What Camelback Farms's governing documents say

Camelback Farms is a subdivision of single-family residential lots in Glendale, AZ, governed by a Declaration of Restrictions recorded in 1974. These covenants run with the land, binding all owners until at least 2001 and automatically extending every 10 years unless a majority votes to change them. There is no homeowners' association; enforcement is by lot owners or the original subdivider.

• Allowed uses & building type: Lots are limited to one single-family dwelling. Permitted structures include a private garage or carport, and a stable/livestock shelter/tack room (minimum 24x20 ft, harmonious design).
