Ingram Terrace (Richardson) is a homeowners' association (HOA) community in Murphy, TX, for single-family homes (the document refers to 'Lots' and 'Subdivision'). This document is the Association's Covenant Enforcement Policy and Fining Schedule, which outlines procedures for enforcing the community's restrictions and the fines for violations. It does not contain the full CC&Rs or bylaws; it is an ancillary enforcement policy.

• Enforcement process & hearing rights: Violations are addressed through optional courtesy notice, formal notice of violation, and opportunity for hearing. Owners may request a hearing within 30 days of the notice. Hearings are held within 30 days of request. Exceptions apply for certain uncurable violations, lawsuits, or temporary suspension for safety risks.
• Fines for violations: Fines are set per a schedule. For most curable violations (e.g., leasing non-compliance, maintenance, pets), initial fines up to $500, additional up to $1,000 per month. For architectural violations like failing to construct per approved plans, fines up to $10,000 one-time. Short-term rental violations are listed as curable but with 'N/A' fines. Repeat offenders face doubled fines.
• Leasing & rentals: Leasing violations include short-term rentals (curable, fine N/A), failure to provide lease notice (up to $500 one-time), and lease non-compliance (up to $500 initial, up to $1,000 per month). The document also notes that rental or use of the property may be invalid/unenforceable under federal law.
• Architectural violations: Violations include failure to submit plans (uncurable, up to $500 one-time), failure to construct per approved plans (curable, up to $500 initial then $500 per month, or up to $10,000 one-time), and modification denied or failure to remove unapproved plans (curable, up to $500 initial then $1,000 per month).
• Pet & animal restrictions: Pet and animal violations are separate categories: domestic pets (curable, up to $500 initial then $1,000 per month) and livestock (uncurable, up to $500 one-time).

All other violations (curable: $100 first, $250 second, $500 third+; uncurable: $100 one-time).
• What this document doesn't cover: This is only the enforcement policy and fine schedule.
