Leisurewoods History

The LPOA was incorporated as a nonprofit corporation in 1979. The subdivision is divided into five sections, each of which has a set of deed restrictions unique to that section, although there are similarities. The most significant difference among the sections is that residents of Section 2 are required to be members of the association. For residents of other sections, membership is voluntary. This difference is solely the result of the deed restrictions imposed by the developer, and changing those restrictions requires formal action by the landowners.

A 1995 effort promoted by the board to unify the deed restrictions failed to attain the necessary number of residents for the proposal to take effect. One result of the differences among the deed restrictions from section to section is that no single architectural control committee exists for the subdivision; rather, each section is required to elect a separate architectural control committee for that section. However, the deed restrictions also provide that any owner in the neighborhood is entitled to enforce the restrictions.
