Giverny Townhomes Homeowners Association

What Giverny Townhomes Homeowners Association's governing documents say

Giverny Townhomes is a 55+ age-restricted townhome community in Fort Worth, TX. This document is a second amendment to the community's Declaration, adding and detailing age and occupancy restrictions. All owners, residents, and tenants must comply. The community is intended to qualify as 'housing for older persons' under the Housing for Older Persons Act (HOPA).

• Age restriction (55+): At least one person 55 years or older must occupy each residence. No one under 18 may occupy a residence. At least 80% of occupied residences must have an age-qualified occupant.
• Occupancy exceptions: The Board may grant exceptions allowing occupancy by persons under 55 (including surviving spouses under 55 after a spouse's death or medical relocation) as long as the 80% threshold is maintained. Exceptions may also be granted for hardship or extraordinary circumstances.
• Guest restrictions for minors: Persons under 18 may visit as guests for no more than 30 consecutive days and no more than 60 total days in any 12-month period. The Board may grant exceptions.
• Supervision of minors: Minor children are not permitted outside a residence without supervision by a person 18 years or older.
• Parking & vehicles: Vehicles must be kept in garages, carports, or designated parking areas. Overnight on-street parking is prohibited unless approved by the Board.
• Sale and lease requirements: Sales contracts and leases must include a required age-restriction notice. Prospective buyers and tenants must submit age verification and be approved before occupancy. The Board may evict non-compliant tenants.
• Age verification & surveys: Owners and occupants must complete age verification surveys upon request (at least every two years). Failure to notify the Board of occupancy changes within 20 days is a default. Acceptable age verification includes driver's license, birth certificate, passport, etc.
• What this document doesn't cover: This amendment only addresses age restrictions, occupancy rules, and related procedures. It does not cover standard HOA topics such as assessments, architectural control, pet policies, maintenance responsibilities, or common area rules, which are presumably in the original Declaration.
