The mission of the Chaparral Pines Community Association (HOA) is to provide a safe and secure environment, follow sound financial practices, and promote a community that all members can share in with pride
Governing Documents
-
When anyone buys a home in our community you are a part of a homeowners' association (HOA). The rules of the HOA community are described in what's called the Declaration of Covenants, Conditions, and Restrictions (CC&Rs). They describe the requirements and limitations of what owners can do with their property. The goal of the CC&Rs is to protect, preserve, and enhance property values in the community.
-
CC&Rs cover the “what” of the HOA and the Bylaws cover the “how.” Community bylaws establish the structure of day-to-day governance of your homeowner’s association
-
The HOA is a non-profit organization and must file paperwork with the Secretary of State’s Office before a developer sells any property within the HOA. The Articles of Incorporation are typically brief and contain basic information such as an association’s name, location, and purpose.
-
Governing Documents can be wordy and cumbersome; this is a consolidated summary document.

Political Sign Resolution
To: Chaparral Pines Board of Directors
From: Melissa Glinzak, Association Director
Date: June 8, 2021
Subject: Political Sign/Political Flag/Flag Resolution
With all the recent concerns regarding flags in the community (some of them being referred to as political signs) and also political signs being posted in the community, management thought it would be best to have an adopted policy to be followed. The following policy is based off of CC&R’s for Chaparral Pines, the federal and state protections for certain flags, and Town of Payson rules for political signs/political flags.
