Sign restriction prohibits or curtails political signs during the protected 45-day pre-election to 7-day post-election window without declaration disclosure required by N.C. Gen. Stat. § 47F-3-122.
“Political signs, candidate placards, and commercial contractor signs are strictly prohibited on any Lot or Common Area at all times.”
Why It’s Flagged
N.C. Gen. Stat. § 47F-3-122
N.C. Gen. Stat. § 47F-3-122: Bars prohibiting the indoor or outdoor display of political signs on a lot/unit before 45 days before an election and 7 days after an election (nor restrict sign dimensions below 24 inches by 24 inches) unless the Declaration explicitly states that it regulates or prohibits political signs and, for declarations registered on or after October 1, 2005, prints on the first page in boldface capital letters: "THIS DOCUMENT REGULATES OR PROHIBITS THE DISPLAY OF POLITICAL SIGNS." Unrecorded Board rules cannot prohibit political signs.
