Winchester Park

What Winchester Park's governing documents say

This is a management certificate and enforcement policies for Winchester Park, a single-family home subdivision in Edgecliff Village, Texas. It details how the homeowners association bills and collects assessments, and how it enforces rules through fines and forced maintenance. The document is ancillary to the full Declaration of Covenants, Conditions, and Restrictions (CC&Rs) and does not contain the full set of community rules.

• Assessment billing & due dates: Assessments are due on the first calendar day of the billing period. If unpaid, the account becomes past due and remains so until paid in full.
• Late fees & interest: If an assessment is not paid by the due date, interest may be charged at the rate set in the Declaration, and the association may levy a late fee as provided in the Declaration.
• Collection costs & attorney referral: The owner is responsible for all costs of collecting past due amounts, including administrative fees, title searches, attorney fees, and court costs. After 120 days past due, a final notice is sent via certified mail, giving 30 days to pay before referral to an attorney or foreclosure.
• Payment plans: Owners may request a payment plan for past due amounts. The minimum term is 3 months; the board may approve up to 12 monthly installments without a case-by-case vote. Plans cannot extend more than 18 months, and an owner may only use a plan once per 12 months.
• Violation enforcement & fines: Violations are addressed with escalating fines: $25 after a second notice, $50 after a third, $75 after a fourth, and $75 every 10 days thereafter. Each notice includes a 10-day cure period. The board may skip steps based on severity or history.
• Forced maintenance: If an owner fails to maintain their lot, the association may enter the property after 10 days' written notice and perform the work. The owner is then billed as an additional assessment, though this does not create a lien.
• What this document doesn't cover: This document does not include the full CC&Rs, such as architectural standards, pet restrictions, leasing rules, or age restrictions. For complete community rules, consult the recorded Declaration and Bylaws.
