Saddleback Homeowners Association, Inc.

What Saddleback Homeowners Association, Inc.'s governing documents say

These are the Bylaws (internal governance rules) of the Saddleback Homeowners Association, Inc., which manages Saddleback Ridge Estates in Denton County, Texas. The Bylaws apply to all lot owners, residents, and guests, but they do not contain the community's use restrictions or homeowner obligations—those are in a separate Declaration. This document focuses on how the association is run: meetings, voting, board of directors, officers, and related procedures.

• Who governs the association: The Board of Directors has 3 directors elected by the Members (lot owners) for 2-year terms. The Declarant (developer) initially controls the board through a separate Class B membership with 5 votes per lot, until all lots are sold.
• Membership & voting: Each lot owner is a Member. Class A Members (non-declarant owners) get 1 vote per lot, regardless of co-owners. Class B Member (Declarant) gets 5 votes per lot. A quorum for Member meetings is 2/5 of votes entitled to vote.
• Officers & management: Officers include President, Secretary, and Treasurer, elected by the Board. The President is the chief executive. During Declarant control, two Co-Presidents may be elected, requiring unanimous action.
• Meetings & notices: Annual Member meetings are held each year. Special meetings can be called by the President, Board, or Members holding at least 1/5 of votes. Notice must be given 10-60 days in advance. Board meetings require a quorum of a majority of directors.
• Indemnification & recordkeeping: The Association may indemnify directors and officers for legal expenses under certain conditions. It must keep books and records of ownership and meeting minutes.
• Amendment process: The Board of Directors may amend the Bylaws unless the Declaration or Certificate of Formation provides otherwise.
• What this document doesn't cover: This document is only the Bylaws. It does not include the community's use restrictions, architectural guidelines, pet rules, leasing restrictions, assessment amounts, or maintenance responsibilities. Those are in the separate Declaration of Covenants, Conditions, and Restrictions (CC&Rs).
