Description
Appellant Candlelight Hills Civic Association, Inc., a subdivision homeowners association, appeals the trial courts declaratory judgment which narrowly construed the subdivisions restrictive covenants. The lower court ruled that the restrictive covenants under which appellant collects a maintenance fund were unambiguous. In this regard, it excluded parol evidence which was offered to prove the intent allegedly expressed in the covenants. The court then found that the language of the restrictive covenants did not permit use of the maintenance fund to acquire real property. It also ruled that the homeowners votes in each subsection within Candlelight Hills could not be pooled with votes from other subsections to determine the percentage of votes necessary to increase or expend the maintenance fund.
