Governing Documents
The governing documents for the Crofton Park Garden Owners Association include:
An Association is created by filing Articles of Incorporation (“Articles”) for a nonprofit organization with the secretary of state where the community is established. The articles are usually brief and contain only the basic information about the Association, its name, location, and its purpose.
Once established, an Association adopts a set of bylaws. Bylaws are important, they describe how an Association is run, set out voting rights and procedures, and contain rules for such things as how to call a meeting and how often meetings must be held.
The bylaws describe the Association’s rights and responsibilities. For example, the Association is responsible to enforce policies and to collect assessments. The bylaws also establish a procedure for creating the annual budget and determining assessment amounts.
Amended and Restated Bylaws (10-1-2011)
In December of 2013 the original Bylaws for Crofton Park were amended to reduce quorum requirements for membership meetings. A link to this amendment is below:
The CC&Rs (Covenants, Conditions & Restrictions) also known as the Declaration of Covenants are the “big Kahuna” of the governing documents. They contain the most comprehensive and probably the most important information about the community and its operation.
The Declaration of Covenants establishes the general structure of the community and describes what land is subject to the governing documents, as well as what parts of the development are common areas owned by the Association.
The Covenants also contain restrictions on the use of each owner’s property. They specify the Association’s authority and obligations and define the rights and responsibilities of Association members (owners). Every owner must abide by all the restrictions, terms, and conditions found in the Covenants.
