What Stoney Fork's governing documents say

Stoney Fork is a single-family residential subdivision in Clayton, NC, governed by a homeowners' association (HOA). This declaration applies to all lot owners and sets rules for property use, assessments, and architectural control.

• What you own & maintain: You own your lot and home outright. You're responsible for maintaining the shoulders and ditches along your property line, installing sod in ditches, and keeping your septic system (if applicable).
• Assessments & fees: Annual assessments are capped at $25 per lot and $250 per living unit for 2023, with future increases limited to 110% of the prior year. A working capital fund of at least two months' assessment is collected at closing. Special assessments up to $500 per lot/unit may be levied with member approval.
• Architectural review: No building, fence, or other structure may be erected or altered without written approval from the Declarant or the Architectural Review Board. Approval is based on aesthetic considerations at their sole discretion. If no decision is made within 60 days, approval is deemed granted.
• Land use & building type: Lots are for single-family residential use only. Only one detached single-family dwelling (max 2.5 stories) and a private garage for up to 3 cars are allowed. Minimum main structure size is 1,200 square feet. Mobile homes, manufactured homes, and modular homes are prohibited.
• Parking & vehicles: No trucks, trailers, junked, or unregistered vehicles may be parked on lots without approval. Recreation vehicles and boats may only be parked in the rear yard. No all-terrain vehicles, dirt bikes, or go-carts are allowed on streets or lots.
• Pets & animals: Only usual household pets are allowed, with a maximum of three dogs and cats per lot. Pets must be kept within an approved fenced enclosure, not chained or tied to a stake, and must be leashed when off the owner's property. No commercial breeding or 'runs' are permitted.
• Fences & accessory buildings: Fences require written approval, cannot exceed six feet in height, and chain-link fences are prohibited except black chain-link. Accessory buildings (e.g., detached garages, storage sheds) require approval and must use approved materials; metal storage buildings are not allowed.
