Undisclosed Raleigh Area HOA

Difficult Process
City: Raleigh
County: Wake
ZIP Code: 27601
State: NC
A homeowner with an east-facing home was denied solar panel installation on the front roof while a west-facing neighbor directly behind them was approved for panels on both front and rear roof surfaces. The inconsistent enforcement -- denying one homeowner while approving a neighbor with similar street visibility -- suggests arbitrary decision-making rather than a consistent aesthetic standard. This pattern of selective enforcement may violate the "effect of prohibiting" language in N.C.G.S. SS 22B-20.
Outcome: Unresolved
