Royal Oaks Plat I

What Royal Oaks Plat I's governing documents say

Royal Oaks Subdivision (Plat I) in Prescott, AZ is a residential subdivision governed by deed restrictions filed in 1991. These covenants bind all lot owners and regulate building type, size, design, landscaping, and property use. Lot owners must comply with an Architectural Control Committee review process for all construction.

• Building type, size & setbacks: Only detached single-family dwellings allowed, max 2 stories/30 feet. Regular lots require minimum 1,200 sq ft (exclusive of garage/porch); manufactured homes (new double-wides only) restricted to lots 16-31. Setbacks: 40 feet front/rear, 20 feet side (25 feet on corner-lot street side).
• Architectural review & approval: All construction requires written Architectural Control Committee approval for design, materials, workmanship, and location. Committee has 30 days to approve or disapprove; failure to act within 30 days is deemed approval.
• Fencing & landscaping: Rear fences max 6 feet; front/side setback fences max 4 feet; side lot-line fences max 6 feet. All designs require Committee approval. Natural trees and shrubs must be preserved when possible.
