Encore Homeowners

What Encore Homeowners's governing documents say

This is the Bylaws of Encore Homeowners Association, a Texas non-profit corporation governing the Encore subdivision in Irving, TX. It establishes the governance structure for a standard single-family homeowner association, covering board composition, meetings, voting, and administration. It does not contain the detailed use restrictions (e.g., pets, leases, parking) - those are in the Declaration and separate Rules and Regulations.

• Board of Directors: The Board has five directors, each serving two-year staggered terms. Directors must be lot owners and cannot be delinquent on assessments. The Board manages the association, enforces documents, and may adopt rules.
• Meetings & Voting: Annual meetings are held in October. Special meetings require a petition of 35% of votes or Board resolution. Quorum is a majority of votes. A member in arrears on assessments cannot vote or serve as director. Proxies are allowed.
• Assessments & Obligations: All owners must pay assessments levied by the Association for common expenses. A member is in good standing (and eligible to vote) only if current on assessments. Nonpayment can lead to loss of voting rights and director ineligibility.
• Rules & Regulations: The Board may adopt and amend rules for administration, property use, and occupant welfare. Owners and occupants are bound by such rules. Rules need not be recorded; they are available on request.
• Amendments to Bylaws: Amendments require approval of at least a majority of a quorum of members. Declarant's rights cannot be affected without its written consent. Amendments must be in writing, signed by two officers, and recorded if the bylaws are recorded.
• Records & Inspections: The Association must keep minutes, financial records, membership lists, and copies of documents. Members, prospective buyers, and mortgagees may inspect and copy records during business hours.
• What this document doesn't cover: This is only the corporate bylaws, not the full set of community rules. Specific use restrictions (pets, leasing, parking, architectural controls, age limits) are in the Declaration and separately adopted Rules and Regulations, which are not included here.
