I do not have a subscription for NexisLexis to do a case study on a thirty-year-old ruling, and the laws changed in 2011. However, you can read the Section 38.001(8) of the Texas Civil Practice and Remedies Code to understand how HOAs can recover their costs. There is a good book on Texas HOA, too, https://www.amazon.com/Texas-Homeowners-Association-Law-2nd/dp/1938223780 .
