Captains Walk at Saponos Pointe

What Captains Walk at Saponos Pointe's governing documents say

Captains Walk at Saponos Pointe is a single-family home subdivision in Wilmington, NC, governed by a homeowners association (HOA). These covenants apply to lot owners and set rules for construction, architecture, and land use to maintain a uniform, desirable neighborhood.

• Architectural review: All exterior changes, including buildings, fences, grading, and landscaping, require prior written approval from the Architectural Review Committee (ARC). The ARC has sole discretion over aesthetics and can deny plans for any reason. Plans not ruled on within 30 days are deemed approved.
• Construction standards: Only single-family dwellings are allowed. Minimum heated floor area: 1,400 sq ft for one-story, 1,600 sq ft for two-story, 1,800 sq ft for three-story. A two-car garage is required. Construction must be completed within 12 months; landscaping within 6 months of occupancy.
• Residential use & restrictions: Lots are for residential use only; no home occupations or businesses. No temporary structures (trailers, tents) except during construction. No subdivision of lots without developer consent.
• Pets: Only dogs, cats, and typical household pets are allowed. No horses, cattle, swine, or poultry. Pets cannot be kept for commercial purposes.
• Signs: No signs except private name plates (max 2 sq ft) and for-sale/for-rent signs (max 5 sq ft). Real estate sale signs are allowed during construction with ARC approval.
• Assessments & HOA: The HOA (Saponas Pointe Homeowners Association) levies annual and special assessments on all lots. Annual assessments can be increased up to 10% per year by the Board; larger increases or special assessments require a 2/3 vote of members. Unpaid assessments bear 10% interest and become a lien on the property.
• Common areas & amenities: Common areas are retained by the developer for lot owner use and will be deeded to the HOA after all lots are sold. A potential boat facility (pier) may be built but is not obligated; if built, it will be governed separately with boat slips limited to 21-foot boats without toilets.
• What this document doesn't cover: This excerpt does not specify current assessment amounts, pet limits (number), leasing restrictions, or age restrictions. It also does not detail HOA bylaws or rules for the boat facility if built.
