What Kelso Knoll Homeowners Association Inc's governing documents say
Kelso Knoll is a single-family home HOA in Cary, NC, governed by this master declaration under the NC Planned Community Act. It applies to all lot owners and their tenants, and covers architectural standards, rentals, parking, and assessments.
- What you own & maintain: You own your lot and home; the association maintains common areas (walkways, gardens, recreational areas) and common landscaping. You're responsible for maintaining your own lot, including lawn care beyond what the association provides.
- Architectural review: Any new construction, exterior alterations, fences, walls, or landscaping that acts as a fence requires written board approval. Plans must be submitted and approved within 60 days. Construction deposits are required: $25,000 for home construction, $10,000 for other improvements, and $25,000 for heavy construction vehicles over 10,000 lbs.
- Exterior standards: Driveways must use brick pavers or cobblestones consistent with the community. Exterior walls must be stucco, stone, or painted brick; roofs must match existing materials/colors. Exterior paint must be muted neutral colors. Garbage cans must be hidden from view, and clotheslines are not allowed.
- Leasing & rentals: Short-term rentals of less than 15 consecutive days are prohibited (e.g., Airbnb, VRBO). Owners may rent out a portion of their primary residence for more than 15 days but not more than 6 consecutive months. All tenants must follow the declaration and rules.
- Parking & vehicles: No vehicles without current NC inspection/license, vehicles over 7,500 lbs empty weight, campers, RVs, motor homes, or buses may park overnight on driveways/lots unless in an enclosed garage. Guests may park such vehicles up to 7 days per year. Flatbed trailers and utility vehicles cannot park overnight except in an enclosed garage. Boats may be parked on driveways only during daylight for loading/repairs.

- Assessments & fees: The board can increase annual assessments by up to 15% per year without a member vote. Unpaid assessments become a lien on the lot, enforceable under NC law.
