Covenants & HOA Dues

HOA Dues

The annual HOA dues for the 2026 fiscal year are $100.00 per lot. When you purchase a home in the Stone Bridge Estates HOA, you must pay the annual HOA dues, and any special assessments, as approved by homeowners under the terms of the HOA covenants.

The dues cover the costs of the Association’s public liability insurance; operating expenses like legal fees, printing, and postage; room rental for the annual meeting; and the cost of electricity, snow removal, and lawn care to maintain common areas.

If you need an HOA letter for a sale or refinance transaction, please contact Janell.

Protective Covenants

Since it was established in 2001, Stone Bridge Estates has protective covenants. They are legally binding on all Stone Bridge properties. Stone Bridge Estates has nine parts, each developed consecutively (see map); a set of covenants was established for each part. While there are some differences between the covenants, all exist to maintain the cohesive character of the neighborhood, maintain property values, and preserve peaceful conditions and well-being for residents.  All City ordinances apply in addition to the HOA covenants.

Covenant Enforcement

Homeowners agree to abide by the Stone Bridge HOA Covenants through the purchase of their home. These covenants provide a framework for all residents to live with, and identify conditions that impact the neighborhood or neighboring properties.

When the HOA Board receives a complaint of a violation of the covenants, the Board will contact the violating homeowner, inform them of the complaint, gather additional information, request the property owner take appropriate action to correct any violations, and follow up to ensure it is resolved. In some instances, the Board may need to seek legal consultation. If a city ordinance has been violated, the Board defers the complaint to the City of Iowa City.
