Description
The document titled 'Agreement Creating Restrictive Covenants' serves to establish a set of covenants, conditions, and restrictions for a residential subdivision in Ohio. The primary distinction between covenants and agreements in Ohio lies in their enforceability; covenants are binding obligations attached to the property that run with the land, while agreements generally encompass mutual obligations between parties. This form is designed to promote fair property values and maintain the character of the subdivision by ensuring all lot owners adhere to specific restrictions and regulations set by the homeowners' association. The document includes provisions for membership in the association, the authority of the association regarding rules and governance, and the process for amending or terminating the agreement, requiring at least 75% owner consent for modifications. Target audiences including attorneys, partners, owners, associates, paralegals, and legal assistants will find this form useful for creating tightly-controlled community standards, enhancing property value, and ensuring compliance with local laws. Users should complete each section carefully, keeping track of required signatures and the submission of a written agreement to the county clerk for legal recognition. It is essential to review the covenants regularly to adapt to changes in ownership or community needs.
