What Rainbow Ridge Homeowners Association, Inc.'s governing documents say

Rainbow Ridge is a single-family home subdivision in Fort Worth, Texas, governed by a recorded Declaration of Covenants, Conditions and Restrictions (CC&Rs). These covenants run with the land and apply to all owners, dictating how you use and build on your lot. The document focuses on preserving a uniform residential character and restricting certain activities.

• Residential use: Lots are for single-family residential purposes only. One residential structure per lot, max two stories, plus a private garage and incidental outbuildings; no oil or gas drilling on your lot.
• Architectural review: All building plans, specifications, and lot plans must be approved in writing by a Building Committee (originally Steve Hawkins) before construction, assessing cost, quality, materials, and design harmony with existing homes. Approval or rejection is given within 30 days.
• Building & construction standards: Minimum floor area is 900 sq ft (excluding open porches, garages, breezeways). First floor must be at least 60% masonry. Roofs must be wood shingle, shake, clay tile, or composition as approved. No evaporative coolers on front walls/windows; AC compressors must be behind the front building line.
• Landscaping & fences: No fences, walls, or mass plantings are allowed in the front yard (between building setback and front property line) or on corner lots between front/side setback and street side lines. All outbuildings must match the residence's architectural style and materials.
• Parking & vehicles: Trucks over 3/4 ton cannot park overnight on streets or driveways. No vehicles carrying flammable/explosive cargo. No recreational vehicles, trailers, campers, or boats stored in the open; they must be fully enclosed in a garage or carport. No junk vehicles or vehicles in disrepair can be stored or displayed.
• Pets & animals: No livestock, poultry, or animals raised for commercial purposes. Dogs, cats, and other household pets are allowed as long as they are not kept for commercial purposes.
• Property upkeep & nuisances: No dumping of rubbish; trash must be kept in sanitary containers and hidden from the street. All equipment/supplies must be in closed storage. No temporary structures (trailers, mobile homes, tents) may be used as residences.
• What this document doesn't cover: This is the declaration of restrictions only; it does not include HOA bylaws, fees, assessments, or enforcement procedures. Those may be in separate governing documents.
