LOOMIS TRAIL HOMEOWNERS ASSOCIATION RULES AND REGULATIONS

Revised 11/3/19, Prepared 2/2/13

PURPOSE:

The purpose of the Loomis Trail HOA Rules and Regulations is to aid in maintaining a high standard of living in The Greens at Loomis Trail community. They serve to enhance the quality of life, to maximize enjoyment for all members and to provide the framework in which people can live in harmony. 

These rules are supplemental to the association’s Covenants, Conditions and Restrictions (CC&Rs) and Bylaws and are not designed to replace them but, rather, add to them by  summarizing information, clarifying content and providing an easier way to obtain information.
