Amyx Ranch Est Homeowner

What Amyx Ranch Est Homeowner's governing documents say

This is the bylaws of the Amyx Ranch Estates Homeowners Association (HOA), a single-family home community in Ponder, TX. The document governs how the HOA operates—meetings, board elections, voting, and assessments. It applies to all lot owners (automatically members) and supplements the Declaration of Covenants, Conditions, and Restrictions (CC&Rs), which contains additional rules like architectural controls and use restrictions.

• HOA governance & board: The HOA is managed by a 5-member Board of Directors elected annually at the October members' meeting. Directors serve one-year terms and may be removed with or without cause by a vote of a quorum. Board meetings are open to members (who may not participate unless authorized). The board can adopt rules, enforce the Declaration, levy assessments, file liens, and manage common areas.
• Membership & voting: Every lot owner is automatically a member. There are three voting classes: Class A (one vote per lot for owners other than Declarant and builder-owners), Class B (builder-owners who are non-voting until Class A votes equal Class C votes or 10 years), and Class C (Declarant with 4 votes per lot owned, until January 31, 2006, or until Declarant no longer owns 4 lots). Voting may be in person or by proxy (proxy valid up to 11 months).
• Quorum & member action: For actions like amending the Declaration (Sections 10.01/10.03), quorum at the first meeting is 55% of all votes; if not met, a second meeting can be called with a quorum of half that (27.5%). For other actions, quorum is 30% of all votes at the first meeting, and half that (15%) at a second meeting. Alternatively, written consent by more than 60% (for the first type) or more than 30% (for the second type) can take action without a meeting.
• Annual & special assessments: The board sets annual and special assessments sufficient to cover expenses (maintenance, insurance, taxes, utilities, etc.). Assessments are due on the first of the month after being levied, and each lot pays an equal share (1 / total lots). If unpaid within 15 days, interest accrues at 18% per year, plus collection costs and attorney's fees. Unpaid assessments become a lien on the lot, superior to all except property taxes and first mortgage liens, and may be foreclosed non-judicially.
• Meetings & notice: Annual members' meeting is in October. Special meetings can be called by the President, a majority of the Board, or by written request of 25% of members. Notice for member meetings must be given 10-60 days in advance. Board meetings require at least 3 days' notice for special meetings. Members can act without a meeting by unanimous written consent.
• What this document doesn't cover: These bylaws focus on HOA internal governance and assessments. Specific rules about architectural review, pet limits, leasing restrictions, parking, and other use restrictions are likely in the separate Declaration of Covenants, Conditions, and Restrictions, which is not included here. Also, the document is an excerpt (pages 1-18 of 19) and may be incomplete.
