In 2021, the Texas Senate passed Bill 1588, which placed restrictions on HOA authority over fencing. This legislation ensures that if you own a property, your HOA cannot categorically deny you the right to a fence installation.
All communities differ, and larger HOAs may have bigger boards while smaller ones have fewer members. On average, an HOA's board is comprised of three to five members.
Eligibility. In general, Texas law does not contain any specific requirements for someone to be eligible to serve on the Board of Directors. A director doesn't even have to be a member of the organization. However, many property owners' associations create their own eligibility requirements in the governing documents.
(D) Quorum. Twenty-five percent of the members represented by person or by proxy shall constitute a quorum at a meeting of the members. If less than 25% of the members are represented at a meeting, a majority of the outstanding members so represented may adjourn the meeting from time to time without further notice.
Disclosure Requirements Disclosure is mandated by law, often through public records and real property records. Before purchasing a home, buyers must receive a set of documents detailing the HOA's health, such as its covenants, conditions, restrictions, bylaws, rules, and financial statements.
House Bill 614 guarantees your right to a hearing before the HOA board to contest the violation or the proposed fine. This ensures a fair and transparent process where you can voice your concerns and advocate for your interests.

However, in Texas, the Nonprofit Corporation Act Section 22.204 states that an HOA must have at least three board members. If your HOA's bylaws don't say how many people should be on the board, Texas law covers the number of directors initially listed in the Articles of Incorporation.
Other rules apply to the use of the facilities and the adherence to certain architectural guidelines. Anyone who doesn't comply with these laws may be subject to fines, but the HOA can't evict them. These fines, along with unpaid HOA fees, can lead to the removal of non-compliant homeowners from a community.
