Bryson Homeowners Association Inc

What Bryson Homeowners Association Inc's governing documents say

This is a City of Raleigh required covenant for the Bryson development, a planned community with common elements and expenses. It binds the homeowners association and all property owners to comply with Raleigh 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 open space, tree conservation, insurance, and utility maintenance.

• What this document covers: This is a city-mandated covenant that imposes specific obligations on the Bryson HOA and all owners, including maintaining open space, tree conservation areas, landscape easements, and private utility lines. It also requires the association to carry at least $1,000,000 in liability insurance and to comply with Raleigh city code.
• Open space & tree protection: Permanently protected undisturbed open space areas cannot be disturbed without a city watercourse permit. Tree conservation areas are protected by a conservation easement, and any tree disturbing activity requires a permit and may result in significant financial consequences.
• 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 the association's written consent.
• Insurance: The association must maintain 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 may do the work and charge owners, with late fees and liens possible.
• Access & easements: Owners have easements over common elements for access, and there are access easements for repairs on adjoining lots. Governmental authorities have permanent access rights for public safety and utility work.
• What this document doesn't cover: This document does not contain typical HOA rules like pet limits, leasing restrictions, architectural review, or parking rules. Those would be in the community's main declaration, bylaws, or other governing documents.
