Unstanding the Difference Between Restrictions, Articles of Incorporation, and Bylaws
Those are three separate documents with three separate purposes. Here is their hierarchy and purpose:
1. Restrictions (aka Covenants): What binds homeowners to certain requirements pertaining to their property’s use, design, and upkeep.
2. Articles of Incorporation: A legal entity stating its purpose and structure. These are not covenants and do not apply to the homeowners' property. They only apply to the corporation. In our case, Crestwood Village Community Association Inc., a non-profit corporation.
3. By-Laws: These are rules and regulations that binds the corporation. They give the corporation authority as well as limits its authority. They do not apply to homeowners property, just to the corporation itself. In our case, these By-Laws apply to the corporation which consists of the HOA and its members.
So, unless you are an HOA board member, or attending HOA meetings, the legal documents you likely are interested in are the “Restrictions” that run with your property.
