Brazos Crossing

What Brazos Crossing's governing documents say

Brazos Crossing is a standard single-family home HOA in Burleson, TX — you own your lot and house, and the association maintains shared private roads, a water well, and common areas. All homeowners are automatically members and must pay assessments to cover maintenance, reserves, and amenities like a gated entrance. The rules primarily govern property use, architectural controls, and assessment obligations.

• What you own & maintain: You own your individual tract (lot) and the home on it. The association owns the private road, water well, and other common areas (greenbelts, entry areas, etc.) and is responsible for their maintenance.
• Assessments & fees: All owners pay annual Regular Assessments, initially capped at $200 per year. The Board can increase it up to 25% annually without member vote; larger increases require member approval. Late payments incur interest at the default rate (15% max) plus a $25 returned-check fee. No assessments are due until the developer owns less than 60% of the tracts.
• Private road & water well: The road and water well are private and maintained by the association. Owners have an easement to use the road for ingress/egress. A reserve fund is maintained for major repairs. The association disclaims liability for security from the limited access system.
• Limited access system (gate): A mechanical gate system limits vehicle access but provides no guarantee of security. Owners release the developer and association from claims arising from the system. Each home must connect to the system, and costs are paid through assessments.
• Architectural review: An Architectural Control Committee reviews plans for any improvements on your lot. The document references this committee but does not detail specific standards; you must submit plans for approval before building or altering structures.
• Enforcement & liens: Unpaid assessments become a contractual lien on your property, enforceable by foreclosure (judicial or nonjudicial) or personal lawsuit. The association can also fine violations (called 'Violation Fines') and seek injunctions or damages for rule violations.
• Voting & membership: Each tract gets one vote. To vote, you must be a 'Member in Good Standing' — meaning all assessments paid and no outstanding violations. Meetings require a quorum of 30% (regular) or 40% (special), with progressive reductions if quorum is not met.
