There are three main documents governing Avion Palms Homeowners’ Association (APHA):

1. Declarations – the legal document that lays out the restrictions, covenants, easements, equitable servitude, charges, assessments, and liens adopted by APHA. The Declarations are recorded in the Public Records of Hardee County, Florida, and are legally binding.  This means that when you purchase a lot at Avion Palms, you automatically become a member of APHA.  For more detailed information download Exhibit A APHA Declarations
2. By-Laws – APHA is governed by a Board of Directors (who are elected by the members annually) and a set of rules called By-Laws. The by-laws govern how the APHA operates and contain the information needed to run the APHA as a business.  For more detailed information, download 2024 By-Laws
3. Rules and Regulations – The Board of Directors adopts rules and regulations to govern the use of units, lots, and common areas. The rules and regulations are designed to contain more detailed information regarding the general restrictions found in the Declarations and By-Laws.  For more detailed information, download Exhibit C Rules & Regulations
