What Quarter Horse Estates HOA, Inc.'s governing documents say

Quarter Horse Estates is a single-family home HOA in Fort Worth, Texas. You own your lot and house; the association maintains common areas and enforces uniform rules. This guide is based on the most recent 2019 Declaration (Phase 2), which supersedes earlier versions.

• Architectural review: All exterior construction, alterations, fences, and landscaping must be approved by the Architectural Control Committee (ACC). Plans are deemed approved if the ACC does not disapprove within 20 business days. Appeals go to the Board.

• Use restrictions: Lots are for single-family residential use only. Prohibited activities include: illegal activity, nuisances, trash dumping, storage of building materials outside construction, inoperable vehicles, commercial use (except home office), clotheslines visible from street, and signs beyond specific allowances (e.g., one sale sign ≤5 sq ft, political signs 90 days before election).
• Vehicles & parking: Operable automobiles may be parked on driveways or in garages. Boats, trailers, campers, and inoperable vehicles must not be stored on the street or front yard. Garage may not be converted to living space.
