What Bentley Park at Carolina Plantations's governing documents say
This document is a declaration for Bentley Park at Carolina Plantations, a planned community of single-family homes (lots) in Jacksonville, North Carolina. The rules bind the lot owners and are part of a larger master-planned community governed by a master association.
- What you own & maintain: You own your lot and the dwelling unit on it, and are responsible for its upkeep, including landscaping and structures, to a 'Community-Wide Standard' set by the association. The association maintains the common elements (shared land, amenities?) but details of those elements aren't spelled out in this excerpt.
- Architectural review & building standards: Exterior changes—including painting, landscaping, fences, outbuildings—need approval from a review body (Declarant or committees). Homes must be single-family, 'stick built' (no mobile/modular homes), with minimum heated square footage (2,200 sq ft for one-story, 3,000 for two-story), minimum 6/12 roof pitch, and approved exterior materials (brick, stucco, vinyl, etc.). Fences must be behind the house, max 6-8 ft, and not chain link.
- Use restrictions & business: Lots are for single-family residential use only. 'Business and Trade' is broadly defined and seems prohibited (no ongoing commercial activity). No direct access from lots to Carolina Plantations Boulevard.
- Assessments & fees: The association levies annual assessments on all lots (except those owned by Declarant during development and common elements) to fund common expenses. Builders get a 50% discount on assessments for unimproved lots for the first 12 months. Unpaid assessments become a lien on the lot. The budget is set by the board and can be ratified by owners (no quorum needed).
- Master association: This community sits within a larger master-planned development (Carolina Plantations) with a separate master association that can enforce its own rules and collect assessments. The Bentley Park association may also delegate powers to the master association.
- What this document doesn't cover: This document doesn't specify any age restrictions, rental/lease term minimums, specific pet limits, parking rules, or details on amenities (e.g., pools, clubhouse). It's a long declaration of covenants, conditions, and restrictions focused on property rights, architectural control, assessments, and the association structure.
