Shadow Lakes 1

What Shadow Lakes 1's governing documents say

Shadow Lakes, Phase Five, is a standard single-family home subdivision in Wills Point, TX, governed by a Property Owners Association. This 2011 Declaration of Covenants, Conditions and Restrictions establishes the HOA and applies to all lot owners in Phase Five. The document sets annual assessments, enforcement procedures, and hunting rights on undeveloped lots, but intentionally leaves out use restrictions and architectural controls.

• HOA membership & assessments: Every lot owner is a member with one vote per lot. Annual maintenance charge is a minimum of $350 per lot, due by January 10, and can be increased by up to 10% per year. Special assessments may be levied for capital improvements.
• Enforcement & fines: The HOA may fine owners for violations of the Declaration or Rules. First violation fines range from $50 to $500; subsequent violations $100 to $500. Fines are imposed after notice and hearing. The HOA can also suspend voting rights and exclude owners from common area recreational facilities for up to 60 days.
• Hunting on undeveloped lots: Until the subdivision is fully developed, the developer/owner may allow hunting on undeveloped lots during September 1–August 31, with a limit of two persons at a time using only bow and arrow.
• Duration & amendments: The Declaration runs for 40 years from recording (2011), then auto-renews every 10 years unless 2/3 of owners agree to cancel or change it. Amendments require a vote of at least 66 2/3% of lots.
• What this document doesn't cover: This Declaration intentionally omits use restrictions (Article III) and architectural control (Article IV), so there are no stated limits on rentals, pets, age, or building design in this document. Such rules may exist in other HOA governing documents.
