—but do not contain the actual homeowner rules (like leasing, pets, or architectural standards). Those rules are in the separate Declaration of Covenants, Conditions, Restrictions and Easements, which is not included here.

• Membership & voting: Every lot owner is automatically a member. Each lot gets one vote, except the developer (Declarant) gets 20 votes per lot it owns. A member is not in good standing if they violate any rule or are delinquent on assessments.
• Board of directors: Initially a board of 3 directors selected by the developer. After the development period ends, directors are elected by members via secret ballot for two-year staggered terms. During development, the developer can appoint and remove all directors.
• Meetings & notice: Annual member meeting within 45 days after fiscal year end. Quorum is 20% of total votes (in person or proxy). Board meetings require a majority of directors; notice must be given at least 4 days in advance. Special meetings can be called by the president, a majority of the board, or a petition of 25% of voting members.
• Amendments: The board of directors has the power to alter, amend, or repeal the Bylaws without a member vote.
• Violation hearing procedure: Before fining or suspending rights, the board must: (1) send a written demand to cease, (2) give at least 5 days to abate, (3) if not cured, provide written notice of a hearing via certified mail at least 30 days in advance, (4) hold a hearing in executive session where the violator may present evidence.
• Financial management: The board adopts an annual budget, sets assessments, and may borrow for operations or capital improvements. Borrowing over 25% of budgeted expenses requires member approval. A management agent may be employed but contracts over 3 years are prohibited.
• What this document doesn't cover: This is only the Bylaws. It does not include the actual restrictions on the property (e.g., leasing minimums, pet limits, architectural review, parking, age restrictions). Those are in the Declaration, which is not provided here. This document also does not specify assessment amounts, common facilities, or fee amounts.
