Welcome to Wellington Homeowners Association, Inc. Each homeowner is involved in the Association in some manner. Involvement for you may only be that you pay your assessments on time and comply with the governing documents of the Association, or you may wish to take a more active role and serve on the board and/or committee(s). The Wellington Homeowners Association is the residential/single family homes and townhomes that are part of a larger association called Wellington Maintenance Association (WMA). The Wellington Maintenance Association was created as a result of a court decision during the sale of the property that encompasses Clays Mill Rd to the west to New Circle Rd to the North, the train tracks to the east and Shillito Park / Lexington Christian School property to the south. This property is sometimes referred to as the “old Reynolds” property. The Wellington Maintenance Association is responsible for the “general” appearance and upkeep of the area that does not include the residential homes and townhomes.
What is a Homeowners Association? A Homeowners Association (HOA) is a non-profit corporation, chartered under the laws of the State of Kentucky. Membership is mandatory; each owner automatically becomes a member of the Association upon acquiring a home or a plot of land in the subdivision. The Association is governed by the Declarations of Covenants, Conditions and Restrictions (CC&R's) and operated according to the By-Laws of the corporation. Every homeowner should read the documents, available in the Files section of your Resident Center. Additionally everyone should make themselves familiar with Lexington's guide to the good neighbor ordinances located here.
Key Responsibilities of the Association
Maintain common areas and retention basins, common services (insurance, etc.), enforcement of deed restrictions, collection of assessments, social and recreational programs, and lowering costs of operations budgets, etc.
