November Thanks

The Melrose HOA was able to acquire the majority vote from homeowners for the proposed bylaws to become legal record.  The Melrose HOA will now be in accordance with ORC 5312 .02 and have guidelines as to how the homeowners association is to operate.

SO DO DEED RESTRICTIONS CHANGE?

Even with the Melrose bylaws in place, there are still nine (9) sets of Deed Restrictions on file for Melrose & Inverness at Melrose based upon Section.  The Board of Trustees have reviewed this issue & have been in discussion with Williams & Strohm, LLC. as to every option moving forward.

Any amendment to an existing Deed Restriction would require 75% approval from each said section.  With it taking over four (4) years to get Bylaws approved at majority plus one, the board is hesitant to use this template as a means of solution.

Another option is to cross-reference Deed Restrictions in all nine (9) sections & see which covenants are enforced throughout the subdivision.  Once research is completed the Melrose Trustees will place these uniform Deed Restrictions into a user-friendly document for the Melrose HOA to understand what will be enforceable.

If you have any questions\comments, please contact Jackson Brandel, Melrose HOA President.
