Crawford Farms Homeowners Association, Inc.

What Crawford Farms Homeowners Association, Inc.'s governing documents say

Crawford Farms is a standard single-family home HOA in Dallas, TX. These are two amendments to the governing documents — one to the Bylaws (2008) and one to the Declaration (2008). They change specific rules about meetings, board composition, assessments, pet waste, landscaping, annexation, and how the documents can be amended. They are not the full rulebook.

• Board of Directors & Meetings: Quorum for member meetings is 1/10 of votes; if not met, a second meeting can be held within 60 days with a quorum of 1/2 of the original quorum. The board expanded to 5 members at the Conversion Date; number may be changed but not below 3. Directors serve 2-year alternating terms (3 elected one year, 2 the next). They must be homeowners, current on assessments, and not in violation of HOA rules.
• Annual Assessments: As of the 2008 amendment, the annual assessment for a Class A Member lot was $396. The board can increase it up to 10% per year, but no more than once per calendar year without member approval. A special exception: Duplex Lots owned by Pulte are capped at $30/month.
• Pet Rules: Pet owners must immediately pick up animal waste during walks or anytime the animal is off their property. Failure may result in fines.
• Landscaping Requirements: All landscaping must use live plants. A landscape plan must be approved by the ACC unless it substantially conforms to a builder's standard plan. Minimum: fully sodded front yard and street-side side yard; two 3-inch caliper trees (at least one in front yard) for 60'/70'/75' lots; one such tree for 55' and duplex lots. Landscaping must be in place within 30 days of occupancy.
• Annexation of Property: After the Conversion Date, the board may propose annexing additional property. Requires written approval by owners of at least 2/3 of votes of a quorum of members.
• Amendment Procedures: Before the Conversion Date, the Declarant can amend alone or with 75% of Class A votes plus Declarant's approval. After the Conversion Date, a majority vote of a quorum is sufficient, unless law or other documents require more.
• What these documents don't cover: These are amendments only; they do not contain the full HOA rules. Many routine topics (rental restrictions, parking, pool rules, etc.) are not addressed here. For a complete picture, you need the original Bylaws and Declaration.
