Crystal Palace Estates Ph II

What Crystal Palace Estates Ph II's governing documents say

Crystal Palace Estates Phase II is a single-family home subdivision in Coyote Flats, TX, governed by a homeowners association (HOA). If you own a lot here, you must follow detailed rules about construction, landscaping, pets, parking, and more, all enforced by the HOA. This declaration applies to homeowners, residents, and anyone occupying a lot.

• Use restrictions: Each lot is for one detached single-family residence only, occupied by a single family (related by blood/marriage or up to three unrelated roommates). No commercial activity, no noxious uses, and no structures like mobile homes or temporary buildings are allowed.
• Architectural review: Any new construction, exterior alteration, fence, landscaping, or structure must be approved in writing by the Architectural Control Committee (ACC) before starting. Plans must show design, materials, colors, and location. The ACC must respond within 30 days of a complete submission, or it's deemed approved.
• Assessments & fees: The annual regular assessment is $400 per lot (subject to change by the board). There's also a $100 transfer fee paid by both buyer and seller at closing. Assessments are due January 1 and become delinquent after 15 days, triggering a 5% late fee and 18% annual interest.
• Vehicles & parking: Boats, trailers, campers, and similar vehicles may not be parked on the street for more than 24 hours. They must be stored in a closed garage or within a fenced, approved enclosure. No vehicles carrying hazardous cargo are allowed.
• Pets: Household pets (dogs, cats) are allowed but not for commercial breeding. Pets must be confined to the owner's property or on a leash, not allowed to roam freely.
• Maintenance & landscaping: Owners must keep their lot, residence, and all structures neat and well-maintained. Landscaping (including grass, shrubs, trees) must be completed within 90 days after the home is 90% complete. Weeds, trash, and unsightly conditions must be controlled; the HOA can step in and charge the owner after 10 days' written notice.
• Fines & enforcement: The HOA can levy fines, suspend rights, and place a lien on the lot for violations or unpaid assessments. Before taking certain actions (fine, suspension, or foreclosure), the HOA must give written notice and an opportunity for a hearing. The board may suspend a proposed sanction if the violation is cured within 15 days.
• Common area: The subdivision includes common areas (not specified in detail) that all owners have an easement to use, subject to HOA rules. The HOA may charge fees for recreational facilities, suspend use rights, or dedicate common areas to public use with member approval.
