What Hawkeswater at the River's governing documents say

Hawkeswater At The River is a single-family home subdivision in Bolivia, NC, governed by a homeowners' association (HOA). This document is the full declaration of covenants, conditions, and restrictions (CC&Rs) that apply to all lot owners, residents, and guests. It covers property rights, assessments, use restrictions, architectural control, and stormwater management.

• What you own & maintain: You own your lot and the dwelling on it. The HOA maintains common elements (private roads, greenways, parks, stormwater basins) and may provide lawn care for front/side yards. You must maintain your lot, including landscaping, fences (if any), and keep it free of weeds and debris.
• Architectural review: All exterior changes (structures, fences, painting, roofing, siding) require prior written approval from the Architectural Review Committee (ARC). Plans are deemed approved if not acted on within 30 days. Minimum dwelling size: 1,800 sq ft for single-story, 2,050 sq ft for multi-story (at least 1,400 sq ft on first floor).
• Use restrictions: Lots are for single-family residential use only. No temporary structures, trailers, or tents as residences. No boats, campers, or inoperable vehicles visible on lots or streets. Pets allowed but must be leashed and not a nuisance. No clotheslines. Flags: U.S. and NC flags up to 4'x6' allowed; other flags require ARC approval.
• Leasing & rentals: The document does not restrict leasing or set minimum lease terms. However, all tenants must comply with the declaration, and owners are responsible for their tenants' compliance.
• Assessments & fees: Annual assessments fund common area maintenance, insurance, and operations. Special assessments require 2/3 member vote. A one-time working capital assessment of $200 is due at purchase from developer. Assessments are a lien on the lot if unpaid.
• Parking & vehicles: Off-street parking for at least 2 cars required. No inoperable or unregistered vehicles allowed on lots or streets. Vehicle repairs only in garages, not visible from street.
