Governing Documents
Leewood is governed by its Covenants, Articles of Incorporation, and applicable state and county law (the Property Owners Act being the most important). Unless otherwise noted in the law, the state law takes precedence over our documents. The order of precedence of our documents is as listed above -- i.e. if there are contradictions, the Covenants rule, then the Articles of Incorporation, etc.
We also have rules and regulations found in our Standards Manual. These are easily changed by a board vote, but affect our life more than some of the other, more arcane, law. The Standards Manual contains the standards by which we maintain our home and common areas. It is a "must read" before you do anything with the exterior of your home, much less dispose of trash and debris.
Both the Leewood Manual and the Standards Manual are completely cross-referenced, so often it is easier to look up information in them here, on the site, rather than in the hard copy version. To find particular references in either manual, use your browser's search function to find all references to a particular term. So, for example, if your browser is Internet Explorer, and you want to find out about fences, you would go to the Standards Manual following the link below, and then click Edit, Find (on this page) and type in fences on the form that pops up.
