Guidelines
Revised 08/10/11
Background: When homeowners purchase their new home in Eagle Crest, they are given a copy of the Covenants, Conditions and Restrictions (CC&Rs) associated with the Eagle Crest development. The CC&Rs cover a wide range of rules and regulations governing our community. All homeowners agree to abide by the CC&Rs before closing the sale. However, in many cases when the homeowner relocates and rents their home, the CC&Rs are packed away with the rest of their personal property and the new occupant is unaware of the rules governing our community. This condensed, plain language excerpt of the CC&Rs is targeted specifically for our renters. This guide will by no means replace the original document.

Use Restrictions
7.1 Care and Use of Premises. The grounds shall be maintained in a neat and attractive manner. Keep grass and weeds cut and shrubbery pruned. Do not allow the accumulation of debris. In the event the Landscaping Committee, after giving reasonable notice to the owner of the violation of this section, shall have the authority to make the necessary correction and submit billings for the cost to the owner. Such charges will become a lien against the property and shall be treated as a special assessment under Article 5. Grass and yard debris are to be disposed of in the city provided green container or brought to Mailliards Landing located at 3068 N. Oak Harbor Road. No yard waste is to be disposed of in the common areas of Eagle Crest.
7.2 Fences. No fence or hedge shall be erected or maintained which shall unreasonably restrict the view of an adjoining lot or impair the general landscaping plan of the community. Rear and side yard fences are limited to six feet in height or as limited by City of Oak Harbor regulations. Fences are restricted from any point closer than twenty feet from the street right-of-way. All plans for fencing must be submitted to the Architectural Committee for approval prior to installation.

No reception or transmission devices may be located within the Common Area unless expressly permitted by the Board of Directors.
7.6 Vehicle Storage on Premises. The purpose of the parking and storage restrictions is to maintain a desirable community appearance. The parking of dump trucks, large vans or similarly large commercial vehicles detracts from the general community appearance. Restrictions applying to specific vehicles are listed below:

The intent of the light columns is to provide a subdued source of lighting for the community in conjunction with the installed street lights. Lamp posts are to be illuminated from dusk to dawn.

7.17 Building Uses. All uses of the residential structure with the exception of a home office as authorized are Section 7.12 must be those normal to residential occupancy.
