• Markus Brooks

• Steven Pound

How long do Board members serve?

Rule Changes

What has to happen in order to change the rules?

According to Article 12(c) of the CCRs, now that the Declarant has turned over control (as of December 5th, 2024), to change the covenants we need:

1. A written instrument (i.e., a petition).

2. Signed and acknowledged by owners of 60% of the lot owners.

3. After the approval of 60% of the lot owners, the document must be properly recorded with the county

The covenants will automatically extend every 10 years unless changed. The original 20-year term started July 21, 2022, so the first automatic extension would be in 2042.

MEETINGS & GOVERNANCE

How often are member meetings held?

The Association holds an annual meeting of all members. Special meetings can also be called by either the Board or by 20% of the members.

How will I be notified of meetings?

• Annual meetings: 30 days notice

• Special meetings: 10-30 days notice but not more than 45 days
