Introduction
Have you ever seen a neighborhood with 10 different types of fences? Most any fence (excluding chain link) will look good in isolation. The problem arises when fences start joining one another.
Question: How do you make a
3 ft picket fence
look good when joined to a
6 ft solid/stockade fence?
Answer: You CAN'T!
With this in mind the board has chosen a utilitarian stance on the issue. In an effort to maintain a consistent look for the neighborhood and preserve the value of our homes, the board has decided on a single style of fence that we thought would have the broadest appeal.
Considerations
- The association does not mow your yard inside your fence.
- All construction must be approved by the board prior to any construction.
- You must also have city/county codes approval.
- You must keep your fence well maintained. (no bowing, recoat every few years, etc.)
- You must survey and build at the edge of your property line.
- You must allow neighbors to join to your fence, however the owner of the common wall must maintain that wall.
