Owen Oaks

What Owen Oaks's governing documents say

Owen Oaks (Rendon, TX) is a single-family residential subdivision governed by deed restrictions recorded by the developer. These restrictions focus on land use, property maintenance, and compliance with Johnson County regulations. There is no homeowners association or governing board; enforcement is by any property owner through written notice and potential legal action.

• Residential Use: Each lot is limited to one single-family residence. Mobile homes are allowed but may not be used as permanent dwellings. Barndominiums are permitted. Shipping container homes are prohibited.
• Parking & Storage: Inoperable vehicles (without current registration or inspection, or not in working condition) must be stored out of sight (garage, behind fence, or covered). Commercial parking lots are prohibited.
• Business & Agricultural Use: No commercial businesses may operate on the property, except for minor agricultural activities (small-scale livestock, gardening, beekeeping, crop production). Home-based businesses are allowed only if they do not create excessive traffic, noise, or disturbances.
• Rubbish, Trash, and Debris: Properties must be kept free of excessive trash, debris, or junk. No lot may be used as a dump or landfill.
• Nuisance or Offensive Activity: Activities causing excessive noise, strong odors, improper waste disposal, or disturbances are prohibited. Owners may take legal action if an activity affects health, safety, or property enjoyment.
• Drainage & Floodplain Requirements: Blocking water flow or constructing improvements in drainage easements is prohibited. Houses in the 100-year floodplain must have a finished floor elevation at least 3 feet above the floodplain elevation. Driveway culverts must be at least 18 inches in diameter to pass a 5-year storm flow. The existing creeks/drainage channels must remain open and be maintained by the individual lot owners. Johnson County has a right to enter and clear obstructions in drainage easements.
• Sewage Facilities: Private sewage facilities (septic systems) must be designed and maintained per Johnson County and TCEQ regulations. The county does not guarantee performance and the owner is responsible for upgrades if the system creates odors, unsanitary conditions, or noncompliance.
• What this document doesn't cover: This document is a deed restriction, not a full HOA CC&R. It does not cover pet restrictions, leasing/rental limitations, architectural review, assessments or fees, common area maintenance, or age restrictions. There is no homeowners association.
