We support legislation prohibiting HOAs from using “policies” to bypass the process of residents’ voting on changes in deed restrictions. We urge the Texas Legislature to enact legislation allowing a simple majority of property owners within and subject to a homeowners’ association to dissolve the association. The Texas Legislature should enact legislation to restrict developers from controlling the Homeowners Association more than 5 years and expanding the properties included beyond contiguous property. We call for the reversal of the previously passed Texas state law stating that Homeowner Associations (HOA) board member or a member of their family cannot also serve as an Architectural Control Committee member.
