What High Springs's governing documents say
High Springs is a planned community in Clayton, NC, governed by a homeowners association (HOA). This document set includes the community's Declaration of Covenants, Conditions, and Restrictions (CC&Rs) and an architectural change request form. It applies to homeowners and, through the HOA, affects residents.
- Architectural review: Any exterior changes require prior written approval from the HOA or architectural committee. Submit a separate application with detailed plans, and allow up to 30 days for review. Work starting before approval may result in fines, and approved projects must be completed within 90 days.
- Assessments & fees: Homeowners pay annual assessments to fund common expenses. For 2023, the maximum is $35 per lot and $200 per living unit, with future increases capped at 110% of the prior year unless members vote otherwise. A working capital fund of at least two months' assessment is collected at closing. Special assessments up to $500 per lot/unit may be levied with a two-thirds vote, and unpaid assessments become a lien on the property.
- Property maintenance & use: Owners must maintain street shoulders and ditches, install sod in ditches back 20 feet from the pavement, and limit impervious surfaces (like driveways and patios) to 3,500 square feet per lot unless approved.
- Membership & voting: Every lot owner is a member of the HOA. Each lot gets one vote, but the developer holds five votes per lot until certain conditions are met. A quorum for meetings is 10% of votes, and proxies are allowed for up to 11 months.
- Common areas & amenities: The association maintains common areas, including private streets, stormwater controls, and any amenities. Owners have a right to use these areas, but the HOA can charge fees for recreational facilities and suspend use rights for unpaid assessments or rule violations (up to 60 days).
- What this document doesn't cover: This excerpt does not include rules on leasing, pets, age restrictions, or specific architectural guidelines beyond the request form. Those may be in other sections of the CC&Rs or separate HOA rules.
