other structures are to be erected or maintained upon said strips of land, but owners of lots in this
subdivision shall take their titles subject to the rights of the public utilities.
All lots in this subdivision are reserved for residential use, and no building other than a one family
residence or structure or facility accessory in use thereto shall be erected thereon.
Not more than one building shall be erected or used for residential purposes on any lot in this subdivision.
The ground floor area of the main structure, exclusive of one-story open porches and garages shall be

shall be of a permanent type of construction and conform to the general architecture and appearance of
such residence.
No fences shall be erected in this subdivision between the building lines and the property lines of the

Association, which fences shall not exceed forty-two (42) inches in height and shall be of a decorative
nature.
No building, structure or accessory building shall be erected closer to the side of any lot than ten (10)
feet, however, any proposed construction closer than fifteen (15) feet to the side of any lot must be

garage or other approved structure.
All lot owners will be required to install, or have installed, at least one gas or electric "dusk to dawn" yard
light in the front.
No building shall be erected, placed or altered on any building plot in this subdivision until the building

conformity and harmony of external design with existing structures herein and as to the building with
respect to topography and finished ground elevation, by the Brookshire Homeowners' Association,
owners of the herein described real estate, or by their duly authorized representatives. If the Brookshire
Homeowners' Association fails to act upon any plans submitted to it for its approval within a period of
thirty (30) days from the submission date of the same, the owner may proceed then with the building
according to the plans as submitted. Neither the Brookshire Homeowners' Association nor the designated
representative shall be entitled to any compensation for services performed pursuant to this covenant.
In the event storm water drainage from any lot or lots flows across another lot, provision shall be made to
permit such drainage to continue, without restriction or reduction, across the downstream lot and onto the
natural drainage channel or course, even though no specific drainage easement for such flow of water is
provided on the Brookshire plat.
No animals, livestock or poultry of any description shall be raised, bred or kept on any lot, except that
dogs, cats or other household pets may be kept, provided that they are not kept, bred or maintained for
commercial purposes.
No lot in this subdivision shall be used or maintained as a dumping ground for rubbish, trash or other

suitable incinerators.
It shall be the duty of the owner of each lot in the subdivision to keep the grass on the lot properly cut and
to keep the lot free from weeds and trash and otherwise neat and attractive in appearance and in
compliance with these covenants or restrictions. Should any owner fail to do so then the Brookshire
Homeowners' Association may take such action as it deems appropriate in order to make the lot neat and
attractive and otherwise in compliance with these Covenants, and the owner shall upon demand
reimburse the Brookshire Homeowners' Association for the expense incurred in so doing. If not paid, the
Brookshire Homeowners' Association shall then be entitled to its costs of collection and reasonable
attorneys' fees, and a lien in the name of the Brookshire Homeowners' Association may attach to the
property for the full amounts owed.
The foregoing covenants or restrictions are to run with the land and shall be binding on all parties and all
persons claiming under them for a period ten (10) years from the date hereof, at which time said
covenants or restrictions shall be automatically extended for the successive period of ten (10) years
unless changed by a vote of a majority of the then owners of the buildings covered by these covenants or
restrictions, in whole or in part. Invalidation of any one of the foregoing covenants or restrictions, by
judgment or court order, shall in no way affect any of the other covenants or restrictions, which shall
remain in full force and effect.
The right to enforce these provisions by injunction, together with the right to cause the removal, by due
process of law, of any structure or part thereof erected, or maintained in violation hereof, is hereby
dedicated to the public and reserved to the Brookshire Homeowners' Association and/or the several
owners of the several lots in this subdivision and to their heirs and assigns.
