What Inonaplace's governing documents say

This is a City of Raleigh required 'City Code Covenant' for Inona Place, a new residential development in Raleigh, NC. It's a legal overlay that ensures the homeowners association and property owners comply with city ordinances, especially regarding common areas, stormwater, trees, and open space. It's not the full HOA rulebook—it's a supplemental document that binds the association and all owners to city requirements.

• What this document covers: This is a City Code Covenant required by Raleigh for developments with common elements. It sets obligations for the HOA and owners to comply with city codes, including tree conservation, open space protection, stormwater, and insurance. It does not contain typical HOA rules like pet limits or architectural guidelines.
• Who it binds: It binds the Inona Place Homeowners Association, Inc., all property owners, and their successors, and gives the City of Raleigh enforcement rights. Owners automatically become members of the association when they buy a lot.
• Common elements & maintenance: The association must maintain common elements, including tree conservation areas, landscape easements, and private stormwater facilities. It must carry at least $1,000,000 in liability insurance and hazard insurance on common elements.
• 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. Owners may enter these areas only with city and association consent, except on their own lot.
• Stormwater & private utilities: The association owns and maintains private stormwater control measures and any private water or sewer lines serving more than one lot. If the association fails to maintain them, the city can do the work and charge owners, with liens and late fees.
• Access & easements: Owners have access easements over common elements for ingress/egress. There are also easements for repair of structures (if within 5 feet of a lot line) and for government agencies to access for utilities, safety, and mail delivery.
• Parking & sight triangles: Any parking restrictions on public streets apply only to owners and their family/tenants. Sight triangles must be kept clear of obstructions between 2 and 8 feet tall.
• What this document doesn't cover: This document does not include typical HOA rules like pet limits, leasing restrictions, architectural review, or assessment amounts. Those would be in the separate Declaration and Bylaws, which are not provided here.
