Mesquite Ridge Homeowners Association

What Mesquite Ridge Homeowners Association's governing documents say

Mesquite Ridge is a condominium community in Denton, Texas, with 94 units in 24 buildings. This declaration establishes the condominium regime, defining unit ownership, common elements, and the rights and obligations of unit owners and the homeowners association. It is the governing rulebook for anyone who owns or lives in a unit here.

• What you own & maintain: You own the interior of your unit (including fixtures and appliances) and an undivided 1.0638% interest in the common elements. The association maintains the common areas and the exterior of all units; you are responsible for maintaining the interior of your unit and repairing broken glass in your windows and doors.
• Leasing & rentals: Units may be leased, but only with a written lease for a term of at least 30 days (no hotel or transient rentals). The lease must require the tenant to follow the declaration and bylaws, and the owner remains responsible for all obligations.
• Pets: Dogs, cats, fish, birds, and other household pets are allowed, but not for commercial purposes or in unreasonable quantities (ordinarily more than two pets per household is considered unreasonable). The association may limit size and weight, and animals must be kept in an enclosure, on a leash, or under control when outside.
• Parking & vehicles: Vehicles must be parked only in designated parking spaces. Inoperable vehicles, large commercial vehicles, and recreational vehicles (like campers, boats, or trailers) are not allowed on the property. Major vehicle repairs are prohibited in common areas.
• Use & occupancy restrictions: Units are for residential use only, with limited exceptions for personal professional activities. No signs, no exterior speakers, no temporary structures, and no storage in common areas without board approval. The board can regulate noise and visual attractiveness.
• Alterations & approvals: You cannot alter common elements or impair structural integrity without prior written board approval. Plans and specifications must be submitted, and the board has 30 days to respond. During the construction period, the declarant has sole approval authority.
• Assessments & fees: The association levies common assessments to cover maintenance, operations, and reserves. Special assessments may be levied for capital improvements or unbudgeted costs with a two-thirds vote of members. Unpaid assessments can become a lien on your unit.
• What this document doesn't cover: This excerpt does not include the full bylaws, specific assessment amounts, or detailed rules for recreational facilities. It also does not cover any age restrictions or affordability requirements.
