The Community Associations Institute (CAI) may call it whatever they want -- Uniform Common Interest Ownership Act (UCIOA) or Texas Uniform Planned Community Act (TUPCA) -- it's all the same. Under the cover of creating a balanced, uniform, statewide law for the creation and operation of mandatory homeowners' associations they are trying to take away homeowners' constitutional and property rights. These bill proposals are popping up all over the nation, under various names, but they all have only one target: To establish a bigger income for the service providers and to fleece the homeowners who live in these associations.
Specialized attorneys that grow wealthy from these associations sponsor these bills. On the Texas TUPCA website one quote surely stands out: "TUPCA may be the first state statute in the country to devote an entire chapter to protecting the rights of individual homeowners." I think that's about the boldest false statement I have ever heard! When any proposal takes away constitutional and property rights from United States citizens, that creates a dictatorship. It doesn’t protect peoples’ rights, no matter what its proponents claim. This is another one of these “FEEL GOOD” bills that achieves nothing -- no enforcement, no accountability -- but tries to tell legislators that enacting this bill will bring the necessary reform to their constituents!
Is it that bad? What must homeowners do? Is there some platform to join? Get more info? Please write. Also about your experience.
