Silver Springs Master Association
“AND WHEREAS, it was intended by the original developer of the Subdivision and was provided certain of the initial master planning documents that a master homeowners association would be formed for the purpose of representing all property owners within the Subdivision with respect to maintenance, improvement and administration of Subdivision common areas;….with the intent and purpose of establishing a harmonious relationship between the parties…” –Dev-HOA Agreement 1989
The Silver Springs Master Homeowners Association primary function is stewardship over a number of parcels and waterways within the 1180 acres of our community boundaries that are owned in common with all the Master Association’s residential unit owners-members. But we are unknowingly committed without our knowledge or consent to other liabilities and to much more. See Community Association Facts for more information.

“There is much satisfaction and added value when living within a Homeowners Association - There is also much dissatisfaction and contested value.”
See “Surviving your HOA” by Willowdean Vance
OR…”The New Web Book: The HOA Primer: Homeowner Associations, a plague that is threatening to destroy American Dream of homeownership” by Dorian MacDougall
List of books written and published about Homeowners Associations
“Rules and property values go hand-in-hand. Developed and enforced to maintain community aesthetics and protect property values, community association rules are often the source of friction between associations and individual residents. Though the rules appear to provide authority to keep neighbors in check, few realize how much that applies to them personally. Although some residents would prefer to see fewer restrictions, 33% believe community association rules “protect and enhance” property values. Community association living isn’t perfect, and for some it’s just not a good fit.”

Buyer’s Guide to Living in a Community Association
January 02, 2002
By George K. Staropoli
Most of the time, and in most homeowner associations, the homeowner can enjoy the benefits of the governing documents that protects property values, but when something goes wrong it really can go wrong. And it’s the homeowner who lacks protection.This booklet presents those factors that are not advertised by the developer, nor by the real estate agent, nor of which you are warned by the government. Actual examples are presented revealing how far an HOA board can go and the extent of the lack of protection available to a homeowner.
An Inconvenient Perspective
I have attended enough MA board meetings to know they do have serious issues that require attention and resolution. I have studied the SSMA since March 2008 and have discovered the following problems —- Slack regard for the Bylaws by the officers, questionable line of authority, no SSMA annual Membership meetings, method used to transfer the lakes from Mountain Regional to the SSMA and under what conditions, thousands of dollars in collected dues from Members that are not disclosed on the printed budget, twenty years without an audit of the financial records, unauthorized expenditures, association representatives on the MA board that have not been duly elected by their respective associations (the 2010 MA Pres. is merely a volunteer that was neither elected nor selected as a trustee nominee), board meeting attendees that have been entrenched in the MHOA board for years and control agendas and outcomes, board officers elected without a quorum, fickle adherence to rules, motions made and carried by attendees rather than trustees, suppression of Member attendee’s input, etc. The SSMA needs to formally organize the SSMA and to allow the General Association Members their right to vote on capital improvements, amendments, rules, etc.
