Understanding HOA

The CMGE By-laws (explaining our structure) and Covenants (rules and guidelines of our neighborhood) are given to each new homeowner. Our expectation is that these are read and followed by all members in our neighborhood.
CMGE has an elected volunteer Board of five neighborhood members to invoice and collect the annual dues, pay all bills, maintain the roads, communicate important neighborhood information, and conduct the annual membership meeting, which is held in June each year. The Board clarifies and communicates the Covenants. Neighbors are encouraged to get to know each other. The Board prefers that our members work out any personal issue between themselves before elevating concerns to the Board level. The Board can, and will, issue fines for infractions of the Covenants.
Our fiscal year is June 1 through May 31. Invoices for your annual HOA fees are sent to you by the beginning of May each year, due by June 1. These fees cover road maintenance, snow plowing, our website costs, insurance, taxes, utilities, miscellaneous administrative costs, and our POA fee, which is over half of the total annual dues. Bluegreen Resorts owns the land our private roads are built on, but CMGE pays for all maintenance of the roads.
Each year CMGE pays the POA a fee for our neighborhood members to use the Bluegreen amenities, such as the pools, fitness center, renting the pavilion, mini golf, tennis courts, and discounts on ski, golf and at Mulligan's restaurant. Members receive a new card each Spring to prove ownership in our HOA. Follow the golf cart path at the western end of Innisbrook Lane for easy walking or cart access to the resort area.
New cards are ordered by the CMGE Treasurer. Contact the current treasurer for your card.
The Architectural Control Committee, ACC, is a sub-committee of the Board and serves to protect the aesthetics and beauty of our community. The ACC must review all new construction, additions, and landscaping. Please contact them with any questions regarding new exterior changes, new building plans, tree removal information, and other landscape changes prior to the beginning of any project.
