What Ridgeview Villas Homeowners' Association, Inc.'s governing documents say

Ridgeview Villas Homeowners' Association, Inc. is a homeowners' association (HOA) community in Plano, TX. These documents are a set of board-adopted policies and a bylaw amendment, not the full CC&Rs. They cover payment plans, record access, and specific restrictions on exterior items like flags, solar panels, and rainwater collection.

• Payments & collections: The association has a policy for how payments are applied, prioritizing delinquent assessments, fees, and fines. It also offers alternative payment plans to owners who are delinquent, requiring a signed acceptance, an initial payment, and monthly installments.
• Records & documents: Owners can request to inspect or copy association records via certified mail. Copy fees are $0.10 per page for standard paper copies, and other media have set fees. The association also has a document retention schedule, keeping governing documents permanently, financial records for 5 years, and meeting minutes permanently.
• Religious displays: Religious items displayed on doors or door frames must be 25 square inches or less in total size. This policy overrides conflicting HOA rules.
• Solar panels: Owners may install solar energy devices, but they must not extend beyond the roofline, must be in a designated area unless energy production increases by more than 10%, and must have frames in silver, bronze, or black. Prior approval is required.
• Roofing materials: Owners may replace roofing materials with shingles that are more durable or of equal quality and that match the aesthetics of surrounding properties, even if the HOA's other rules conflict.
• Rainwater collection: Rain barrels or rainwater harvesting systems require written approval from the board or architectural committee. Owners must submit plans showing location, size, color, and visibility.
• Flag display: Owners may display flags, but flagpoles cannot exceed 20 feet, only one flagpole per property, flags must be no larger than 3' x 5', and lights cannot constitute a nuisance.
• What this document doesn't cover: This is not the full CC&Rs. It doesn't cover typical HOA rules such as pets, leasing, parking, noise, or architectural review beyond the specific items above. It also doesn't include assessment amounts or most meeting procedures.
