What governs a Georgia association
Every link goes to the source. Read it yourself before you rely on it. Spring arrives as pollen: heavy pine and oak pollen coats pools, decks, and clubhouses, producing a sharp seasonal spike in cleaning. Hot humid summers push zoysia and Bermuda in after it, and storm limbs across common areas are routine.
Georgia Property Owners’ Association Act, O.C.G.A. § 44-3-220 et seq.

This is a starting point, not legal advice. Statutes are amended, and your declaration and bylaws may impose stricter requirements than the state does. Verify against the current code and your association’s counsel before acting.
