You don't have to support all the changes by signing the petition you are allowing the conversation to happen and forcing the vote. No suggested changes can go into affect unless the community vote by 67% to change it and if it is specific to a unit that unit also has to vote at 67% to enact the change. Finally, if you don't like how the change is suggested put it in the comments and the committee can change what is suggested before the vote.
Here are some of the changes we suggested.
DCCRS
- All units have their fence height set to 72" max. Units 17,18,20, and 21 don't have a height.
- Remove specification for any fence to have masonry for all units
- Remove requirement to finish inside of garage
- Remove specification that a garage door can't face the street in all units
- Remove rules around animal husbandry in all units.
- Remove fire arm discharge restriction all units. County law supersedes this.
- Set masonry requirement on homes to 50 percent in all units.
- Remove Blues green from all documents
By-Law
- All results from litigation shall be broken down in the financial reports by each case whether that be a negative or a positive to the overall funds held by the POA.
- No committee member shall be able to serve on the covenants committee for more than a period of five years in any consecutive 10 year period
- All board meetings will be broadcast/live streamed in such a way that members that are not there can participate
- No one person elected to the board may serve more than two consecutive terms in any board position. Any member of the community may only serve on the board two terms every 7 years.
- Any member who is a candidate or who is on the Board of Directors may not act as a proxy
- Texas Law addressing HOA/POA are adhered to
- Remove Blue green from all of the By-Laws
- Remove voting delegates

The threshold for forcing a formal review by the board has been reached. I am now finalizing a request for a dedicated meeting to present these proposed amendments directly to the committee.

I also don’t think builders should be able to purchase lots to build spec homes with builder grade materials. This is literally making part of our neighborhood look bad and I’m having one built right on top of me. This neighborhood should be custom homes only! It’s ridiculous!
I would like to see bylaws reconsidered to be more friendly toward eco-friendly options regarding landscaping and alternative solar solutions like the SmartFlower solar option that is not unsightly and should be considered.
Enough with baby sitting services. We should be able to control our own property since we pay the taxes, mortgages and beautify with our own money. It feels like we live in apartments with so many regulations that are ludicrous. Enough with helicopter HOA s.
I would also like to discuss the proper usage of reserve funds and how storage parking units are handled. Whoever in architectural chair should have some sort of construction or building experience as a prerequisite to cut down on the unnecessary nonsense. Pool access year round- no life guard. Key card access.
I do not agree with allowing chickens in our neighborhood as they are really a health and noise hazard. Chickens endanger our water table with their fecal matter and your children with the potential of intestinal worms.
I am in complete support of the DCCRs and By-Law Advancement Petition
I am in favor of advancing the discussion on possible changes.

We are 100% AGAINST any of the proposed changes being offered and strongly feel that this is a waste of POA time and money to address any attempt to lower the standards of ownership in Mystic Shores. Our board of directors has a fiduciary responsibility to uphold our restrictions and covenants. We expect compliance and enforcement in all matters concerning our legal documents.
