FAQ
Formation and Management of HOAs in Michigan The operation of an HOA is overseen by a board of directors who are charged with the duty to manage property, maintain records, and ensure compliance with both the association's bylaws and state regulations.
In Michigan, HOAs have the power to: Collect payments for shared expenses. Upkeep and regulation of common areas. Levy reasonable fines.
Any changes to the Articles of Incorporation or the bylaws must be documented in the county in which the community is located.
Under the newly enacted Homeowners' Energy Policy Act (the “Act”), signed into law by Gov. Gretchen Whitmer on July 8, 2024, HOAs can no longer prohibit unit owners/homeowners from installing a wide range of energy-efficient upgrades.
While you can't refuse to join one, there are plenty of constructive ways to voice your concerns and seek change if you find yourself at odds with a mandatory HOA. Here's what you can do: Review Governing Documents: Start by pulling out the HOA's Covenants, Conditions, and Restrictions (CC&Rs) and other bylaws.
To the extent an HOA's activities implicate any consumer protection statutes, the HOA is subject to the enforcement power of the Michigan Attorney General. Importantly, homeowners' associations are bound by its governing documents (Bylaws, Declaration, Articles of Incorporation).
Often, an HOA has a pre-approved plant palette, a list of plants that homeowners can include in their landscaping. If an owner wishes to get a plant not included in the list, they must secure permission from the HOA. There is no guarantee, of course, that the HOA will approve the request.
Having said that there are various reasons: lack of water, or lack of skill, interest or confidence about gardening. Some people try and then give up because they don't understand plants, soils, or how to use garden tools. Some people are indoors people and are not concerned with gardens, considering them a chore.
Front Yard Vegetable Gardens In most states, homeowners face restrictions on growing vegetables in their front yards. These laws aim to preserve neighborhood aesthetics, preventing gardens that don't align with a specific look. As of 2022, only Florida and Illinois stood out for protecting the practice.
