About the Association

How the community is governed and what the association is responsible for.

Fountain Park HOA — legally Fountain Park Community Association, Inc. — is a North Carolina planned community in Buncombe County, North Carolina, governed by an elected board of directors and by covenants recorded against every lot.

The recorded Declaration

The Declaration of Covenants, Conditions, Restrictions and Easements for Fountain Park Subdivision was recorded on March 11, 2020 in the Buncombe County Registry at Book 5873, Pages 457-513. It runs with the land, which means it binds every owner automatically on purchase, whether or not they have read it.

The full text and the Bylaws are in the document library. The association operates under the North Carolina Planned Community Act, Chapter 47F of the General Statutes.

What the association does

The association maintains common areas, administers the architectural review process, enforces the recorded covenants, and manages the annual budget and reserve fund on behalf of all homeowners.

How decisions are made

The board meets on a regular schedule. Meetings are open to homeowners and include a comment period. Major decisions — assessments, large capital projects, amendments to the governing documents — follow the process laid out in the bylaws.

Architectural review

Exterior modifications require written approval before work begins. Anything not specifically permitted by the Rules and Regulations and the Declaration needs a request — including paint colors, fences, roofing, additions and significant landscaping changes.

Submit both the Request to Change Exterior and the signed Conditions for Approval. Response is typically within two weeks. Take no action until you have written approval and have met every stated condition.

Assessments

Regular assessments fund operations, maintenance and reserve contributions. The approved budget is posted under Homeowner Documents.
