Sweetwater Homeowners Association, Inc.

What Sweetwater Homeowners Association, Inc.'s governing documents say

This is a supplemental filing for the Sweetwater Homeowners Association, a single-family HOA in Richardson, TX. It records several board-approved policies and guidelines, not the full set of community rules. It covers how the HOA handles contracts, religious displays, covenant enforcement hearings, security measures, and swimming pool enclosures.

• Contract bidding rules: The HOA must seek bids for service contracts over $50,000, with special rules for contracts involving board members or their relatives. Contracts can be renewed automatically for up to six years, then must be rebid.
• Religious displays: Owners may display religious items on their property, but displays must be kept in good repair, not exceed 5' x 3' x 3', and are limited to three per property. Displays cannot extend above the lowest point of the front roof line. Seasonal religious holiday decorations are exempt from prior approval, but other displays need architectural approval.
• Covenant enforcement hearings: Before the HOA can fine an owner, the owner has a right to a hearing before the board. The hearing must be held within 30 days of the owner's request, with at least 10 days' notice. The HOA must provide an evidence packet 10 days before the hearing, or the owner gets an automatic 15-day postponement.
• Security measures: Owners may install security cameras, motion detectors, and perimeter fencing, but must get prior written approval from the architectural review body. Fencing cannot be barbed wire, razor wire, chain link, or vinyl, and electrically charged fencing is prohibited. Plans must show dimensions, colors, materials, and location.
• Swimming pool enclosures: Guidelines for pool enclosures require they be child-proof, with specific mesh and plastic requirements, but the excerpt is too garbled to provide full details.
• What this document doesn't cover: This is a supplemental filing, not the full HOA rulebook. It does not cover general community rules like parking, landscaping, or pet restrictions, nor does it state the HOA's assessment amounts or other standard covenants.
