The Declaration of Covenants, Conditions and Restrictions (CC&Rs) applies to all lot owners and occupants, establishing rules for architectural control, property use, and maintenance to preserve community standards.
- Architectural review: Any exterior construction, alteration, or landscaping change requires prior written approval from the Architectural Committee. Applications are deemed disapproved if not acted upon within 45 days.
