What Riverwalk Homeowners Assoc's governing documents say
Riverwalk Homeowners Assoc is a single-family residential HOA in Durham, NC, established in 1985. It governs lots and living units, with common areas maintained by the association. This document is the full declaration of covenants, conditions, and restrictions (CC&Rs) that applies to all owners.
- What you own & maintain: You own your lot and living unit. The association maintains common properties and provides exterior maintenance for each lot/unit, including roofs, gutters, exterior surfaces, trees, shrubs, and walks, with costs added to your annual assessment.
- Assessments & fees: Annual assessments start at a maximum of $540 per lot, can increase up to 5% per year without a vote, and higher increases require a two-thirds vote. Unpaid assessments accrue 6% interest and become a lien on the property, with collection costs and attorney fees.
- Architectural review: Any building, fence, wall, or exterior change (including landscaping) must be approved in writing by the board or an aesthetics committee. If no decision is made within 30 days, approval is deemed granted.
- Rental & leasing: The declaration does not restrict leasing or set minimum lease terms. Units may be rented, but owners remain responsible for assessments and compliance.
- Pets & animals: The board may adopt rules limiting or prohibiting types of animals or pets and governing their use of common properties. No specific pet limits are stated in this document.
- Use & occupancy: Properties must be used for residential purposes only, consistent with zoning. No trailers, mobile homes, tents, shacks, or garages may be used for human habitation, and no nuisance or offensive activities are allowed.
- Party walls: Walls built on lot dividing lines are party walls. Repair and maintenance costs are shared proportionally by owners using the wall; disputes go to arbitration.
- What this document doesn't cover: This document does not specify any age restrictions, income limits, or rental caps. It also does not detail specific pet rules or parking regulations beyond one designated parking space per unit.
