Lakeridge Farms

What Lakeridge Farms's governing documents say

Lakeridge Farms is a single-family residential subdivision in Fairview, TX, governed by a Declaration of Restrictions (CC&Rs) originally recorded in 1992. The rules apply to all lot owners and occupants, restricting land use to residential purposes and setting standards for construction, livestock, vehicles, and maintenance.

• Use restrictions: Lots are for single-family residential use only. Home occupations are allowed, but no other commercial activity is permitted. No temporary structures, mobile homes, or manufactured homes are allowed. Each home must have at least 1,500 gross square feet of floor space (excluding garage) and be built on site with new materials, with exterior finish completed within 120 days of construction. One dwelling per five acres owned.
• Setbacks & building restrictions: No building may be erected nearer than 40 feet to the front lot line nor 10 feet to any side lot line, except where terrain or lot shape requires a variance, which must be requested from the Grantor or Association. Replatting or subdividing must follow Collin County rules and these restrictions continue to apply.
• Pets & livestock: Dogs, cats, and other domestic household pets are allowed, but no commercial poultry, swine, or feed lots. Livestock is limited to two adult head of any kind per acre. Pets must be kept on the owner's property and not allowed to roam. No animals may be maintained that interfere with other owners' use and enjoyment.
• Vehicles & parking: No 'junk cars' (vehicles not moved in 60 days or without current inspection/tags) are permitted anywhere on the property.
• Fences & maintenance: No sheet metal fences or snow fences are permitted. All property, buildings, landscaping, and appurtenances must be kept in good, safe, clean, and neat condition. No wrecking yards, dumping of rubbish, or nuisances allowed.
• Road maintenance: The interior private road is maintained by owners with frontage on that road per the Road Maintenance Agreement (Exhibit A). A monthly fee (amount not specified in this excerpt) is due from each affected owner, payable by June 1, with escrow funds used for road upkeep. Non-compliance constitutes a breach of contract.
• Enforcement & duration: The restrictions run with the land for an initial 10-year term (through ~2002) and automatically renew for successive 10-year periods unless changed by a majority vote of the Association. Violations may be enforced by legal action, including injunctions, damages, or liens, with the violating owner responsible for costs and attorney's fees.
