Covenants and Restrictions
Covenants and Restrictions
Covenants and Restrictions, also known as CC&Rs, are a set of rules and limitations that govern the use and development of properties within a specific community or subdivision. These rules are typically established by the developer or homeowners association and are recorded with the property deeds, making them legally binding on all current and future property owners. Covenants and Restrictions may address a wide range of issues, such as architectural design standards, landscaping requirements, parking regulations, and permitted land uses. The purpose of CC&Rs is to maintain the character, quality, and value of the community by ensuring that all properties are developed and maintained in a consistent and harmonious manner. Enforcement of Covenants and Restrictions is typically the responsibility of the homeowners association, which may impose fines or other penalties for violations.
