What Are The CC&Rs and ByLaws?
CC&Rs are based on state-mandated requirements for community management and operating procedures. CC&Rs are recorded on the development, apply to all property in the CID and, with few exceptions, can only be changed by a prescribed vote of the association members. The association bylaws contain provisions concerning operation of the development and the association. As a general rule, provisions that relate to property rightsXsuch as membership rights relating to property ownershipXare found in the CC&Rs, and provisions concerning an associations internal and operating matters are found in the bylaws. Examples of bylaw items include the procedures for electing the Board of Directors and for defining the duties of the associations officers.
