What Savannah Farms Incpblc's governing documents say
Savannah Farms is a standard single-family homeowners association (HOA) in Alvarado, TX. This Declaration of Covenants, Restrictions and Easements establishes rules that run with the land, binding all current and future owners. It covers construction standards, property use, assessments, and enforcement—aimed at preserving the community's rural residential character.
- Minimum home size & construction requirements: Dwellings must have at least 924 square feet of air‑conditioned area (Section 5.07). Manufactured homes must be multi‑section, on a permanent foundation or properly anchored, with hitches and wheels removed and hidden by skirting, completed within 60 days of installation (Sections 5.08–5.12). Site‑built homes must be completed within six months; manufactured homes within 60 days (Section 5.33).
- Animals & livestock: No more than one animal unit per acre (excluding dogs and cats) is allowed (Section 5.26). Pit bulls are prohibited on any Lot (Section 5.26). Swine are never permitted; commercial feed lots, kennels, or ostrich operations are banned. Horses, livestock, and fowl must be confined within fencing on the owner's Lot.
- Vehicles, parking, & storage: Commercial vehicles, trucks, buses, trailers, RVs, and campers may not be parked in front of or within 50 feet of a side property line unless enclosed and hidden from view (Section 5.22). This restriction does not apply to RVs or small passenger trucks in good repair. Junk vehicles and inoperable vehicles must be stored out of sight (Section 5.21).
- Fencing & outbuildings: Fences along public roads must be wire with metal posts, pipe and sucker rod/cable, or chain link—no wood stockade fences along roads (Section 5.18). Outbuildings (barns, garages, sheds) and play structures require prior Declarant approval and must be in the back yard (Section 5.16). No unpainted corrugated metal outbuildings.
- Landscaping & maintenance obligations: Owners must keep grass mowed to no higher than 12 inches (Section 5.31). The Association may mow and charge the owner for non‑compliance. Trash, garbage, and woodpiles must be stored in the back yard and screened; containers may be at the curb only on collection day (Sections 5.20, 5.21, 5.27).
- Business & commercial use: Limited professional and hobby businesses are allowed within the residence or an outbuilding (Section 5.30). No auto repair shops, wrecking yards, or businesses requiring large buildings or open‑air storage. Excessive noise, odors, fumes, or traffic are prohibited.
- Assessments & fees: Each Lot is subject to annual assessments. Initially $0, but may be increased up to the greater of $25/year or 20% without membership vote; increases above 20% require a two‑thirds membership vote (Section 4.04). Assessments are a lien on the Lot and a personal obligation of the owner (Section 4.08).
- What this document doesn't cover: This document does not address rental restrictions, minimum lease terms, or specifically permit short‑term rentals—those rules, if any, would be found elsewhere. It also does not mention any age restriction or affordability requirements.
