"Governing Documents" means and refers to this Declaration, the Articles of Incorporation, Bylaws, Rules and Regulations, Architectural Review Guidelines and the Resolutions of the Association. In the event of a conflict in the interpretation of the Governing Documents, they shall be applied in the order of priority stated above."

 

Each governing document serves a specific purpose, yet they all work together to create and govern the HOA. By purchasing a home here in Winding Cypress, you created a legally binding contract with the Association. The terms of that “contract” are spelled out in the governing documents.  

​

• The Declaration of Covenants, Conditions and Restrictions outlines the rights for homeowners as well as the association itself.  

• Exhibit B is The Articles of Incorporation. This document sets up the HOA as a not-for-profit corporation. 

• Exhibit C is The Bylaws. Overly simplified, this spells out how the association is governed – the board’s playbook, if you will.
