Newport Village at Trinity

What Newport Village at Trinity's governing documents say

Newport Village at Trinity is a standard homeowners association (HOA) for a residential subdivision in Euless, TX. These documents are the Bylaws and Rules that govern the HOA, binding all homeowners. They cover association governance, property standards, and enforcement procedures.

• HOA membership & meetings: Every homeowner is a member. Annual meetings are held; special meetings can be called by the president, a majority of the board, or members holding at least 20% of votes. A quorum is 10 members present (or 25% for elections). Members may vote by proxy.
• Board of directors: The board has 3–5 directors, each serving staggered 2-year terms. Directors serve without compensation. The board may remove a director for missing 3 consecutive meetings, 75% of meetings in a year, being over 60 days delinquent on assessments, or being subject to an enforcement action.
• Assessments & finances: Monthly assessments are $25. The board must prepare annual financial reports (income statement, cash receipts/disbursements, variance report, balance sheet, delinquency report). The board may borrow for common element repairs without member approval; other borrowing requires member approval like a special assessment.
• Property maintenance & nuisances: Homeowners must keep lots free of rubbish and debris. Grass/weeds over 12 inches in front or fence-height in back are nuisances. Fines start after a 10-day notice: $5/day for front grass (up to 30 days, then HOA may mow at owner's expense), $5/day for back. Bulk trash pickup week is an exception.
• Pets & animal noise: Homeowners must immediately clean up pet droppings on common area; $50 fine per instance. Excessive barking, yelping, or howling for more than 30 minutes in an hour is a nuisance. After notice and 2 weeks to correct, a $50/week fine applies.
• Parking & vehicles: Fire lanes (marked by red curbs/signage) are strictly no parking at any time – vehicles may be towed immediately at owner's expense. Junk cars (inoperable, abandoned, or without current registration) get a 45-day notice before towing; owner pays all towing/storage fees. Trash cans left out after Thursday may incur a $25 fine.
• Enforcement & fines: Violations typically start with a certified letter notice. Fines for illegal dumping: $250. For obstructing fire lane painting: special assessment equal to contractor's return fee divided among responsible owners. Other specific fines noted above. The HOA may also report illegal dumping or code violations to the city.
• What this document doesn't cover: These are the Bylaws and adopted Rules, not the full Declaration of Covenants, Conditions, and Restrictions. The Declaration may contain additional restrictions on leasing, architectural controls, and other matters not included here.
