CCLG is a nonprofit organization formed to provide full and material disclosure ofall the factors that can have profound effects on your decision to buy into  an HOA controlled property. We believe that the regulation of planned communities must be under local government statutes to provide for the constitutional protection of homeowner rights.

 Our Mission:

1.              To inform the public (a) of the private government nature of HOAs and their governing bodies, the homeowners association; (b) of the restrictions on homeowners’ civil liberties and; (c) of the lack of effective enforcement of state laws and the governing documents under the “private contract” interpretation of HOAs;

2.              To change existing state and federal statutes to (a) restore democratic principles of government to existing homeowners associations and (b) replace the “private contract” interpretation of CC&Rs with a declaration that HOAs are civil governments subject to the laws of the land;

3.              To seek the declaration and revision of the legal status of planned communities to that of a local governmental entity, after the developer is required to turn over control of the HOA to its members; and

4.              To foster and promote grassroots lobbying efforts consistent with achieving the goals stated in (1) – (3) above .
