What Oakhaven Homeowners Association Inc's governing documents say
Oakhaven is a single-family home HOA in Durham, NC, governed by a Declaration of Protective Covenants. This document sets out the rules for homeowners and residents, covering assessments, maintenance, and use restrictions. It is the full rulebook for the community.
- Assessments & fees: Annual assessments are set by the Board and can be paid quarterly. Special assessments require a two-thirds vote of all owners. Late charges and interest (up to 18% per year) apply, and unpaid assessments become a lien on the property.
- Maintenance responsibilities: The Association maintains common areas, entry features, street lights, and stormwater facilities. Owners are responsible for maintaining their own lots, homes, and landscaping, and must keep them consistent with the community standard.
- Architectural review: Any exterior changes, including construction, alterations, fences, pools, sheds, and even tree removal (over 4 inches in diameter) require prior written approval from the Architectural Review Committee. The committee can withhold approval for any reason, including aesthetics.
- Leasing & rentals: Lots may be leased, but leases must be for at least 12 months. Tenants must receive and comply with the governing documents, and the Board can evict tenants on the owner's behalf if they violate rules.
- Parking & vehicles: Street parking is prohibited, and commercial vehicles, boats, trailers, and recreational vehicles must be parked in enclosed garages. Garage doors must stay closed except when entering or exiting. RVs and boats left for more than three days can be removed at the owner's expense.
- Pets & animals: Only usual household pets like dogs and cats are allowed, in reasonable numbers as determined by the Board. No commercial breeding. Dogs must be leashed outside, and pets that cause damage or nuisance must be removed.
- Use restrictions & nuisances: Lots are for residential use only. Home offices are allowed if they don't create a nuisance. Prohibited activities include using firearms, burning trash, installing window air conditioners, and having exterior clotheslines. Exterior lighting, signs, and artificial vegetation are restricted.
- What this document doesn't cover: This excerpt does not include the full text of the Declaration, such as insurance details, condemnation procedures, and the complete list of easements. It also doesn't specify the exact amount of annual assessments or the current rules and regulations adopted by the Board.
