What is an HOA? A Homeowners Association, also known as a Common Interest Development (CID) or a   community association, is a non-profit organization that oversees the upkeep of a neighborhood’s common areas and establishes general rules and standards for the community. Homeowners associations are established with the intent of protecting community assets and establishing a code of conduct for owners and residents, while instituting proper and sound financial management practices.

​

What is the role of the Board of Directors? The board of directors is the governing body of the association, responsible for the ultimate direction of the management of the affairs of the organization. The primary  obligation of a director is to ensure that the community is abiding by the bylaws and other corporate documents of the community along with complying with all relevant federal, state, and local laws.

​

Currently, the Developer holds majority seats on the Board of Directors. Once a sufficient number of lots are sold, the developer will transfer governing rights to a board of directors elected by the homeowners.

​

The process of how a board is elected is dictated by the articles or bylaws of the community, as well as the length of the term of office for the directors. The bylaws determine how the elections for directors take place.

​

What does the Association Management Company do?   A property management company is contracted by a Board of Directors or by the Developer to provide a variety of services including but not limited to       collecting assessments, sub-contractor endeavors, financial advisement and statement/reports preparation and analysis, general maintenance and problem resolution, and advisement on legal and other property related matters. The  management company also performs on-site visits to ensure that the rules of HOA are correctly implemented and followed. They schedule and participate in Board Meetings, help assist homeowners with questions and concerns and are the liaison between the homeowner and the Board. 

The management company simply implements the decisions the board makes. Although some people are under the   impression that the management company makes all the decisions, this is not the case. 

​

What does the HOA maintain?  The Association maintains all front yards and common area landscape; the Clubhouse and Pool; the sign monuments; private roadways (i.e. alleys) and parking areas; the gutters, downspouts, and fencing for the trash can enclosures of the Townhome Residences. For a complete list, please review the CC&R’s Article 7.

Note: The park within the community is a PUBLIC park and maintained by the City of Sacramento.

​

How many units are in the community?  The Cove at Sacramento Community Association is a mix of single family homes and townhomes with a total of 590 lots at build out.
