The Landings at New Light

What The Landings at New Light's governing documents say

The Landings at New Light is a planned community of detached single-family homes in Creedmoor, NC, governed by a homeowners association (HOA). These documents are the HOA's bylaws and declaration of covenants, conditions, and restrictions (CC&Rs), which bind all lot owners. They cover how the association is run, what owners must pay, and rules about renting and using common areas.

• What you own & maintain: You own your lot and home; the association owns and maintains the common areas, including stormwater control measures and shared water/sewer lines. Owners are responsible for maintaining any common area easements on their lot, and the association can charge for upkeep if they don't.
• Leasing & rentals: You may rent your home, but leases must be for at least 12 months, in writing, and include a clause binding the tenant to the HOA rules. You must give the association a copy of the lease. While your home is rented, you lose access to common facilities.
• Assessments & fees: The association levies annual and special assessments on each lot, secured by a lien. If unpaid, late charges and 18% annual interest apply, and the association can sue or foreclose. The board sets the amount each year, with notice to owners.
• Voting & meetings: Each lot gets one vote, but owners who are more than 60 days delinquent on assessments lose voting rights. A 10% quorum is required for meetings, and proxies are allowed. The Declarant (developer) has extra voting power until the Declarant Control Period ends (by Dec 31, 2022, or earlier).
• Board of directors: The board manages the association, with 2-5 directors (3-5 after developer control). Directors must be members, serve staggered terms, and can be removed by majority vote. The board can make rules, suspend rights for rule violations (up to 60 days), and manage finances.
• Use of common areas: Owners, their families, tenants, and guests have a right to use common areas, subject to association rules. The association can charge fees for facilities and suspend use for unpaid assessments (30+ days) or rule infractions (up to 60 days).
• What this document doesn't cover: This excerpt does not include architectural guidelines, specific pet rules, or detailed restrictions on lot use (like fences or home businesses). Those may be in the full Declaration or separate rules.
