LOST CREEK RESTICTIVE COVENANTSDeed restrictions, also known as Restrictive Covenants are designed to maintain a certain look and feel of the neighborhood. This means that there are by-laws governing the neighborhood which prohibit homeowners from doing certain things to the detriment of the community. It is important that you read the document attached to your deed regarding these restrictions. There are separate deed restrictions for each phase of Lost Creek. For your convenience, restrictions for each phase can be found below and printable.
ARCHITECTURAL CONTROLLost Creek has an
Architectural Control Committee which governs and maintains these restrictions throughout the neighborhood. Any plans needing approval, questions or concerns may be directed to the Architectural Control Committee prior to construction.
Before homes are built in the Lost Creek Subdivision, plans are reviewed by members of the Architectural Committee. Occasionally, homeowners desire to build something on their property such as an extra room, a porch, swimming pool, or a fence for example. Prior to construction, homeowners must submit plans to the Architectural Control Committee for approval in the phase in which their home is located. Aside from plan approval from the City of Fort Worth Planning and Development Department, only the Architectural Control Committee in your particular phase has the authority to approve the plans and construction project you submit.
It is recommended you ask for written approval of your project. You should have received a copy of your covenants from your realtor or from the title company when you purchased your home. If not, the deed restrictions were filed for public record when the subdivision was developed. You may obtain a copy at the Tarrant County Court House.
The Neighborhood Association of Lost Creek Estates, Inc. (NALCE) is not part of the Architectural Control Committee; therefore, any communication regarding restrictive covenants should be directed to the Architectural Committee Member(s) in your particular Phase. Contact information for each Architectural Control Committee member is listed in the NALCE Neighborhood Directory.
