COVENANTS

 

The Covenants address the issues of:

1. membership and voting rights within the Property Owners Association

2. owner’s rights and duties

3. common property

4. utilities and easements

5. maintenance assessments

6. architectural control

7. protective covenants

8. insurance and liability

9. general terms. 

 

Violation of the covenants is subject to fine and/or legal remedies.  The Covenants can be modified only by a majority vote of the entire current membership.

 

Although several proposals have been made by the Board of Directors for changes to the Master Community Covenants, none has ever received a sufficient number of votes for passage.  Therefore the Covenants for the Master Community remain unchanged from those set forth by the original developer.

 


GUIDELINES 

The Guidelines provide certain minimum standards, provisions and requirements for appropriate and acceptable design for homeowners.  They are followed by the ACC and the Board in evaluating each submittal for approval. 

The POA recognizes that matters of judgment and taste cannot be reduced to a simple list of measurable criteria.  It is possible that a submission may meet all the guidelines and criteria and still not receive approval, if in the judgment of the ACC and/or the Board the overall aesthetic impact is not acceptable. 

The approval of one application for an improvement shall not be construed as creating any obligation on the part of the ACC to approve applications involving similar designs for proposed improvements to different lots. 

 

The ACC and/or the Board have the express authority to waive any requirement set forth in the Guidelines if, in their professional opinion, it deems such waiver to be in the best interest of the property and the deviation requested is compatible with the character of the property. On occasion, an opinion poll of the homeowners is used to determine whether a Guideline should be modified on a community wide basis. 

Some examples of this are the relaxation of fencing guidelines to include certain styles of PVC fence and expansion of the acceptable exterior color schemes (color palette available at the Community Club).

VIOLATIONS

 

Residents are encouraged to bring alleged violations to the attention of the Property Manager.  Any such complaints must be in writing and are always 100% confidential.  The Property Manager then conducts an on-site inspection of the property and, if a violation appears to exist, sends the owner a violation letter on behalf of the BOD. The Property Manager conducts weekly inspections of the community and issues violation letters as needed. 

Please report any site problems to WMBOD@west-meadows.org or lloyd@greenacreproperties.com.   Thank you.
