Summerlin

The community association at Summerlin comprises three master associations, Summerlin North, Summerlin South and Summerlin West. Each of the master associations function as individual nonprofit corporations with their own boards of directors, delegates and committees. The membership of each association is comprised of all owners of real property within the individual association.
The associations have been formed for the purpose of owning, operating and maintaining various common areas and community improvements within the associations including neighborhood parks, entry signage and streetscapes. In addition, the associations administer and enforce their governing documents, including the CC & Rs, design criteria, use restrictions and rules and regulations.

The Summerlin Council has been formed as the recreational arm of the master associations. It owns, operates and maintains the regional amenities, including parks and community centers. In addition, it organizes and facilitates community events, sports, camps, classes and clubs and organizations. The Council is funded through the assessments of the master associations on an equal pro-rata share for each property owner in Summerlin. It has its own board of directors, consisting of an equal number of appointees from each master association.

In an effort to foster opportunities for social interaction among residents, The Summerlin Council offers a variety of recreational and leisure activities at each of its three community centers. From classes like aerobic kickboxing and ballroom dancing to music therapy and Italian, the community centers provide something of interest to all. In addition, these facilities serve as meeting locations for a variety of clubs and organizations based in the Summerlin community. Or when planning a meeting or party, residents may use a community center room for a nominal rental fee. So whether your desire is to participate in a continuing education course, host a social function or simply get together with neighbors, the Summerlin Community Centers provide excellent venues for enhanced life in Summerlin.
