The Village @ Summerset HOA

What The Village @ Summerset HOA's governing documents say

This is a legal agreement merging two homeowners associations (The Village at Summerset HOA and Pointe Summerset HOA) into a single planned community in Wilmington, NC. It is not a full set of community rules; it primarily describes the merger terms, governance structure, and amended governing documents for the surviving association.

• What this document covers: This is a merger agreement and plan, along with amended articles of incorporation and bylaws for the surviving association (The Village at Summerset HOA). It does not contain the full declaration of covenants, conditions, and restrictions (CC&Rs) or detailed rules about property use, pets, leasing, or parking.
• Membership & voting: Owners of lots automatically become members with one vote per lot. Voting may be done in person or by proxy. Members delinquent on assessments for more than 30 days lose voting rights. A majority of votes entitled to be cast constitutes a quorum.
• Board of directors: The board has 3 to 7 directors, each serving a 2-year term. Directors must be owners or representatives of owner entities. The board manages the association, adopts budgets, enforces rules, and may suspend use of common elements after a hearing.
• Assessments & budget: The board adopts an annual budget and levies assessments. The budget is ratified unless a majority of all owners rejects it at a meeting. If rejected, the prior budget continues.
• Architectural control: An Architectural Control Committee (ACC) is established by the declaration, with powers set forth in that document. The bylaws do not detail specific architectural standards.
• Meetings & notice: Annual member meetings are held at least once a year. Special meetings may be called by the president, board, or by petition of 10% of voting members. Notice must be given 10 to 60 days in advance.
• Indemnification: The association indemnifies directors, officers, and committee members against liability and legal expenses, except for actions known to be against the association's interests or resulting in improper personal benefit.
• What this document doesn't cover: This document does not include specific rules about leasing, pets, parking, age restrictions, or other typical HOA use restrictions. Those would be found in the separate Declaration of Covenants, Conditions, and Restrictions (not provided here).
