Bridlewood Homeowners As

What Bridlewood Homeowners As's governing documents say

Bridlewood is a master-planned homeowners association (HOA) in Double Oak, TX, governed by multiple recorded declarations and policies. These excerpts are amendments (dated 2005–2007) that update specific enforcement policies: the fining policy, assessment collection policy, and design guidelines. They do not contain the full set of community rules, but they outline the procedures for fines, fee collection, and exterior modification approval that apply to all lot owners.

• Assessment collection & late fees: Annual assessments are due January 1. They become delinquent on January 11, incurring a $25/month late fee plus 18% annual interest. The HOA sends a reminder at 11+ days past due, a delinquency notice at 30+ days, and a default letter at 60+ days demanding payment within 10 days before referral to an attorney (costs added to the owner's account).
• Fines (covenant enforcement): Fines start at $50 per violation type for a first offense and double for each subsequent inspection where the violation remains uncured, up to a maximum of $500 (per the 2003 policy) or $1,000 (per the 2006 policy). There is no aggregate limit on fines for separate violations. Fines become a personal obligation of the owner and are collectible as an assessment.
• Violation enforcement process: Before a fine is imposed, the owner receives a courtesy notice (10 days to cure), then a notice of violation (30 days to request a hearing), and finally a final notice if uncured. A hearing before the board or its delegate must be held within 30 days of the owner's request, with a written decision within 10 days. Owners may appeal a delegate's decision to the full board within 10 days of the decision.
• Design review & modifications: Any exterior alteration (structures, colors, fences, landscaping, etc.) requires prior approval from the Architectural Review Committee (ARC). Applications must be signed by the owner and submitted with plans; the ARC meets biweekly and may take up to 30 days to decide. Work cannot start until approved. Appeals of ARC decisions must be made in writing within 30 days.
• What this document doesn't cover: These are amendments only; they do not contain the full Master Declaration, by-laws, or other use restrictions (e.g., pet rules, parking, leasing, age restrictions). Readers must refer to the complete governing documents for the full set of community rules.
