Community Overview & Governance Edit page

Welcome to Imperial View, a beautifully planned residential community encompassing approximately 132 acres in Monongalia County, West Virginia.

Community Structure & History

• The Neighborhood: The subdivision spans the Morgan District and is comprised of three distinct areas: Phase I, Phase II, and Imperial East.
• Our Roots: The community was originally founded in the early 1980s by Bender & Company, Inc., and was successfully completed by two subsequent development firms.

The Property Owners Association (POA)

Imperial View is incorporated as a West Virginia non-profit organization. The POA holds legal title to and maintains all common elements of the neighborhood, including community streets, easements, rights-of-way, entrances, signage, and common area landscaping.

Governing Covenants & Restrictions

To maintain the high quality, aesthetic beauty, and property values of our neighborhood, all numbered lots are bound by a formal Declaration of Restrictions, Protective Covenants and Reservations:

• Residential Use Only: All lots are restricted strictly to single-family residential use.
• Binding Covenants: These restrictions "run with the land," meaning they automatically apply to all current and future deed holders.
• Duration: The covenants automatically extend in 10-year increments. Changes can only be made if a majority of all lot owners sign and record an official amendment.

Leadership & Committees

The neighborhood is actively managed by an elected Board of Directors (minimum of 3 members), executive officers (President, Vice President, Secretary, and Treasurer), and three focused committees:

• Building Control Committee: Ensures architectural standards are met.
• Maintenance Committee: Oversees the upkeep of common properties.
• Budget Committee: Manages the neighborhood's financial health.

All powers, duties, and meeting structures are strictly governed by the Imperial View Property Owners Association Bylaws.
