Inlet Detention Ponca Maintenance Requirements
The wet detention basin system is defined as the wet detention basin, pretreatment including forebays and the vegetated filter if
one is provided.
Important maintenance procedures:
_ Immediately after the wet detention basin is established, the plants on the vegetated shelf and perimeter of the
basin should be watered twice weekly if needed, until the plants become established (commonly six weeks).
_ No portion of the wet detention pond should be fertilized after the first initial fertilization that is required to
establish the plants on the vegetated shelf.
_ Stable groundcover should be maintained in the drainage area to reduce the sediment load to the wet detention
basin.
If the basin must be drained for an emergency or to perform maintenance, the flushing of sediment through the
emergency drain should be minimized to the maximum extent practical.
- Once a year, a dam safety expert should inspect the embankment.
After the wet detention pond is established, it should be inspected once a month and within 24 hours after every storm event
greater than 1.0 inches (or 1.5 inches if in a Coastal County). Records of operation and maintenance should be kept in a
known set location and must be available upon request.
Inspection activities shall be performed as follows. Any problems that are found shall be repaired immediately.

deemed to covenant and agree to pay to the Association: (1) annual assessments or
charges, and (2) special assessments for capital improvements, such assessments to be
established and collected as hereinafter provided. The annual and special assessments,
together with interest, costs, and reasonable attorney's fees, shall be a charge on the land
and shall be a continuing lien upon the property against which each assessment is made.
Each such assessment, together with interest, costs, and reasonable attorney's fees, shall
also be the personal obligation of the person who was the Owner of such property at the
time when the assessment fell due. The personal obligation for delinquent assessments
shall not pass to his successors in title unless expressly assumed by them.

assessment applicable to that year only for the purpose of defraying, in whole or in part,
the cost of any construction, reconstruction, repair or replacement of a capital

vote of each class of members who are voting in person or by proxy at a meeting duly
called for this purpose.

notice of any meeting called for the purpose of taking any action authorized under Section
3 or 4 shall be sent to all members not less than thirty (30) days nor more than sixty (60)
days in advance of the meeting. At the first such meeting called, the presence of members
or of proxies entitled to cast sixty percent (60%) of all the votes of each class of

meeting may be called subject to the same notice requirement, and the required quorum
at the subsequent meeting shall be one-half of the required quorum at the preceding
meeting. No such subsequent meeting shall be held more than sixty (60) days following
the preceding meeting.
Section 5. Rate of Assessment. The Association may differentiate in the amount of
Assessments charged when a reasonable basis for distinction exists, including but not
limited to as between vacant Lots of record and Lots of record with completed dwellings
for which certificates of occupancy have been issued by the appropriate governmental
authority, or when any other substantial difference as a ground of distinction exists
between Lots. However, Assessments much be fixed at a uniform rate for all Lots similarly
situated.
Section 6. Date of Commencement of Annual Assessments: Due Dates. The annual
assessments provided for herein shall commence as to each Lot upon the date of
acceptance by an Owner of a deed from Declarant The Board of Directors shall fix the

every Owner subject thereto. The due dates shall be established by the Board of
Directors. The Association shall, upon demand, and for a reasonable charge, furnish a

issuance.
Section 7. Effect of Nonpayment of Assessments: Remedies of the Association. Any
assessment not paid within thirty (30) days after the due date shall bear interest from the
due date at the rate of 18% per annum. The Association may bring an action at law
against the Owner personally obligated to pay the same, or foreclose the lien against the
property. No Owner may waive or otherwise escape liability for the assessments provided
for herein by non- use of the Common Area or abandonment of his Lot.
Section 8. Subordination of Lien to Mortgage. The lien of the assessments provided for
herein shall be subordinate to the lien of any first mortgage. However, the sale or transfer

sale or transfer. No sale or transfer shall relieve such Lot from liability for any
assessments thereafter becoming due or from the lien thereof.

ARTICLE V
ARCHITECTURAL. CONTROL
Section 1. Developer's Rights. All.duties and responsibilities conferred upon the
Architectural Review Committee by this Declaration or the Bylaws of the Association shall
be exercised and performed by the Declarant or its Designee, so long as Declarant shall
own any lot in the Properties or any additions annexed thereto by Supplemental
Declaration or Amendment to this Declaration.
Section 2. Building and Site Improvements.
(a) No dwelling, fence, wall or other structure shall be commenced, erected, or
maintained upon any Lot in the Properties, nor shall any exterior addition to or change or
alteration therein be made until the plans and specifications showing the nature, kind,
shape, heights, materials, and location of the same shall have been submitted to and
approved in writing as to harmony of external design and location in relation to
surrounding structures and topography by the Declarant, or its designee, or, after the sale
of all lots by Declarant, by the Board of Directors of the Association, or by an Architectural
Review Committee composed of three (3) or more representatives appointed by the
Board. In the event the Declarant, or its designee, or, if applicable, the Board, or its
designated committee, fails to approve or disapprove such design and location within
thirty (30) days after said plans and specification shave been submitted to it, approval will
not be required and this Article will be deemed to have been fully complied with. Refusal
of approval of any such plans, location or specification may be based upon any ground,
including purely aesthetic and environmental considerations that in the sole and
uncontrolled discretion of the Declarant or Architectural Review Committee shall seem
sufficient. One copy of all plans and related data shall be furnished to the Declarant or
Architectural Review Committee, as the case may be, for its record. Neither the Declarant
nor the Architectural Review Committee shall be responsible for any structural or other
defects in plans or specifications submitted to it or any structure erected according to such
plans and specifications.
(b) No concrete block, concrete brick, asbestos siding, aluminum siding, cinder
block nor tar paper composition shall be used for the exterior of any residence constructed
on any building lot herein conveyed, it being intended that only conventional brick, clay
brick, vinyl or exterior composition sidings for exteriors be constructed on the lots subject
to these covenants.
Section 3. Approval of Plans.

(a) No house plans will be approved unless the proposed house shall have a
minimum of 1200L square feet of enclosed dwelling area for one story homes and 1800
square feet of enclosed dwelling area for two story homes. No home shall exceed a
maximum square feet of 3500 for a one story home and 4000 square feet for a two story
home The term "enclosed dwelling area" as used in the minimum requirements shall be
the total enclosed area within a dwelling, provided, however, that such term does not
include garages, terraces, decks, open porches, and like areas; provided, further, that
shed type porches, even though attached to the house are specifically excluded from the
definition of the aforesaid term "enclosed dwelling area".
(b) Since the establishment of inflexible building setback lines for location of
houses on lots tends to force construction of houses directly to the side of other homes
with detrimental effects on privacy, view, preservation of important trees and other
vegetation, ecological, and related consideration, specific setback lines are established by
New Hanover County Zoning. In order to assure, however, that the foregoing
considerations are given maximum effect, the site and location of any house or dwelling or
other structure upon any lot shall be controlled by and must be approved absolutely by the
Declarant or the Architectural Review Committee, as the case may be. Provided,
however, that no dwelling shall be constructed closer than five (5) feet to an adjoining
property line.
(c) The exterior and landscaping of all houses and other structures must be
complete within twelve (12) months after the construction of same shall have commenced,
except where such completion is impossible or would result in great hardship to the
Owner of builder, due to strikes, fires, national emergency or natural calamities.
(d) No structure shall be erected, altered, placed, or permitted to remain on
any lot, except one single family dwelling not to exceed two stories in height, exclusive of
any structural pilings unless the Declarant or the Architectural Review Committee, as
the case may be, approves in writing a structure of more than two stories, and one or
more small accessory buildings (which may include a detached private garage, servants
quarters, or guest facilities) provided the use of such dwelling or accessory building does
not in the opinion of the Declarant or Architectural review Committee overcrowd the site,
and provided further, that such buildings are not used for any activity normally conducted
as a business. Such accessory building may not be constructed prior to the construction
of the main building.
(e) All service utilities, fuel tanks, clothes lines, wood piles, and trash and
garbage accumulations are to be enclosed within a fence, wall or plant screen of a type
and size approved by a Declarant of the Architectural Review Committee, so as to
preclude the same from causing an unsightly view from any highway, street or way within
the subdivision, or from any other residence within the subdivision. All mail boxes shall be
uniform in design. Design for mail boxes shall be furnished by the Declarant.

(f) Off street parking for not less than two (2) passenger automobiles must be
provided on each lot prior to the occupancy of any dwelling constructed on said lot, which
parking areas and the driveways thereto shall be constructed of concrete, brick, asphalt or
turfstone. No overnight on street parking shall be permitted.
(g) All front, rear and side yards shall be sodded, except for planting beds,
shrubbery, trees, patios or other areas designated by the Declarant or the Architectural
Control Committee.
In the event that the need for maintenance, repair, or replacement (other than said be
caused by fire, lightning, windstorm, hail, explosion, riot, riot attending a strike, civil
commotion, aircraft, vehicles, and smoke as the foregoing are defined and explained in
North Carolina Standard Fire and Extended Coverage Insurance Policies) is caused
through the willful, or negligent act of the Owner, his family, guests or invitees, the costs of
such maintenance, replacement or repairs shall be added to and become a part of the
assessment to which such lot is subject.
ARTICLE VI

expense of the Owner, and such entrance shall not be deemed a trespass, and in the
event of such removal a lien shall arise and be created in the favor of the Association for
the full amount thereof chargeable to such Lot, including collection costs and such
amounts shall be due and payable within thirty (30) days after the Owner is billed
therefore. Such lien shall be enforceable by Court proceedings as provided by law

any Lot or dwelling unit within the Properties unless and until permission for the same has
been granted by the Board of Directors of the Association or its Architectural review
Committee.
