Full Breakdown

Midwest City's subdivision ordinance requires every mandatory HOA's governing documents to grant the association authority to collect dues, raise dues, levy special assessments, and place liens on property for nonpayment. Dues must be calculated from a cost projection covering amenity maintenance at full subdivision build-out, cannot rely on developer subsidies that end at HOA turnover, and must be disclosed to lot owners when they purchase. The city must approve any later amendment to these assessment provisions, though day-to-day enforcement of dues and assessments remains solely the HOA's responsibility, not the city's.

Violations & Fines

The city can revoke HOA approval, perform neglected duties itself, and assess costs back to the HOA or property owners pro rata, creating a lien in the city's favor under § 38-50.7.

Frequently Asked Questions

Does Midwest City set my HOA's assessment amount?
No. The city only requires HOA documents to include dues, special-assessment, and lien authority and a build-out cost projection; the actual dollar amount is set by the HOA under its own governing documents.
Can Midwest City enforce my HOA's unpaid assessments?
No, enforcement of dues and assessments is solely the HOA's responsibility under § 38-50.5(a)(6); the city's role is limited to approving document amendments and stepping in only if the HOA neglects city-mandated maintenance duties.
