I agree with BogeyBoy...the only mention in the covenants about car washing says you cannot use irrigation water. Other than that you can use the potable water out of the faucets to wash your vehicles.

If we have another drought situation (saying this sounds silly after 7+ inches of rain this week), the Water Company might impose restrictions on car washing.

Flower pots are probably OK, but, more subject to interpretation as a "lawn ornament" than a pink flamingo. Just don't overdo it. All within reason.

To plant a few small trees/bushes in your landscape beds ... probably doesn't require approval. A major landscape plan, including planting near utility boxes or side/rear boundary lines.... you're better off submitting it ahead of time for approval lest a neighbor complain.

Common sense generally prevails....
