Their areas of concern are the Country Club, Grill Room, Tennis Courts, Fitness and Wellness Center, and Golf Course.

      golf course. The Community Association's areas of concern are the Common areas:
      roads, storm sewers, perimeter landscaping, lakes, irrigation, entry area and
      gatehouse, security, and enforcement of the Covenants and Restrictions. Every
      person who is the record owner of a Lot or Unit within the sub-division, is a
      member of the Association for as long as they own the Lot or Unit. The complete
      list of Association duties and responsibilities is contained in the Articles of
      Incorporation.

      The Wildcat Run Community Association is a homeowners association
      incorporated as a not-for-profit pursuant to Chapters 617 and 720 of the Florida
      Statutes. Chapter 720 deals mainly with homeowners associations. The
      Association complies with the Florida Sunshine Laws. All of our meetings are open
      to all members. There are four sets of documents that govern our Community
      Association. They are the Declaration of Covenants and Restrictions, The Articles
      of Incorporation, Bylaws, and the Design Review Committee Guidelines. We
      recommend that all of our residents become familiar with these documents.
