Edwards Mill Townhomes Owners Association Inc

What Edwards Mill Townhomes Owners Association Inc's governing documents say

This is a drainage easement declaration for Edwards Mill Townhomes, a townhome community in Raleigh, NC. It is not a full set of community rules; it only governs stormwater management and drainage across three lots (3, 4, and 5). It binds the owners of those lots and the homeowners association, not individual residents.

• What this document covers: It creates perpetual drainage easements over Lot 5 for the benefit of Lots 3 and 4, allowing stormwater to flow through and be managed on Lot 5. It also sets maintenance responsibilities for the stormwater system.
• Who is responsible for maintenance: The Edwards Mill Townhomes Owners Association is responsible for maintaining the drainage easement areas and stormwater control measures (detention pond, swales, pipes, level spreader). Each owner must maintain stormwater measures on their own tract.
• Cost sharing: Maintenance costs are shared pro rata: Lot 3 pays 19.23%, Lot 4 pays 17.31%, and Lot 5 pays 63.46%. Annual assessments are due by May 1, with a 1.5% monthly interest charge for late payment. Emergency assessments may be levied by the board.
• Insurance requirement: Each owner must carry casualty and liability insurance for stormwater control measures on their tract, with liability coverage of at least $1,000,000, naming other owners and the association as additional insureds.
• Penalties for non-maintenance: Failure to maintain stormwater control measures violates Raleigh City Code and may result in significant daily civil penalties. The City of Raleigh can also perform maintenance and assess costs to owners.
• What this document doesn't cover: This document does not cover typical HOA rules like pets, leasing, architectural review, parking, or use of common areas. It only addresses stormwater drainage and related maintenance.
