Fairways North at Westridge

What Fairways North at Westridge's governing documents say

This is the bylaws for Fairways NW at WestRidge Owners Association, a residential sub-association within the WestRidge master-planned community in McKinney, TX. The rules bind all lot owners and set up the association's governance, meetings, enforcement, and owner obligations, but the Declaration (CC&Rs) and master association rules take priority and are not fully included here.

• Community type & structure: Fairways NW is a residential phase in the master-planned WestRidge Community. It has its own owners association, but members are also part of the WestRidge master association, whose regulations override these bylaws.
• Board of directors & elections: The board includes neighborhood delegates (at least two per neighborhood, West and North) plus at-large directors, each elected for 2-year staggered terms. Only owners (or spouse/entity representatives) may serve, and directors can be removed by a 2/3 vote of members at a meeting.
• Meetings & voting: Annual meeting is held each March; special meetings can be called by the board or by owners holding 10% of lots. Quorum for annual meetings is 20% of lots, but only 10% for special; if a quorum fails, a second meeting needs only 5%. Votes can be cast in person or by proxy, and co-owners/corporations have specific voting rules.
• Rules & enforcement: The board can adopt and amend reasonable rules, with at least 10 days' notice to owners. Fines and common-area use suspensions require written notice and a hearing (unless emergency). Fines must be reasonable and can be levied per occurrence or per day for ongoing violations.
• Owner obligations: Owners must notify the association of any sale at least 10 business days before closing, provide proof of ownership (deed copy), and update contact info within 30 days of changes. They must also register mortgagees and maintain a mailing address on file.
• Assessments: The bylaws reference that assessments are levied per unit but do not specify amounts or collection details; those are set in the Declaration. This document only notes that delinquent assessments can lead to fines or other remedies.
• Developer control: The developer (D.R. Horton) retains control of the board during the development period and can appoint/remove directors. The developer also has veto rights over certain amendments.
• What this document doesn't cover: This is only the bylaws, not the full set of rules. It does not include the Declaration's restrictions on leasing, pets, architectural control, or use of common areas—those are in the referenced Declaration and master association rules. The attached budget amendment is a separate clarification and not a day-to-day rule.
