What Waterford Park Homeowners Association, Inc.'s governing documents say

This is the Covenant Enforcement and Fine Policy for the Waterford Place HOA (Waterford Park Estates Phase III Subdivision) in Flower Mound, TX. It applies to all homeowners (owners) in this single-family residential community and establishes how the association handles violations of the governing documents (CC&Rs, rules, etc.). This policy was recorded in 2023 and replaces prior enforcement policies.

• What triggers a violation: Violations include failure to obtain prior architectural approval for changes, failing to abide by governing documents, and specific common violations like unapproved modifications, improper vehicle storage, trash in view, unkempt lawns, holiday decorations left out more than 30 days, and unapproved signs.
• Enforcement process & cure periods: The association sends an initial courtesy notice giving 14 days to cure. If not cured, a formal Notice of Violation is sent by certified mail, allowing another 14 days or a later deadline. Repeat violations of the same rule within 6 months can result in reinstated fines and escalated fines.
• Fine amounts & daily fines: For curable violations, fines are $50 (initial), $100 (second), $200 (third), and $400 (fourth and subsequent), each per day the violation continues after the Notice of Fine date. For uncurable violations or those posing a health/safety threat, fines up to $2,000 per day. Unapproved ACC modifications: $100, $200, $400, then $500. The board can double fines for repeated violations.
• Right to a hearing: Owners may request a hearing within 30 days of the Notice of Violation. The board must hold the hearing within 30 days of the request, with at least 10 days’ notice. Owners receive evidence packets beforehand and may make audio recordings. The board’s decision is given in writing within 10 days.
• Corrective action (self-help) by association: If a violation is not cured within 14 days after the Notice of Violation, the association may fix it using contractors and charge the cost to the owner’s account. The association must send a separate Notice of Corrective Action before acting.
• Lien & legal action: Unpaid fines and costs can result in a lien on the owner’s property. The association may also refer violations to legal counsel for injunctive relief or damages without prior notice under this policy.
• What this document doesn't cover: This policy only addresses enforcement and fines. It does not include full CC&Rs, architectural guidelines, assessment amounts, pet restrictions, rental limits, or age restrictions. Those are in other governing documents referenced but not included here.
