Euless, TX HOA Rules: Board Procedures (2026)

Texas Property Code Chapter 209 (TX POA Act) governs HOA board procedures for mandatory property owners associations statewide including in Euless. Key requirements include: (1) annual member meetings with at least 10 days prior written notice stating date, time, and location; (2) open board meetings with advance notice (except executive sessions for personnel, litigation, and contract negotiation); (3) meeting minutes available to owners within 15 business days of approval; (4) records inspection rights under Section 209.005 allowing owners to review association books, records, and financials with 10 days notice; (5) fiduciary duty of directors to act in good faith and in the best interest of the association. Amendments in 2021 (SB 1588) further strengthened owner protections, including prohibiting foreclosure on fines-only debts and requiring certain disclosures. Euless-specific HOAs in master-planned communities like Park Glen, Glade Crossing, and Midway Park must follow both state law and their specific declarations and bylaws. Board elections typically use written ballots with cumulative voting where permitted by declarations. Texas Business Organizations Code Chapters 21 (nonprofit corporations) and 22 also apply to most HOAs. Violations of open meeting rules can be challenged in district court with attorney fee awards available to prevailing owners.
