Community Association a legal entity in which the owners enjoy i.- i.-i.- i.- i.- i.- i.- i.- i.- i.- i.- i.-



the PROTECTION, ENHANCEMENT, MAINTENANCE and PRESERVATION
i.- i.- i.- i.- i.- i.-



of their homes and property.
i.- i.- i.- i.-




3 Basic Types of Community Associations
i.- i.-1. Planned Community - i.- i.- i.- i.-i.- i.- i.- i.- i.- i.-



An owner owns his lot/unit and the community owns common areas.
i.- i.- i.- i.- i.- i.- i.- i.- i.- i.-




2. Condominium - Individual owns his living unit and owns an
i.- i.- i.- i.- i.- i.- i.- i.- i.- i.- i.-



undivided interest in the common elements. i.- i.- i.- i.- i.-




3. Cooperative or Stock Cooperative - Individual owns stock or
i.- i.- i.- i.- i.- i.- i.- i.- i.- i.-



membership in the cooperative and owns a proprietary lease or i.- i.- i.- i.- i.- i.- i.- i.- i.- i.-



occupancy agreement for his living unit. i.- i.- i.- i.- i.- i.-




>A proprietary lease or occupancy agreement defines the member or
i.- i.- i.- i.- i.- i.- i.- i.- i.- i.-



stockholder's rights and obligations in relation to the living unit. For i.- i.- i.- i.- i.- i.- i.- i.- i.- i.- i.-



most cooperatives, the community association owns all of the real
i.- i.- i.- i.- i.- i.- i.- i.- i.- i.-



estate as a not-for profit corporation.
i.- i.- i.- i.- i.-




Rule also called a regulation or resolution, is a specific statement
i.-i.- i.- i.- i.- i.- i.- i.- i.- i.- i.- i.- i.-



of required behavior or action, a violation of which carries a penalty.
i.- i.- i.- i.- i.- i.- i.- i.- i.- i.- i.-

,3 Defining Characteristics of a Community Association
i.- i.- 1. i.- i.- i.- i.- i.-i.- i.- i.-



Membership in the community is MANDATORY and automatic for all i.- i.- i.- i.- i.- i.- i.- i.- i.- i.-



owners.
2. Certain association governing documents bind the owners and the
i.- i.- i.- i.- i.- i.- i.- i.- i.- i.-



association to each other through mandated actions. i.- i.- i.- i.- i.- i.-




3. Mandatory lien-based assessments (maintenance fees) are levied on
i.- i.- i.- i.- i.- i.- i.- i.- i.-



each owner in order to operate and maintain the community
i.- i.- i.- i.- i.- i.- i.- i.- i.- i.-



association.


Lien a legal claim by one party (community association) on the
i.-i.- i.- i.- i.- i.- i.- i.- i.- i.- i.- i.- i.-



property of another (delinquent owner) to obtain the payment of a
i.- i.- i.- i.- i.- i.- i.- i.- i.- i.- i.-



debt or the satisfaction of an obligation.
i.- i.- i.- i.- i.- i.- i.-




>Placing a lien on an owner's property protects the community
i.- i.- i.- i.- i.- i.- i.- i.- i.- i.-



association's interest. It encourages payment of the debt. i.- i.- i.- i.- i.- i.- i.-




Purpose of a Community Association to provide for the
i.- i.- i.- i.- i.-i.- i.- i.- i.- i.- i.-



COMMUNITY, BUSINESS, and GOVERNANCE aspects of the association. i.- i.- i.- i.- i.- i.- i.- i.-




>This is achieved by administering, maintaining and enhancing a
i.- i.- i.- i.- i.- i.- i.- i.- i.-



residential real estate development, and through the establishment of
i.- i.- i.- i.- i.- i.- i.- i.- i.-



a system of property rights, binding covenants and restrictions, and
i.- i.- i.- i.- i.- i.- i.- i.- i.- i.-



rules and regulations.
