Frequently Asked Questions

The Association is a non-profit incorporated community association-a group of condominium owners and residents bound together by a First Amended and Restated Declaration of Covenants, Conditions and Restrictions for the purpose of owning, operating and maintaining commonly owned property and preserving community standards.

As an owner of property in the Las Brisas Hills Condominiums Association, you automatically become a member of the Association. As such, you are subject to the Articles of Incorporation, Covenants, Conditions and Restrictions, By-Laws and Rules and Regulations of the community.

Membership entitles you to the use of facilities (both pool areas) and all voting privileges in the Association. Membership also subjects you to all the duties, obligations, restrictions and liabilities of an owner and member under the Master Declaration, including payment of dues and assessments.

The homeowner(s) of each condominium unit shall be entitled to cast one (1) vote per unit. Where more than one owner owns and holds a record interest in the unit, e.g. husband and wife, they may cast the one vote as they deem appropriate. There is no fractional or cumulative voting in the Association.

Members began electing their own Class A Directors at the 1987 annual meeting.
