Redmond municipal code
Redmond regulates short-term rentals, accessory dwelling units, and land use through city planning and Deschutes County coordination (verify with Redmond Community Development). Oregon planned community statutes and recorded CC&Rs govern parallel HOA use restrictions.
HOA governing documents
HOAs enforce recorded use restrictions (minimum lease terms, guest limits, parking) when consistent with applicable city licensure and state law. Covenant enforcement requires notice, cure periods, and uniform application.
Zoning & building code
Redmond development code governs fence heights, setbacks, and critical wildfire-urban interface standards in Central Oregon. HOAs may add design guidelines through recorded covenants.
Permit thresholds
Redmond building division and Deschutes County issue permits for regulated construction. Require both city permit proof and HOA ACC approval when CC&Rs mandate architectural review.
HOA architectural control
HOAs review fences and additions through architectural committees under CC&Rs. Municipal compliance alone does not satisfy HOA design or notice requirements.
State / local protections
Oregon law limits unreasonable HOA restrictions on solar energy systems. High-desert water conservation practices may appear in both city drought guidance and HOA landscaping rules.
What HOAs may still regulate
HOAs may adopt reasonable design rules that meet statutory tests (location, color, timeline). Associations cannot impose outright bans where state law voids them.
Southeastern humidity accelerates mold, rot, and paint failure. Set clear maintenance standards for exteriors.
Board checklist
