What Fyre Lake Association, Inc.'s governing documents say
Fyre Lake is a single-family home HOA in Sherrard, Illinois. It's a lake community with private streets, parks, and recreational amenities. The rules govern lot owners and require membership in the Fyre Lake Association, Inc. The document is the recorded Declaration of Restrictive Covenants that runs with the land.
- Residential use & dwelling type: Lots are for single-family homes only. No mobile homes, campers, or trailers may be used as dwellings. A home must be substantially completed and have a Certificate of Occupancy before occupancy.
- Home size & construction rules: New homes must be at least 1,200 sq ft (single-story) or 1,000 sq ft main floor (two-story). Each house must include a garage of at least 400 sq ft. Plans must be approved by the Environmental Control Committee; construction must be completed within 12 months.
- Setbacks & lot maintenance: Structures must be set back 10 feet from side lines, 30 feet from streets, and 50 feet from the lake's high water mark (or 20 feet from the rear line for non-lake lots). Owners must keep lots free of unsightly growth and debris, and lakefront owners must install erosion control within one year.
- Pets & animals: Only usual household pets are allowed. Pets must be leashed or confined, and owners must clean up after them immediately.
- Vehicles & parking: No parking that creates a safety hazard. Commercial vehicles over 2 tons may not be parked overnight if visible from other lots or streets. No junked or partially wrecked vehicles may be parked on a lot.
- Signs: No signs are allowed except one real estate sign on a lot or residence for sale.
- Lake & shoreline rules: Lot ownership extends to the shoreline only; no riparian rights are granted. The developer or association has easement rights for lake maintenance and may change water levels (within the platted high water elevation). Docks, piers, and floats require committee approval as a revocable license.
- Fees & assessments: Each lot owner pays an annual assessment (set by the Board) due March 1. Unpaid assessments accrue 6% interest and can become a lien on the lot, enforceable by foreclosure. The association can suspend voting and facility use for nonpayment.
