Yes, Tamaron does allow rental of homes, but there are rules which must be followed.  For Unit 1 rentals, County law controls and requires a minimum rental term of thirty (30) days. Article 8, Sections 124-131. For Units 2-5 rentals, the minimum rental is ninety (90) days. Deed Restriction 9.3.  Be advised that there is within the Tamaron HOA an active debate on whether to add further requirements on short term rentals and what those requirements should be.Revised: Tamaron Debate on Short-Term Rentals: Let’s Start the Conversation #1 Complaint from Tamaron Homeowners: Short-Term Rentals We hear you! Let’s start the conversation! Let’s take our neighborhood back from owners that allow short-term rentals.(STRs). It won’t be quick nor cheap. There will be attorney’s fees. If action is not taken the reasons that made you want to live in Tamaron will be lost. Join us as we start the conversation and begin the fight. Rentals are permitted in Tamaron but only for a minimum of three (3) months. Enforcement of this deed restriction is ongoing, cumbersome and frustrating. Tamaron’s deed restriction violation fines are statutorily limited to $100/day and continuing violations are capped at $1,000 in the aggregate. An owner who rents their home for ten days for $5000 would be subject to a maximum fine of $1,000. For all subsequent short-term leases the owner could and likely will argue that it is a continuous violation and no more fines should be allowed. Whether this argument wins the day will be up to the Courts. Now, what if the owner owns ten homes in Tamaron and leases all of them short term? $1,000 or $10,000 fine? Legal costs will be incurred and the Courts decide. The following draft resolution is offered to gain Board support to start the discussion of amending the Tamaron Bylaws and Deed Restrictions in a way that gives the HOA additional tools to address the STR impact on Tamaron. Thank you for your time and support. Draft Short Term Rental Resolution Whereas Tamaron was created and developed as a community of single-family homes occupied by the owners thereof and Whereas the homeowners are permitted to rent their homes for not less than three months at a time as provided for in Tamaron governing documents DR 9.3; and Whereas in recent years an increasing number of homes are being rented for less than the required three months resulting in an ever increasing burden on the other residents of Tamaron, including, but not limited to, increased traffic, parking on the lawns, loud noises at late hours, blocking sidewalks, garbage, increasing legal expenses and an overall decrease in the quality of life promised in the Deed Restrictions; and Whereas these short-term rentals are mostly absent owners who are unaffected by the negative impact on Tamaron caused by their short-term renters; Whereas the Board seeks additional powers and money to address the STR problem before it grows bigger. Now therefore, the Board does hereby adopt the following : The Board does hereby authorize the amendment of the Bylaws and Deed Restrictions, with the advice of counsel, to provide for the following : 1. There will be three classes of annual dues: mandatory, voluntary and short-term rentals(STRs).The annual dues for mandatory and voluntary members shall be determined by preparing the budget and dividing it by the number of mandatory members and the number of voluntary members who paid the year before If the Board determines that an owner leases property for less than three months in any calendar year, then the STR owner shall pay an STR dues amount of $10,000.00 for each lot leased for less than three months in any calendar year. 2. If the STR dues are not paid timely then a lien may be filed against the STR property. 3. All property in Tamaron must be leased by a written document. All leases for property in Tamaron shall be sent by electronic means to the Board for approval at least 14 business days prior to execution. The Board shall receive an executed copy of all leases. All leases shall provide contact information for both the lessor and lessee, including but not limited to name, address, email and telephone number (cell and landline). 4. If any part of this resolution and its implementation are found to be invalid, then the remaining portions shall be in full force and effect. Adopted by the Board this day of __,202_ Tamaron’s Board is working with the County Code Enforcement personnel. We have requested that they make a short-term rental presentation at the Annual Membership Meeting on November 9th. Stay tuned for more details. You can be proactive in fighting STRs by patrolling STR websites and identifying Tamaron homes and then submitting that information via email to the Board. Or perhaps you know of a a high school or college student in need of volunteer hours, that would be willing to monitor sites. If you know of anyone, please let us know. Thank you for your time and support. For the Board, Steve Horn Unsigned Response Supporting Short-Term Rentals Response to the Tamaron HOA Board Regarding the September 2026 STR Proposal  October 2026  -Dear Board Members,  Thank you for the time and effort invested in serving our community and for initiating a discussion regarding short-term rentals (STRs) in Tamaron as outlined in the September Bugle. Before homeowners are asked to support significant changes to deed restrictions, dues structures, and owner rights, I believe additional information, transparency, and discussion are necessary.   The article presents ST Rs as a growing problem and attributes numerous neighborhood concerns to them. However, the proposal does not provide data that would allow homeowners to fully understand the scope of the issue. Before moving forward, we respectfully request answers to the following questions:   Request for Facts and Data  How many homes in Tamaron are currently operating as short-term rentals?  How many confirmed complaints regarding STR properties were received during 2026?  What specifically were those complaints?  Is there a complaint log available, with homeowner names redacted, so residents can better understand the actual nature and frequency of the concerns being reported?  How many individual homeowners submitted complaints? Are complaints coming from a broad cross-section of the community, or from a small number of residents?  How much has the Association actually spent on legal fees related specifically to STR enforcement?  What evidence supports the claim that the STR issue is increasing or becoming a larger burden on the community? How are they any different than LTR, or owners living in Tamaron?  Does any Board member own a property used as a short-term rental and can speak from experience and knowledge, and if so, witl disclosure and recusal be considered where appropriate?   Questions Regarding the Resolution  The proposed resolution states that Tamaron was developed as a community of "single-family homes occupied by the owners thereof." However, Tamaron has long permitted rentals, and many long-term renters have been valued members of our community. In addition, a wide range of owners don't actually occupy their homes but are seasonal and allow friends and family to stay. Does this language suggest an eventual effort to limit all rental properties, including long-term rentals or anyone that isn't an owner to stay?  Additionally, the proposal cites the three-month rental restriction; however, our understanding is that this provision does not apply equally throughout all sections of Tamaron. If that is correct, why was that distinction not explained in the article?   The article also references a hypothetical owner renting a home for ten days and receiving $5,000 in rental income. This example appears exaggerated and may not reflect actual rental activity within Tamaron. Perhaps on the keys however certainly not in Tamaron. If the Board is aware of properties generating that level of income for a ten-day rental, please provide the data supporting that example.   Alternative Approaches  The article attributes concerns such as:  Traffic  Parking on lawns  Noise complaints  Sidewalk obstruction Garbage issues   However, these issues are not unique to STR properties. They can and do occur with owner-occupied homes, long-term rentals, visiting family members, contractors, and guests.  Rather than creating broad penalties that impact every STR owner, would it be more effective to focus enforcement efforts on specific nuisance behaviors regardless of who occupies the property?  For example:  Noise violations can be reported to law enforcement and addressed under existing county ordinances. (or even a courtesy call to the owner first before law enforcement) Parking violations and Property maintenance violations can be cited regardless of whether the occupant is an owner, long-term renter, or short-term guest.  Addressing the violation rather than the property may be a more effective solution.   Collaboration Rather Than Conflict  The newsletter encourages residents to "take our neighborhood back" and to "begin the fight." While we understand the frustration some residents may feel, we believe this language unnecessarily divides homeowners.  Instead, we would encourage the Board to consider forming a working group that includes:  Board members  Residents concerned about STRs  Tamaron STR owners  Property management representatives  Many STR owners share the Board's goal of preserving property values, reducing nuisances, and maintaining neighborhood standards. In fact, STR owners are often among the first affected when a guest behaves inappropriately because they face property damage, complaints, negative reviews, and financial loss. Many short-term rentals in Tamaron are better maintained than the owner-occupied homes.  Has the Board considered appointing an STR owner to help coordinate communication with property managers and rental owners regarding best practices and community expectations?  The Proposed $10,000 Assessment  The proposal to impose a $10,000 annual fee on any property determined to have rented for less than three months per year is particularly concerning. The article does not explain:  How the $10,000 amount was calculated.  Whether it is tied to actual Association expenses.  Whether any legal analysis supports such a fee.  How a rental property that may only be occupied intermittently could reasonably create $10,000 in annual costs for the Association.   For STR property owners, the costs of ownership already include:  Property taxes  Insurance  Utilities  Lawn maintenance  Pool maintenance  Mortgage expenses  Repairs and upkeep  Many rental properties are not generating extraordinary profits and, in some cases, may only break even or operate at a loss. The newsletter creates the impression that STR owners are generating excessive income without providing supporting data.   Positive Contributions Often Overlooked  The discussion in the Bugle focuses exclusively on perceived negatives associated with STRs. However, there are positive experiences that deserve acknowledgement as well.  Guests frequently:  Respect the neighborhood.  Walk and bike throughout the community.  Support local businesses.  Are friendly with the neighbors and share homemade bread and jam Introduce friends and family to the area.  Become future homebuyers,   In our own experiences, guests have built positive relationships with neighbors, assisted residents in need, and developed such an appreciation for Tamaron that they eventually purchased homes here and became permanent members of the community.  If the Board intends to present information regarding STRs, it should strive to present a balanced picture reflecting both concerns and benefits. Let's open up this discussion at the upcoming meeting and across local community social media forums and let everyone weigh in.   Closing We respectfully ask the Board to provide homeowners with complete and accurate information before seeking support for substantial amendments to our governing documents.  The community deserves:  Actual data rather than assumptions.   Transparency regarding complaints and costs.  Consideration of alternative solutions.  Equal treatment of all property owners.  A collaborative process that includes all stakeholders.  Most importantly, any enforcement efforts should focus on addressing specific nuisance behaviors regardless of whether the occupant is an owner, long-term renter, short-term renter, family member, or guest.  We appreciate the Boards service and look forward to a productive discussion based on facts, transparency, and solutions that benefit the entire Tamaron community.  Respectfully,  Concerned Tamaron Residents and STR Homeowners  CC: Sue Ladwig-President  Donna Perkins-Treasurer  Steve Horn-Director  Editor note: apologies to the writer, the copy was scanned and we did our best to turn it into a Word document. A Few Responses to Unsigned Letter Supporting Short-Term Rentals Glaringly absent from the response is any assertion or claim that the STRs in Tamaron are in compliance with the three-month requirement in the DR or the 30-day requirement of County law. Before any discussion begins on the issues raised in the response the STR should be in compliance with the law.  Not much to ask. (Steve Horn, Board Member)  Seems like a reasonable request… don’t do anything illegal. (Donna Perkins, Treasurer/Board Member).

Yes, if you are a new homeowner in the units listed below. Unit 2 - since Jan 10, 2023 Unit 3, 4 & 5 - since Mar 24, 2022 All homeowners in Unit 1 are subject to the community’s Deed Restrictions, regardless of whether they choose to join the Homeowners Association (HOA). Membership in the HOA is voluntary and can be obtained by paying annual dues. Only HOA members are eligible to vote on important matters such as the annual budget and the election of the Board of Directors. Voluntary memberships are greatly appreciated, as dues directly support the maintenance of key community features—including the perimeter wall, entrances, landscaped islands, the Preserve, and other neighborhood enhancements. These efforts not only beautify our surroundings but also help protect and increase property values. The HOA relies on the support of voluntary members to thrive, as dues from mandatory members alone are not sufficient. We sincerely thank our voluntary members for their commitment to the community.
