At a Glance

What the proposed amendments do

Nineteen targeted updates to the 1991 Covenants, grouped into six themes that modernize how Wexford governs itself and clarify homeowner protections.

No Foreclosure for Fines

Your home can never be taken over unpaid fines, penalties, or forced-maintenance bills. Only delinquent annual dues can trigger a lien.

5% Cap on Dues Increases

The Board cannot raise annual assessments by more than 5% per year without a majority vote of all lot owners.

Architectural Control Reform

The ACC can no longer deny projects based on subjective taste. Denials must cite specific code violations. Applications auto-approve after 30 days.

Due Process & Fair Fines

Fines are capped at $25 per incident ($500 max). An anonymous Covenant Grand Jury of neighbors — not the Board — validates every fine before it can be collected.

Expanded Property Rights

Pickup trucks, RVs on hardscape, backyard hens (up to 8), fire pits, and satellite dishes are all explicitly protected. Leasing rights are guaranteed.

Ban on Shadow Rules

The Board is permanently prohibited from creating secret guidelines that restrict your property. Every rule must be recorded in the Declaration and voted on.
