Amendment of Restrictive Covenants (RC's) to Restrict Rental Properties
Most recent message from the board:
Our HOA can no longer prohibit short term rentals, including rentals like AirBnB's.
The TN Supreme Court decided on October 17th that an HOA with restrictive covenants similar to ours (only residential use, no business use) CANNOT prohibit either short term or long term rentals (including rentals like AirBnB’s). The Court ruled that restrictive covenants must specifically prohibit rental properties rather than rely on only “residential use, no business use”.
Our legal counsel reviewed the decision and recommended our proposed rental amendment be slightly changed to fully address the Court’s decision. Counsel also indicated the changes, although minor, require starting the approval process over.
After the decision, the Board stopped its out-reach efforts to homeowners who had not voted. At the time, 54% of homeowners had voted to approve, 19% had voted to not approve, and 27% (152 homeowners) had not voted.
With over 50% of homeowners in favor of restricting rental properties, the Board will revise the amendment and start a new amendment vote next year. We have learned from the criticisms during the current voting process and will try to do a better job reintroducing this amendment and answering your questions.
We appreciate your understanding. We did not expect this ruling, and it is clear that rental properties are an important matter in our HOA.

Drainage Committee Update:
Our VPI contractor, PipeCheck, finished their inspection. They introduced themselves to each homeowner whose property was involved in the work. In every instance the homeowners were glad to see them and appreciated what they were doing on behalf of our HOA. Many homeowners confirmed that the inlets/pipes were not functioning properly and were causing problems for them. PipeCheck will now prepare a detailed written report on each run of pipe inspected and provide a formatted DVD of the video taken.
With the work we have done over the last couple of years, we had determined the majority run of pipes to put into this project that had become degraded or even incapacitated for one reason or another, and also those pipes that poses the greatest risk if failure were to occur. The PipeCheck report will reflect this and provide the undisputed evidence needed to determine the best path forward for each pipe. A majority of pipes were so bad that PipeCheck could not run their robotic video camera through the entire pipe. However, they were able to document sufficiently the pipe condition and will allow us to determine next steps.
The Temple Hills development was one of the earliest platted developments in Williamson County outside any municipal boundaries. It's age, coupled with the grossly inadequate codes it was developed under and around a golf course, has led us to where a significant amount of repairs are needed to be done by our HOA and the county. This cannot be ignored any longer. We need to receive the attention from the county to recognize this and for the county to devote the resources to an overall effort in conjunction with what our HOA does. Once we have a final report of recommendations, we will recommend establishing a formal meeting with county representatives.

Architectural Review Committee
This is a great time to tackle those clean-up and fix-up projects. Please remember to reach out to your Architectural Review Committee (ARC) for approval of any exterior projects. The application fee is waived if you submit your application and receive approval before you start the work. You can find out more about the ARC, submitting online ARC applications and the ARC's Project Guidelines by clicking HERE.
Volunteers Needed!
Last but not least, the Board is in need of volunteers to help with various committees, including Grounds Committee and Compliance Committee. If you are interested in helping in either of these areas, use “Contact Us” (at the top of this page) and express your interests!
Thank you for your participation!
