What Planters Walk's governing documents say

Planters Walk is a single-family home HOA in Wilmington, NC. This document is the Declaration of Covenants, Conditions and Restrictions (CC&Rs) that applies to all lot owners, residents, and their guests. It sets rules for property use, architectural control, assessments, and maintenance.

• What you own & maintain: You own your lot and dwelling. The Association maintains common areas (e.g., storm drainage, retention pond, planting easements, roadways not maintained by the state) and has the right to enter lots for maintenance of utility and drainage lines.
• Assessments & fees: Annual assessments started at $150/year (paid quarterly or yearly) and can increase up to 10% per year without a member vote. Special assessments for capital improvements require a 2/3 vote. A working capital fee equal to 3 months' estimated dues ($37.50) is due at closing.
• Architectural review: All exterior changes (including painting, fences, structures) require prior written approval from the Declarant or Architectural Review Committee. Houses must have at least 1,000 sq ft of enclosed dwelling area, be completed within 12 months, and maintain a 5-foot separation from neighboring dwellings.
• Use restrictions: Lots are for single-family residential use only. No noxious activities, temporary structures as residences, recreational vehicles visible from the street, or commercial pet keeping. Pets must be leashed and not left unattended outdoors; dog runs are not permitted.
• Parking & vehicles: Off-street parking for at least 2 cars must be provided. No inoperable vehicles, vehicles without current registration/insurance, or tractor-trailers are allowed. Vehicle repairs must be done in garages and not visible from the street.
• Signs & window coverings: Only 'For Sale' signs up to 4 sq ft are permitted. Window coverings visible from outside must have white or neutral backgrounds. No television satellite dishes or outside antennas without Board approval.
