| What
are the covenants? Covenants are an agreement to abide by preset guidelines for your home's aesthetics and landscaping. They are also the focus of a complex topic. We are entwined between Neighborhood HOAs (which exercise immediate design controls within their neighborhoods) and the Master Association (which enforces covenants in non-HOA areas and has some global responsibilities to the existing community) and finally, Douglas County, which has final authority over decisions related to new development. |

| What
is the Master Declaration? There is a set of Covenants which govern the entire Castle Pines North community outlined in the Master Declaration (clicking this link will open a 131 KB .pdf file of the document). These are the design guidelines for the whole community. Covenants are enforced by the Neighborhood HOAs, most of which have adapted some additional covenants that apply specifically to their neighborhood. It is a goal to have all sub-hoa covenant documents available online by the end of 2002. It will only happen if you insist on it with the sub association you belong to and it matters to you to access these documents online. The Master Association is responsible for covenants in non-HOA neighborhoods and may become involved in resolving disputes regarding Neighborhood HOA actions. |

| What
can I do to my home? Most exterior improvements to existing homes, including landscaping, are subject to review by the Neighborhood HOAs' Design Review process or the Architectural Control Committee. The Master Association is responsible for the Design Review process of new custom homes. It also submits comments regarding the design of new homes built by the major developers in our community. Douglas County is the final authority for these homes. |

| Individual
HOAs Each Neighborhood HOA serves a specific area of neighborhoods. They are funded by dues paid by its residents. Technically, hard copy of each HOA's covenants should exist within reach of its members. Contact your HOA for a copy. (See the directory of HOAs at the top of this page) |
