Dogwood Landing

What Dogwood Landing's governing documents say

Dogwood Landing is a standard single-family home HOA in Wilmington, NC. These covenants, conditions, and restrictions (CC&Rs) apply to all lot owners, residents, and guests in Phase I. The rules aim to maintain a uniform, attractive residential community with strict architectural controls and property standards.

• Lot use & construction standards: Lots are for residential use only. No mobile homes, modular homes, or manufactured housing. Houses must have at least 2,200 heated square feet, be built on a crawl space, and meet ARC design guidelines. Front elevations must include decorative features like quoin corners or soldier courses.
• Architectural review (ARC): All building designs, exterior colors, landscaping plans, fences, and satellite dishes require prior written approval from the Architectural Control Committee (ARC). Plans must be submitted with blueprints and site plans; ARC has 30 days to approve or deny. If no response in 30 days, approval is not required, but the design must harmonize with existing structures.
• Property maintenance & nuisances: Owners must keep lots neat and tidy, with grass no taller than 8 inches, tree limbs removed up to 6 feet, and debris cleared. No statues, yard decorations, or artificial wildlife. No noxious trades or nuisances. The association may clean the lot and charge the owner plus 15% service fee if they fail to maintain it.
• Parking & vehicles: All vehicles must be parked in driveways; no parking on lawns, common areas, or roadways overnight. Inoperable vehicles, those without current registration/inspection/insurance, and tractor-trailers are prohibited. No vehicle repairs in driveways lasting more than one day. Boats, RVs, campers, and trailers must be stored in an enclosed garage, not visible from the street.
• Pets: Only domesticated household pets allowed, not for breeding or commercial purposes. Prohibited breeds: Rottweilers, Presa Canarios, Dobermans, Chow-Chows, Pit Bull breeds, and Wolf Hybrids. Pets must be leashed on common areas, waste must be cleaned up, and owners must repair any damage. The association can require removal of a pet that violates rules.
• Leasing & rentals: No specific lease term minimums or rental restrictions are mentioned in this document. The document does not address leasing rules.
• Assessments & fees: Annual assessments are set by the Board and can be increased up to 25% per year without member vote. Special assessments require 2/3 vote of Class A members. A nonrefundable working capital assessment equal to three months of annual assessment is due at purchase. Delinquent assessments accrue interest and can become a lien on the lot.
• What this document doesn't cover: This document does not specify the current assessment amount, common area amenities (e.g., pool, clubhouse), or any age restrictions. It also does not include rules about leasing or rental caps.
