What Woodbridgeii's governing documents say

This is a declaration of covenants, conditions, and restrictions for Woodbridge II, a residential community in Durham, North Carolina, established by the developer Willow Associates, Inc. It creates a homeowners association (HOA) to manage common areas and enforce rules, and it applies to all lot owners in the community.

• What you own & maintain: You own your lot and any living unit on it. The association maintains common properties and also provides exterior maintenance for each lot and living unit, including roofs, gutters, exterior surfaces, trees, shrubs, grass, and walks, with costs assessed to owners.
• Assessments & fees: Owners must pay regular and special assessments to the HOA. The maximum annual assessment starts at $540 per lot and can increase up to 5% per year without a membership vote; higher increases require a two-thirds vote. Unpaid assessments accrue 8% annual interest and become a lien on the property.
• Architectural review: No building, fence, wall, or other structure, nor any exterior change or landscaping change (outside a fenced area), can be started without written approval from the HOA board or an aesthetics committee. Approval is deemed given if not acted on within 30 days.
• Use & activities: Lots and living units must be used only for residential purposes permitted by zoning. No noxious or offensive activities, nuisances, or temporary structures for human habitation are allowed. The board can adopt rules limiting pets and their use of common areas.
• Common properties & parking: All members have an easement to use common properties, including access and parking in designated areas. Each living unit gets two designated parking spaces. The association can charge fees for common property use and suspend voting rights for unpaid assessments or rule violations.
• Party walls: Walls built on lot dividing lines are party walls. Repair and maintenance costs are shared proportionally by owners who use the wall. If destroyed, owners must restore it unless otherwise agreed, and disputes go to arbitration.
• Amendments & duration: The covenants run with the land for 20 years, then auto-renew for 10-year periods unless 75% of owners agree to change them. Amendments require a two-thirds vote of each membership class, with 30 days' notice, and must be recorded.
• What this document doesn't cover: This excerpt does not specify rental restrictions, pet limits (beyond board authority), or age restrictions. It also lacks details on HOA governance procedures beyond voting and assessments.
