What Price Creek Estates's governing documents say

Price Creek Estates is a single-family home subdivision in McKinney, TX, governed by a Declaration of Restrictions recorded in 1995. This document sets rules for homeowners about lot use, construction, pets, vehicles, and maintenance, with enforcement by the Grantor or a future homeowners association.

• Use & dwelling requirements: Lots are for single-family residential use only. Minimum dwelling size is 1,300 sq ft (excluding carports, but including porches). Only one dwelling per lot unless approved.
• Construction & completion deadlines: Site-built homes need written approval from Grantor before construction. Exteriors must be finished within 6 months of groundbreaking. Manufactured homes must have foundations, wood-like siding, and a front porch of at least 32 sq ft within 90 days of placement.
• Pets & animals: Up to 6 domestic pets per household allowed. No sheep, goats, or swine except for school/4-H projects. Poultry allowed if fenced and not commercial. Livestock limited to 2 adult head per acre owned. Animals must not interfere with neighbors.
• Vehicles & parking: Inoperable vehicles without current license plate and inspection may be towed at owner expense after 120 days. No temporary structures (tents, travel trailers, campers) used as permanent dwellings without written approval.
• Signs & nuisances: No billboards or signs larger than 4 square feet (except Grantor's sales signs). No noxious or offensive trades. No rubbish piles, scrap, or household appliances left on property. Lawns must be mowed to under 9 inches.
• Enforcement & fines: Violators face a $25/day fine after 3 days' notice by certified mail. The Grantor or Association may enter and repair the property at owner's expense if owner fails to maintain. Attorney's fees and court costs are recoverable if the enforcing party prevails.
• Duration & amendments: Restrictions run for 10 years from recording, auto-renewing for successive 10-year periods. Amendments require 60% lot owner approval during the first 10 years, then 70% thereafter, and must be recorded.
• Road maintenance fee (ancillary): A separate Road Easement Agreement imposes a $1 per month per tract fee for gravel road maintenance, payable with monthly payment or by December 1 annually, held in escrow. This agreement runs until 2002 and auto-renews unless changed by majority vote.
