Pelican Landing Pier

What Pelican Landing Pier's governing documents say

Pelican Landing Pier is a boat-slip membership community in Wrightsville Beach, NC — you own a membership that grants exclusive rights to a specific boat slip, parking spaces, and storage, plus shared use of common dock facilities. The association maintains the docks, piers, and common areas and enforces rules through assessments and a right of first refusal on transfers.

• What you own & maintain: Each membership grants exclusive use of a designated boat slip, parking spaces, and storage cubicle (e.g., Membership A-1 gets Slip A-1, parking spaces 1-2, and storage cubical 1). The corporation maintains all common property including bulkheads, docks, piers, and dock boxes; costs are covered by assessments.
• Assessments & fees: Regular assessments are set by the Board and payable no more frequently than monthly. Special assessments over $1,000 per membership in a fiscal year require majority membership approval. Violation assessments up to $500 per occurrence may be imposed. Delinquent assessments bear 18% annual interest and become a lien on the membership.
• Leasing & rentals (licensing): Members may license (rent) their membership rights only with prior Board approval, which cannot be unreasonably withheld. The Board sets the application procedure. During a license, the licensee has use rights but the member retains voting rights.
• Transfer & right of first refusal: Before selling or transferring a membership, the member must first offer it to the corporation at the same price and terms as a proposed buyer. The corporation has 30 days to approve or exercise its option to purchase. Intrafamily transfers (gift, inheritance) are also subject to this right at fair market value. Any transfer without compliance is voidable by the corporation.
• Architectural review: No building, fence, wall, sign, dock box, or other structure may be erected or altered on corporate property without prior written Board approval. Each boat slip may have one or two dock boxes of a size, design, and location determined by the Board.
• Use restrictions: The Board may adopt rules for use of all property, including boat slips and docks. No obnoxious or offensive activity is allowed, and nothing may become a public or private nuisance under North Carolina law.
• Insurance: The corporation must keep its insurable property insured against fire and other hazards and carry public liability insurance. Members may separately insure their personal property.
• What this document doesn't cover: This declaration does not address age restrictions, pet policies, or rental minimum lease terms. It is a membership-based system rather than a traditional residential HOA or condominium.
