An HOA or Homeowner Association is a legal entity created to manage and maintain the common areas of a community. Typically these “common areas” consist of things like pools, clubhouses, landscaping, parks, streets, and roads. HOAs can consist of single family homes, condominiums, or town homes and are typically set up by the original developer of the community with a set of rules called “Declaration of Covenants, Conditions, and Restrictions” otherwise known as “CC&Rs.” One of the primary functions of the HOA is to enforce and ensure that these “CC&Rs” are adhered to by the individual homeowners. The guiding principals of these regulations are normally to help maintain property values and the quality of life within the community.

“Working” versions of these documents were created by scanning copies of the originals on file in the Madison County Court House, Canton, MS. The filed copies are the only official versions of these documents. Fonts and layouts have been reformated, and page numbers may not correspond with those in the file copies.

The Covenants, Conditions, and Restrictions (CC&Rs) are the governing legal documents that set up the guidelines for the operation of the planned community as a non-profit corporation. The CC&Rs were recorded by the County recorder’s office of the county in which the property is located and are included in the title to your property. Failure on the part of a homeowner to abide by the CC&Rs may result in a fine to the homeowner by the Association. Covenants can be viewed here.

The Bylaws are the guidelines for the operation of the non-profit corporation. The Bylaws define the duties of the various offices of the Board of Directors, the terms of the Directors, the membership’s voting rights, required meetings and notices of meetings, and the principal office of the Association, as well as other specific items that are necessary to run the Association as a business.

The maintenance and management services incurred by the Association are dependent upon timely receipt of assessments due from each homeowner. Late payments will result in a late charge. The CC&Rs allow the Association to assess late charges and to proceed with a lien on your property and even foreclosure proceedings for nonpayment of assessments.

We suggest that in circumstances that require emergency assistance that homeowners use their right to be safe and call the proper authorities in extreme cases. For instance, if a dog is running loose, animal control needs to be contacted, or if you notice a suspicious vehicle in the community, the Madison County Sheriff’s Department needs to be contacted.

If residents cannot resolve a situation between themselves, then turn to your Association’s Board of Directors. Should you have a situation that does not appear to be resolved through neighborly means, please contact us. If the situation is deemed in violation of the Association’s Policies and Guidelines, the Board of Directors will institute an appropriate enforcement action. Your continued assistance may be required. Please note that if the situation does not violate any of the Associations Policies or Indentures, the Association will be unable to take any action against the accused. In this instance, we recommend your contact the Madison County Sheriff’s Department for further assistance.
