What Glenspringforest's governing documents say

This is the declaration of covenants, conditions, and restrictions for The Glen on Spring Forest, a planned community of detached single-family homes in Raleigh, NC, governed by a homeowners association (HOA). It applies to all lot owners in the subdivision and sets out the rules for property use, assessments, and the HOA's powers.

• What you own & maintain: You own your lot and home; the HOA owns and maintains the common areas, including stormwater facilities, private streets, and open space. You must maintain any common-area easement on your lot, and you can't alter common areas without permission.
• Leasing & rentals: You may lease your home, but leases must be in writing, for at least six months, and include a clause binding the tenant to the HOA rules. You must provide a copy of the lease to the HOA.
• Assessments & fees: The HOA charges annual assessments, initially capped at $600 per lot (until 2007), with annual increases limited to 10% unless approved by a majority vote. Special assessments may be levied for capital improvements or stormwater obligations. Unpaid assessments become a lien on the property.
• Voting & membership: Each lot gets one vote in the HOA, but the developer holds three votes per lot until control transfers. If you rent out your home, your vote is limited to 49% weight on any matter.
• Common area use: All owners have the right to use common areas, but the HOA can charge fees for facilities and suspend your access for unpaid assessments (after 30 days) or rule violations (up to 60 days).
• What this document doesn't cover: This excerpt doesn't include architectural review rules, pet restrictions, or specific maintenance obligations for your home's exterior. Those may be in later articles or separate rules.
