Waynick Harbour Boat Docking Facility

What Waynick Harbour Boat Docking Facility's governing documents say

This is a declaration for Waynick Harbour Boat Docking Facility, a private pier and boat docking facility in Wrightsville Beach, NC. It governs the rights and obligations of the Waynick Harbour Boatowners Association, whose members are owners of three townhouse lots in the adjacent Waynick Harbour Townhouse Condominium (Class A members) and the original declarant (Class B member). The document creates a system of assigned boat slips, maintenance assessments, and use restrictions for the docking facility.

• Membership & boat slip rights: There are two classes of membership: Class A (three memberships, each appurtenant to a townhouse lot in Waynick Harbour Townhouse Condominium) and Class B (one membership held by the declarant). Each Class A member is assigned one boat slip; the Class B member is assigned slips 1, 5, 6, and 7. Slips may be exchanged among members, but a Class A membership cannot be sold separately from its townhouse lot.
• Assessments & fees: Class A members pay annual assessments for common expenses (maintenance, insurance, taxes, utilities) and may be subject to special assessments for capital improvements, repairs, or replacement of the pier and facilities. The Class B member is not liable for annual assessments but must pay 25% of special assessments for damages exceeding $3,000 (Class A pays 75%). Assessments become a lien on the membership and the associated townhouse unit if unpaid.
• Use restrictions: No portion of the properties, common area, or boat slip may be leased, rented, or used for any commercial purpose without association approval. No obnoxious or offensive activity is allowed, and nothing may become a nuisance to other members.
• Architectural control: No building, fence, wall, sign, dock box, or other structure may be erected or altered on the pier, common area, or other property without prior approval of the association. Members may construct a dock box and sailboat bin at their own expense, subject to approval.
• Insurance: The association must maintain public liability insurance of at least $500,000 per person and $1,500,000 per accident, with inflationary adjustments every three years. The association is the sole authority to settle claims. Members may insure their personal property separately.
• Right of first refusal: The declarant grants Class A members a right of first refusal to purchase the Class B membership if the declarant offers to sell it to anyone other than a trust or family member.
• Duration & amendments: The covenants run for 25 years from recording (1981), automatically renewing for successive 10-year periods unless terminated by unanimous vote. Amendments require a 4/5 majority vote of members and must be recorded.
• What this document doesn't cover: This document does not cover rules for the townhouse condominium itself (e.g., interior maintenance, pet restrictions, or parking) — those are governed by separate documents for Waynick Harbour Townhouse Condominium. It also does not specify the amount of annual assessments or detailed rules for guest use.
