Foxbank Plantation

What Foxbank Plantation's governing documents say

Foxbank Plantation is a single-family home HOA community in Moncks Corner, SC. You own your house and lot, and the Homeowners’ Association maintains shared common areas like parks, stormwater facilities, and entry features. An Architectural Review Board (ARB) controls all exterior changes, and there are specific standards for home size, pets, and use.

• Architectural review: All exterior improvements — buildings, fences, landscaping changes, paint colors, even removing trees — require prior written approval from the ARB. The ARB can approve or deny based on aesthetics. If no decision is made within 30 days of a complete application, it's considered approved. Construction must be completed within one year.
• Pets: You may keep dogs, cats, or other small household pets, but no breeding or commercial use. Pets must be leashed on common areas, and owners must clean up waste. The Board can require removal of a pet deemed a nuisance.
• Leasing & rentals: Leases must be in writing and state they are subject to all governing documents. A lessee may be assigned the owner's rights and obligations if the lease so provides. There is no minimum lease term or restriction on the number of rentals beyond the lease requirement.
• Home size & use: All lots are for single-family residential use only. The main dwelling must have at least 1,400 heated square feet (exclusive of garages, porches, etc.). No business or commercial activity is allowed without ARB approval, though incidental home offices are permitted.
• Assessments & fees: Annual assessments start at $425 per unit (2006 maximum) and can increase up to 15% per year without owner vote. Special assessments under $500 per unit per year may be imposed by the Board; larger amounts need approval from 67% of owners. Assessments are uniform per lot and can be liens if unpaid.
• Maintenance responsibilities: The Association maintains common areas, landscaping on common property, stormwater facilities, and entry features. Each owner maintains their own house, lawn, trees, driveway, and other exterior improvements. If an owner doesn't maintain to community standards, the Association can step in after notice and bill the owner.
• Parking & vehicles: The document does not specifically address parking rules beyond the ARB's jurisdiction over parking area construction and the Association’s ability to tow vehicles in violation of parking rules as part of enforcement.
• Enforcement & fines: The Association can fine violators (e.g., up to $50 per pet violation), suspend voting rights or common-area use for up to 60 days, file liens for unpaid assessments, and take legal action. Owners are responsible for the actions of all occupants and guests.
