What Savanna Oaks's governing documents say
Savanna Oaks is a planned single-family home community in Clayton, NC. This declaration creates the homeowners association and sets rules that apply to homeowners, residents, tenants, guests, and invitees.
- Community type & governance: Savanna Oaks is a subdivision of single-family detached homes run by the Savanna Oaks Homeowners Association. The developer (Declarant) retains control until development is complete, after which the Board elected by homeowners takes over.
- Architectural review: No exterior construction, alteration, or landscaping may begin without prior written approval. The developer or an architectural review committee reviews plans based on aesthetic standards, and decisions are subjective. Approvals expire if work isn't completed on time.
- Maintenance duties: Each homeowner must maintain their unit and yard to the 'Community-Wide Standard' — including painting, pressure washing, trash removal, and repairing damage within 6 months. The association maintains common areas (like the entrance sign, storm water systems, and street trees) and carries liability and property insurance for them.
- Assessments & fees: The annual base assessment starts at $360 per year and can be changed by the Board. Special assessments need majority approval; specific assessments can be levied for services or violations. Delinquent payments accrue 10% interest, late charges, and become a lien on the property. Builders are exempt from assessments. A one-time $500 working capital fee is due from the first non-builder owner at closing.
- Rules & enforcement: The Board can create, modify, or repeal use rules (subject to member override by 2/3 of a quorum). Violations can result in fines (which become a lien), suspension of voting or common-area access, suit for damages, or the association performing corrective work at the owner's expense. Rules must treat similar owners equally and cannot ban leasing or transferring units.
- Leasing & rentals: The declaration does not set a minimum lease term, restrict rental numbers, or require Board approval for leases. However, all tenants must comply with the governing documents, and the owner is ultimately responsible for tenant violations.
- Property rights & easements: Each owner has a non-exclusive right to use the common area, which can be suspended for rule violations or nonpayment. The developer retains marketing and development rights (including building on common areas) for up to 40 years. Owners may not use the community name 'Savanna Oaks' in promotional material without permission.
- What this document doesn't cover: This is the main declaration but does not include full details on use restrictions (referenced as Exhibit C), design guidelines, or association bylaws. No pet policies, parking rules, or age restrictions appear in this text.
