Kings Lake

What Kings Lake's governing documents say

Kings Lake is a single-family home neighborhood in McKinney, TX, part of the larger Stonebridge Ranch master-planned community. This 'Village Declaration' establishes a sub-association (Kings Lake HOA) that governs the homes, common areas, and private streets within its boundaries. The master association (Stonebridge Ranch) has superior authority over this sub-association, meaning its rules and design guidelines take precedence in case of conflict.

• Master association relationship: The Stonebridge Ranch Master Association's declaration and rules override this Village Declaration where conflicts exist. However, this sub-association can adopt stricter rules than the master association. The Master Association can enforce this declaration's provisions.
• Assessments: Lots are subject to a Base Assessment (annual), Special Assessments (for unexpected expenses), and Specific Assessments (for violations or owner-specific costs). Assessments are a personal obligation of the owner and also a lien on the lot. Nonpayment can lead to suspension of voting rights and use of common properties.
• Architectural review: All improvements (structures, fences, landscaping changes, etc.) require prior approval from the Architectural Review Committee (ARC) or the Master Architectural Review Committee (MARC). The ARC follows Design Guidelines and the Community-Wide Standard.
• Maintenance responsibilities: The Association maintains common properties (e.g., greenbelts, private streets, some fencing in designated common areas). Owners are responsible for their lot, including the structure, landscaping, fences on lot lines, sidewalks, and parkways between lot and street curb. Failure to maintain can lead to association performing the work and charging the owner.
• Use restrictions & rules: The Board can adopt and enforce reasonable rules regarding use of properties (e.g., noise, parking, pets). Owners and residents must comply with all governing documents and master association rules. No specific lease term minimum is mentioned in this excerpt; leases are not prohibited but are subject to any rules the Board adopts.
