BAY HILLS FENCE GUIDELINES

Due to the large number of submittals to the Board of Directors for the erection of fences on the residential properties within Bay Hills, the Board of Directors has adopted the following guidelines applicable to the construction of fences:

1. Backyard Fences: a. Backyard fences will be approved providing they extend only to the rear line of the house. No fence is to be built so that it would project beyond the front line of any adjacent residence as indicated by the diagram. b. Height shall be limited to six (6) feet and the fence may be finished in paint, stain, or left natural, but, in any event, must have a consistent finish and not be left partially painted or stained. c. The finished side of the fence must be erected so as to face the public view. d. No chain link fence will be approved.

2. Frontyard Fences: a. No fences constituting a complete enclosure of the front yard will be approved. b. Partial decorative fencing units such as are used to define property corners or driveway corners consisting of a limited number of fence sections will be approved depending upon the design of the submission. These decorative fencing units are limited to open wood fences and limited in height to be approximately 36 inches. The number of sections which will be approved for each residential property will be at the discretion of the Board of Directors or Architectural Committee and will depend on the individual submission. No chain link fences will be allowed. d. Any partial decorative fencing unit can be painted stained, or weathered naturally providing there is a consistent finish. e. The finished side of the fencing of any partial decorative fencing unit approved will be erected to face the public view.

3. No swimming pool applications can be approved without a closed fence around the pool which can be entered only through the residence or through a locked gate. The fence constituting the enclosure must have a six (6) foot minimum height.

4. If a submission is made to the Board of Directors or Architectural Committee for any structure upon a residential property which is deemed hazardous, the Board of Directors and the Architectural committee reserve the right to require fencing of a designated height and type as a condition of approval.

The above guidelines are not intended to be all inclusive. Under the deed of restrictions affecting all property in Bay Hills, any structure proposed to be erected upon any of the lots in the sub-division must be submitted to the Board of Directors and the Architectural Committee for approval prior to erection. The Board of Directors and the Architectural Committee reserve the right to disapprove any submission which they deem not to be in the best interest of the community as a whole, but the above guidelines are intended to give the residents guidance in their planning for improvements to their property as to what proposals will be acceptable. Amended December 1983: “The Board of Directors will require that all applications be accompanied by written statements of position concerning the request from the adjacent neighbors.”


BAY HILLS STORAGE SHED GUIDELINES

The following recommendations were presented to the Board of Directors and published in the March 1979 Newsletter: "Due to the increasing number of submittals to the Board of Directors for approval of storage and other small sheds to be built on the residential properties within Bay Hills, the following guidelines are presented." "In general, a storage or other permanent shed to be built on a lot will be approved under any of the following three conditions:"

1. If the structure is placed at the rear of the house, forming an extension of the lines of the house, and matching the house in exterior finishing.

2. If the shed is wooden and its placement is obscured from the streets of Bay Hills and from neighbors, and if immediate neighbors give prior approval. Said neighbors must sign construction plans before submission to the BHCA.

3. If the structure is totally out of sight from the streets of Bay Hills and from all neighbors - - for example, if the property is enclosed by a tall wooden fence that totally blocks from view the presence of the shed or similar outbuilding.

"The above guidelines are not intended to be all inclusive. Under the deed of restrictions affecting all property in Bay Hills, any proposed structure to be erected on any of the lots must be submitted to the Board of Directors or Architectural Committee for approval prior to erection. The covenants provide a 30-day period for consideration by the Board of Directors, so plans should be submitted, accordingly, as soon as possible. The Board and Architectural Committee reserve the right to disapprove any submission which they deem not to be in the best interest of the community as a whole, but the above guidelines are intended to give the residents guidance in their planning for improvements to their property as to what proposals will be acceptable."
