Hargett Oaks Homeowners Association

What Hargett Oaks Homeowners Association's governing documents say

This is a City of Raleigh required covenant for Hargett Oaks, a cluster/townhome development in Raleigh, NC. It binds the homeowners association and all owners to comply with Raleigh's city code, covering common areas, stormwater, tree conservation, and utility maintenance. It is not a full rulebook—it supplements the community's actual declaration and bylaws.

• What this document covers: This is a city-mandated covenant that makes the HOA and owners responsible for maintaining common elements, open space, stormwater facilities, and private utility lines, and for complying with Raleigh's code.
• Common elements & maintenance: The HOA must maintain common elements, including landscape easements, tree conservation areas, and private water/sewer lines serving more than one lot. Owners have easements over common areas for access and utilities.
• Tree conservation & open space: Undisturbed open space and tree conservation areas are protected; no tree disturbing activity without a city permit. Owners may enter these areas only with city and HOA consent (unless on their own lot).
• Insurance: The HOA must carry hazard insurance on common elements and liability insurance of at least $1,000,000, with premiums as common expenses.
• Parking & sight triangles: Parking restrictions on public streets apply only to owners, family members, and tenants. No sight-obstructing objects between 2 and 8 feet tall in designated sight triangles.
• Utility lines & cost recovery: The HOA owns and maintains private water/sewer lines. If the HOA fails, the city may fix them and bill owners, with late fees and liens if unpaid.
• What this document doesn't cover: This covenant does not include typical HOA rules like pet limits, leasing restrictions, architectural review, or specific fees—those are in the community's separate declaration and bylaws.
