Parra Linda Estates

What Parra Linda Estates's governing documents say

This document is a commercial protective covenant recorded between two property owners (JEMtex Development No. 68, Inc. and James F. Mason, Trustee) in Parra Linda Estates Add, Keller, TX. It restricts land uses and imposes maintenance obligations on two specific parcels—the 'Property' (2.759 acres) and the 'Adjacent Property' (3.787 acres)—but does not create a homeowners association or set rules for residential owners. The reader is likely a developer, business owner, or buyer of these commercial lots.

• Permitted & prohibited uses: The Property cannot host theaters, health clubs, skating rinks, bowling alleys, grocery stores/supermarkets, religious uses, or entertainment-type activities (except a gasoline/service station or convenience store). The Adjacent Property is designated for a grocery store/supermarket (at least 25,000 sq. ft.) and related uses. No store selling alcohol for on-premises consumption is allowed except ancillary to food (under 50% of gross revenue).
• Building & parking requirements: Buildings on the Property must not exceed one story or 25 feet in height (except a cross-hatched area on Exhibit C). Parking must have at least 5 spaces per 1,000 sq. ft. of building. No cross-parking easements over the Adjacent Property are required.
• Maintenance obligations: Both owners must maintain their property in a well-kept, attractive condition, including litter removal, lawn mowing, tree/shrub pruning, watering, exterior lighting/mechanical repair, keeping parking areas and driveways in repair, and complying with all governmental requirements.
• Term & amendment: The covenants run with the land for 45 years from the recording date. Amendments require written consent of both Owner and Declarant (or their successors/assigns). The declaration may be terminated earlier if certain conditions (like failure to construct or operate the grocery store) are met.
• Enforcement: Only Owner and Declarant (and their successors/assigns) have the right to enforce the covenants. No other party acquires vested rights. Violations may be enjoined or damages awarded through judicial action.
• What this document doesn't cover: This is not a residential HOA declaration—there are no rules about pets, leasing to tenants, architectural review for homes, or common assessments. It only governs two specific commercial parcels and their mutual land-use restrictions.
