Brandemere Homeowners Association Inc

What Brandemere Homeowners Association Inc's governing documents say

This is a City of Raleigh required covenant for the Brandemere development, a cluster unit development with common elements and common expenses. It binds the homeowners association and all property owners to comply with Raleigh's city code, and it supplements the community's main declaration and bylaws. This document is not a full rulebook; it focuses on city-mandated obligations like tree conservation, stormwater, and insurance.

• What this document covers: This is a city-required covenant that makes the property and its governing documents subject to Raleigh's city code, with specific rules on tree conservation, open space, landscape easements, insurance, and private utility lines. It does not contain typical HOA rules like pet limits, leasing restrictions, or architectural guidelines.
• Tree conservation & open space: Tree conservation areas and permanently protected undisturbed open space are protected; no tree disturbing activity or land disturbance is allowed without a city permit. The association holds a conservation easement for these areas.
• Landscape easements: The association is responsible for maintaining and replanting shrubs and trees in designated landscape easements, and these costs are common expenses. Owners cannot remove vegetation in these areas without association consent.
• Insurance: The association must carry hazard insurance on common elements and liability insurance of at least $1,000,000, with premiums paid as common expenses.
• Private utility lines: Private water and sewer lines serving more than one lot are owned and maintained by the association. If the association fails to maintain them, the city can do the work and charge owners, with late fees and liens for nonpayment.
• Access easements: Owners and tenants have access easements over adjoining lots for repair of structures, and government agencies have access rights for public safety and utility work.
• What this document doesn't cover: This document does not cover typical HOA rules like pet restrictions, leasing terms, architectural review, or parking rules. Those would be in the community's main declaration and bylaws, which are not included here.
