Governing Documents

GOVERNING DOCUMENTS

This section includes documents that govern the Summerfield Civic Association. The By-laws establish the Summerfield Civic Association, the Board of Directors and their responsibilities. The Covenants, Conditions & Restrictions (CC&Rs) are the rules by which we make Summerfield an attractive and pleasant place to live. Please note that there are resolutions and amendments as well.

Additionally, there is a Policy & Procedures manual. Some parts of the manual are not published on this website, as they relate to personnel / employment, of which the administrator and/or board of directors have jurisdiction.

The Architectural Committee and Landscape Committee are Board appointed Committees to provide direction to homeowners to assure consistent application of rules and standards. The Committees share a Board approved manual. If you are considering a change to the exterior of your property, please read the manual, then complete the Change Request form. Please submit two copies of the Change Request form to the Summerfield Civic Association office.
