Danielles Crossing Homeowners

What Danielles Crossing Homeowners's governing documents say

Danielle’s Crossing Homeowners Association is a single‑family HOA in Murphy, TX. This document is a supplemental policy manual that spells out the HOA’s rules for fines, assessment collection, board meetings, records inspection, and other governance procedures. It does not contain the full CC&Rs; you should also read the recorded Declaration of Covenants, Conditions, and Restrictions.

• Fines & enforcement: Fines start at $50 for the first notice and increase to $125 by the fourth notice for continuing violations. Before fining, the HOA must send a written violation notice that includes the cure period, fine amount, and right to a hearing within 30 days. The HOA cannot foreclose on a lien that consists solely of fines.
• Assessment collection & late fees: Assessments are due on the date set by the Board; if not received by 5:00 PM on that date, a $25 late fee may be added, plus interest up to 1.5% per month. The HOA may refuse partial payments and can accelerate the entire balance if an owner misses an installment. After a delinquency notice, owners have 45 days to cure before further collection action.
• Board meetings & governance: Board meetings must be noticed to owners: at least 144 hours (6 days) if posted online/emailed, or 10–60 days if mailed. Open meetings are required for matters like fines, foreclosure, enforcement actions, and budget approval. Directors serve staggered 2‑year terms; cumulative voting is not allowed.
• Voting & member meetings: Each lot has one vote. Annual meetings are held; special meetings can be called by the President, Board, or 20% of voting interests. Proxies are allowed but expire after 11 months. Absentee or electronic ballots are treated as present for quorum only for items on the ballot.
• Records inspection: Owners (or their agent/attorney) may request records in writing; the HOA must respond within 10 business days. Certain records (e.g., governing documents) are retained permanently; account records are kept for 5 years; contracts over 1 year are kept for 4 years after expiration.
• What this document doesn't cover: This policy manual does not include the full CC&Rs, architectural review guidelines (Attachment 7 is referenced but not fully included), pool rules, or detailed pet/rental restrictions. Readers should obtain the recorded Declaration and any other attachments for complete rules.
