What Arbors on Bowen's governing documents say

This is a standard single-family home HOA for The Arbors on Bowen, a residential subdivision in Mansfield, TX. It binds all lot owners and residents to covenants covering land use, architectural controls, assessments, and community standards.

• Land use & occupancy: Lots are for single-family residential use only. Each lot may have one detached single-family residence (max 2 stories) and a private garage. Occupancy is limited to one family (persons related by blood, adoption, marriage, or no more than two unrelated persons living together as a single housekeeping unit), plus household servants.
• Architectural review: All exterior construction, alterations, fences, landscaping, and other improvements require prior written approval from the Architectural Control Committee. Plans and specifications must be submitted; the committee has 30 days to approve or disapprove. Fences must be approved and generally cannot exceed 8 feet in height.
• Assessments & fees: Semi-annual assessments are levied by the association to fund maintenance of common property (including the easement tract). Assessments may be increased annually based on the Consumer Price Index without a vote. Special assessments for capital improvements require 60% approval of member votes. Assessments are a lien on the property and a personal obligation of the owner.
• Pets: Up to three adult household pets (dogs, cats) are permitted per lot. Pets must be leashed or under voice control when outside, must not run loose, and must not create a nuisance. Commercial breeding is prohibited. Dog runs must be inside approved perimeter fences.
• Parking & vehicles: No recreational vehicles (boats, campers, trailers) may be stored on lots or streets except inside a closed garage or fenced area. No inoperable vehicles may be parked on streets. Emergency auto repair is allowed in driveways, but major repairs are prohibited on streets or common areas.
• Leasing & rentals: Owners may lease their homes without association approval, but must provide the tenant's name, address, and lease term to the association. The lease term must be at least six months.
• Maintenance & landscaping: Lot owners must keep their property neat and orderly, include landscaping with an underground sprinkler system, and maintain all improvements. The association maintains the entrance gate, perimeter fence, and common landscape areas.
