A Homeowners’ Association (also known as an HOA) is a legal entity created to manage and maintain the common areas of a community. The common areas consist of open areas, alleyways, sidewalks, and some landscaping areas. It is also the function of the HOA to enforce and ensure that the community’s rules and regulations (also known as the Bylaws) are adhered to by residents. The guiding principles of these regulations are to help maintain property values and the quality of life within the community.
Yes, every homeowner is required to join the HOA. Membership in the Miramar Landing Homeowners’ Association is automatic when purchasing inside the community. Dues are a very modest $40 per month per household. These dues fund the maintenance and betterment of our community via landscaping, snow removal, legal fees, etc.
The Bylaws are the guidelines for the operation of the Association. They define the duties of the Association, the terms of the Directors, the membership’s voting rights, as well as other specific items that are necessary to run the Association as a business. The Bylaws also contain guidance for Homeowners regarding acceptable and required behavior regarding home ownership and maintenance, particularly those aspects of ownership concerning the exterior of one’s property.

The Miramar Landing Architectural Review Committee (ARC) reviews and approves new building and exterior remodeling (such as satellite dishes, storm door installations, decks, fences and patios) of homes in Miramar Landing to ensure compliance with our community’s standards. Anyone desiring to undertake such a project, for example a fence, must submit a written request to the ARC for approval before any work begins. Following this procedure will ensure consistent and fair ARC enforcement, protect the interest of all Miramar Landing residents and possibly save the individual homeowner a lot of time, money, and aggravation.
