Williamsburg Place

What Williamsburg Place's governing documents say

Williamsburg Place is a standard single-family home subdivision in Wilmington, NC, governed by a Homeowners Association (HOA). The rules apply to all owners, tenants, and occupants, and are enforced by the Williamsburg Place Owners Association, Inc.

• Residential use only: Units must be used only for residential purposes. No manufacturing or commercial use is allowed, though a room may be used for a home business without any exterior sign or advertising.
• Pets: No more than four household pets (dogs, cats, or similar) per unit. Pets must be leashed when outside a fenced area, and owners must clean up pet debris. Costs for debris removal may be charged as a special assessment.
• Exterior maintenance & appearance: Owners must maintain their unit's exterior (including roofs, walls, windows, and paint) in good condition. The Association may perform maintenance if an owner fails to do so and charge the cost as a special assessment. White mini-blinds must be installed in all windows within 10 days of occupancy. No exterior antennas, satellite dishes, or clotheslines visible from public view are allowed.
• Landscaping & yard areas: The Association maintains all front, side, and backyard areas that are not fenced. No landscaping other than what the Developer or Association provides is allowed except inside designated 'Owner Maintained Areas' shown on the plat.
• Assessments & fees: The Association levies annual and special assessments on all units. Annual assessments can be increased up to 10% per year by the Board; larger increases require a 2/3 vote of members. Special assessments for capital improvements also require a 2/3 vote. Assessments are due quarterly, and unpaid amounts accrue 18% annual interest and may become a lien on the property.
• Leasing & rentals: The document does not restrict leasing terms or require owner occupancy. However, all tenants must comply with the Declaration.
• Architectural & property modifications: No specific setback lines are established; the Developer (and later the Association) controls site and location of structures. Grading changes require written approval from county authorities and the Association. Fencing may be constructed by the Developer, and maintenance of fenced areas varies.
• What this document doesn't cover: This Declaration does not specify age restrictions, parking rules, rental caps, or any amenities beyond a mention of a pool and subdivision sign. It also does not detail the Association's bylaws or rules and regulations, which are referenced as separate documents.
