Amended and Restated Declaration of Convenants,
Easements, Building and Use Restrictions
It is not safe to assume that any structure that is on your property is there legally. Prior to replacing or making any alterations to the outside of your property these changes must be in accordance with the current Declaration of Covenants, please contact the board at
[email protected]
for approval prior to starting any job.
The Declaration of Covenants specify that the replacement or additions of decks or patios need prior approval from the board. Please include all the pertinent information including builder's drawings, dimensions, and materials to be used to the board prior to the start of the job.
If you are painting the outside of your house, only colors that will be harmonious with the rest of the houses in the subdivision are allowed. Vibrant colors are not appropriate choices for the exterior painting of your entire house. Please contact the board for further clarification prior to painting.
The Declaration of Covenants specifies the type of materials that are allowed or not allowed to be used if you are adding or replacing the siding on your home. Again, contact the board for approval before starting your job.
Please be aware if you are replacing your driveway asphalt is not allowed. A permit from the City is also required.
Other areas in our Declaration of Covenants specify that homeowners are required to repair and maintain include damaged gutters, peeling paint, foggy windows, rotten trim or flat panels, condition of mailboxes, regular mowing/weeding and landscape maintenance to name just a few items.
The Declaration of Covenants states that no dog runs/pens, sheds, or breeding of animals are allowed. Only dogs/cats or other household pets are allowed. No fencing with the exceptions of pools which are restricted to certain requirements/materials. No privacy fencing is allowed. No logo cars/trucks, boats, RVs or trailers parked in your driveway.
All of the Declaration of Covenants were designed to maintain the integrity of our subdivision and enhance our property values. Please do your part to preserve the beautiful, harmonious and open-air concept of our subdivision.
We have spent a lot of man hours and money to clean up and beautify our entrances. Please to do not throw wood, limbs, concrete etc. behind the entrance signs. The Commons area is another problem area where people are dumping and contributing to our flooding issues. Dumping is also a violation of our Declaration of Covenants. Please take pride in your subdivision and respect the property and your neighbors. Farmington Hills has a great recycling program which makes it easy to recycle this waste properly. Below is information to help you find the location for the appropriate waste materials and the schedule for hazardous waste disposaIt is adding issues to the flooding conditions that we are trying hard to correct and manage.
Wood-Waste Recycling

Latex Paint
Please properly dispose of latex paint. Pouring paint on the ground or down the storm drains where it travels directly to surface and/or groundwater is illegal.
Latex paint is not considered hazardous. Remove the lid and allow the liquid to air dry or use a drying agent such as kitty litter. Once the paint is dry, place it in a regular trash bag and put it out for trash collection.
Recycle Oil Based Paints
Oil-based paints are considered a household hazardous waste and should be
disposed through household hazardous waste collection events.
You can solidify oil-based paints by allowing their contents to evaporate in a well-ventilated area. Then, mix remaining liquids with absorbents and allow it to harden. Alternatively, apply leftover paint to scrap lumber or cardboard. Then place these scraps with your regular trash.
