If I’m having a dispute with my HOA, wheredo Ifind the guidelines that govern the boards ability to write the CCr’s?

I am in a civil dispute with my neighbor. It has gotten to the point where local law enforcement has informed me that I have the right to request copies of any false complaints pertaining to my residence and file harassment charges with the city. I was told that there may be a possibility that Ican include my HOA and board in those charges due to the fact that they have allowed, and in some ways participated in, his constant harassment to continue for so many years. Iwould also like to know what accountability there is for a HOA and board, in terms of discrimination towards residents?

The best way to start with documentation concerning guidelines concerning re-writing covenants, conditions & restrictions is to get a copy of the recorded document concerning your property, review any HOA bylaws and then any recorded rules on the planned unit development that you live in. I would also seek a copy of all rules concerning the HOA.

This should get you started with the documentation you need with respect to your question. You should also consider consulting with an attorney experienced with planned unit development matters.
