Megan's Place is a single-family home HOA in Wilmington, NC. You own your lot and house; the association maintains common areas (like private roads and stormwater ponds) and handles basic yard maintenance for all lots. This amended declaration sets the rules for what you can build, how you can use your property, and what the HOA can charge and enforce.

• What you own & maintain: You own your lot and house. The association maintains common elements (private roads, stormwater ponds) and provides basic yard maintenance (mowing, edging) for all lots. You must keep your property free of weeds and in good repair.
• Architectural review: Any new structure, exterior change, or painting needs prior written approval from the Board or an Architectural Review Committee. Plans are deemed approved if no decision is made within 30 days. Approval can be denied for any reason, including aesthetics.
• Minimum house size & construction: Each house must have at least 1,400 square feet of heated living area (excluding garages, decks, etc.). Exterior construction must be completed within 12 months of starting, unless delayed by strikes, fire, or natural calamities.
• Fences & structures: Back or front yard fences are strictly prohibited. Perimeter fences for noise reduction or security need prior ARC approval. No detached garages, outbuildings, temporary structures, sheds, or clotheslines are allowed.
• Parking & vehicles: Each lot must have off-street parking for at least 2 cars, with driveways made of washed aggregate. Boats, campers, trailers, and similar vehicles cannot stay on a lot or street longer than 3 days without Board approval. Inoperable or unregistered vehicles are not allowed and may be towed. No vehicle repairs visible from the street.
• Pets: Dogs, cats, and other household pets are allowed but not for commercial purposes. They must be leashed or controlled at all times and not become a nuisance.
