Shepards Square Owners Association Inc

What Shepards Square Owners Association Inc's governing documents say

This is a partial amendment to the covenants for Shepard's Square, a single-family HOA in Durham, NC. It updates rules on outdoor structures, signs, and solar panels, and it binds all lot owners. The amendment is not the full rulebook, so other rules from the original declaration still apply.

• Outdoor structures & yard items: No outbuildings, yard art, storage sheds, gazebos, trampolines, awnings, flags, or freestanding flagpoles are allowed without Architectural Review Committee (ARC) approval. Sheds, gazebos, and trampolines cannot be in front or side yards. Above-ground pools are banned except wading pools no deeper than 2 feet and no wider than 10 feet, which need ARC approval and must be emptied and stored when not in use.
• Signs: No signs are allowed without Association approval, except one for-sale sign (max 10 sq ft) and one political sign (max 10 sq ft) that can be up 60 days before an election and must be removed within 7 days after. No signs are allowed in common areas without written consent.
• Solar panels: Solar panels are prohibited on the front side of each dwelling facing the street. Other solar panels need approval from the Declarant during the Declarant Control Period, and later from the ARC.
• What this document doesn't cover: This is only a third amendment, so it doesn't cover the full set of HOA rules like assessments, maintenance duties, or leasing restrictions. Those are in the original Declaration, which remains in effect.
