What Kentwood Village's governing documents say
Kentwood Village is a single-family residential community in Wilmington, NC, governed by a homeowners' association (HOA). The Master Declaration of Protective Covenants applies to all property owners and residents, establishing rules for maintenance, assessments, architectural review, and land use.
- What you own & maintain: You own your unit (lot and home) and are responsible for its upkeep, including landscaping and structures, consistent with the community-wide standard. The HOA maintains common areas, and may also maintain front yards, wooden fences, wooden driveway inlays, and the brick wall along Sea Spray Drive, but can discontinue such exterior maintenance at any time.
- Assessments & fees: The HOA levies regular assessments (Master Assessments) based on an annual budget, plus possible Special Assessments (up to $100/year without member vote; larger amounts require 67% approval) and Individual Assessments for specific services or violations. A one-time working capital assessment of $200 is due upon unit purchase. Assessments are a lien on the property.
- Architectural review: All exterior changes—including buildings, fences, landscaping, grading, and color changes—require prior written approval from the Architectural Review Committee (ARC). The ARC has 45 days to respond; if no response, approval is deemed given. Approved plans expire if construction doesn't start within 9 months.
- Leasing & rentals: Leases must comply with all covenants and rules; the owner remains liable for damage caused by tenants. No minimum lease term is stated in this document.
- Use restrictions: Units are for single-family residential use only. No business or trade is allowed. Subdivision of units is prohibited except to enlarge an adjoining unit, and no more than one dwelling per unit.
- Developer rights & transition: The developer (Stevens Building Company) retains special rights until the Class B Control Period ends (when it owns 10% or fewer units, or by Jan 1, 2043), including appointing the ARC and board majority, annexing nearby property, and exemption from assessments on unsold units.
- Common area amenities: The HOA manages common areas, but there are no guarantees regarding access to the adjacent SeaSpray Landing amenities (clubhouse, pools, tennis courts). Any such access would require separate fees and is not assured.
