Windsor Forest Home Owner's

What Windsor Forest Home Owner's's governing documents say

Windsor Forest is a single-family home HOA in Keller, TX. These governing documents (a 1984 declaration, a 1992 declaration, and a 2011 fence amendment) establish rules for the community's appearance, use, and maintenance. Homeowners are bound by architectural controls, use restrictions, and assessment obligations.

• Architectural review: All exterior changes (buildings, fences, landscaping) require prior written approval from the Architectural Control Committee. Plans showing design, materials, and location must be submitted; if not acted on within 30 days, approval is deemed granted. Minimum 80% of exterior wall area (100% on front) must be brick, stone, or similar approved material. Roofing must be composition shingles (240 lb+).
• Minimum floor area & building size: Per the 1992 declaration, the main residence must have at least 2,500 square feet of air-conditioned living area (excluding porches, garages, patios). Single-story homes under the 1984 declaration required 2,200 sq ft ground floor; two-story required 1,500 sq ft ground floor plus 700 sq ft second floor. Max height: 36 feet (1984) or 2 stories (1992).
• Fences & walls: Fences visible from the street must be iron, masonry, or wood (wood acceptable per 2011 amendment). No chain link, barbed wire, or wire fences in front. Max height 6 feet unless approved. Retaining walls on property lines are the high-side owner's responsibility and must be approved materials (cross-tie walls not allowed).
• Pets & animals: No livestock or poultry; up to 4 household pets (dogs/cats) per lot. Pets must be confined to owner's back lot (fenced) or inside house. Owner must keep lot clean and pets properly tagged. No commercial breeding or food animals.
• Parking & vehicles: No boats, RVs, campers, or similar vehicles parked in street or visible from street unless stored out of view. Trucks over 3/4 ton or with painted ads cannot park overnight (except builders during construction). No inoperative/abandoned vehicles allowed on lots unless screened. Garage doors must open to side/rear or be screened from street.
• Signs & antennas: Only one 'For Sale' sign (max 5 sq ft) per lot, plus builder signs up to 9 sq ft during construction. Antennas generally must be in attic; one roof antenna allowed (max 5 ft above roof) with committee approval. Satellite dishes allowed only in back yard if completely screened from street view.
• Assessments & fees: Monthly assessments are due semiannually (Jan 1 and July 1). The board sets the amount; maximum can increase annually per CPI without vote, or by 2/3 member vote. Delinquent assessments accrue 10% annual interest and become a lien; HOA can sue or foreclose. Assessments are subordinate to mortgages but must be paid by owner.
• Use restrictions & single-family occupancy: Lots are for single-family residential use only. Each residence may be occupied by one family (related by blood/marriage/adoption) or no more than two unrelated persons, plus household servants. No business, professional, or commercial activity allowed unless quiet in-home activities (e.g., tutoring) that don't increase traffic or disturb neighbors.
