They are all available on District Gov site.
So what are the fine points between a "covenant" (something, I would think, most of us are used to in any properties we've purchased in any location, and "declarations" ? Is declarations" a word that does not carry the same legal weight as "covenant" ? Perhaps the wording allows the villages more latitude in "enforcement", or ignore all together ? Just curious why we differ from the wording of the majority of communities. Anyone know ?
