McCoy Creek Ranch
Covenants
To maintain the property's values and keep the area looking great there are a few simple covenants that
run with this land. This IS NOT a heavily restricted parcel like you would normally find in this part of the
state. These simple covenants help keep your property value high and benefit everyone! You can hunt,
camp, and mobile homes are allowed.
These covenants are to run with the land and shall be binding on the Purchaser and all persons claiming
under him.
A. This property shall be used for residential and recreational purposes only. No swine shall be
raised, bred, or kept in a commercial capacity. A parcel may be used for ranching, including
the use of keeping a reasonable number of horses and cattle thereon, provided the parcel
has been fenced. Under no circumstances shall a stockyard or any other commercial activity
(other than ranching) involving animals be permitted. Any animals kept on this property shall
be maintained in such a manner that they do not present a nuisance to owners of neighboring
parcels. Kennels with greater than three dogs are not permitted.
WHY THIS IS GOOD FOR YOU: This means that your neighbor can't get mad at you and
locate a dozen hog houses on the boundary with your parcel. This al prevents your neighbor
from building an apartment house or operating a go-kart track next door to your peaceful
haven.
B. No structure of temporary character (Ex. tent or lean-to type structure) shall be used as a
residence. Such structures may be used for recreational purposes, but shall not be allowed to
remain on any parcel for more than two (2) months during a calendar year. Mobile homes,
recreational vehicles & travel trailers are allowed.
WHY THIS IS GOOD FOR YOU: This property is great for camping and we encourage this
type of activity. What this covenant prevents is a neighbor setting up a permanent tent city.
Nobody wants that as a neighbor.
C. No derelict vehicles may be kept on any parcel unless kept in an enclosed garage. Derelict
vehicles are defined as those which either do not run, or are not licensed.
WHY THIS IS GOOD FOR YOU: Prevents your neighbor from having 10 broken down cars
next to your property .This means that your neighbor can't use his parcel as a place to strip
cars or to run a junk yard
D. Waste materials must be kept in closed containers at all times. Parcels must be kept free of
refuse, debris, and rubbish. No parcel may be used for temporary or permanent storage of
rubbish or trash (collectively, garbage). Burying or dumping of garbage, junk, trash, oil,
petroleum or other liquid or solid waste or littering of any kind on any parcel is strictly
prohibited.
WHY THIS IS GOOD FOR YOU: This means your neighbor can't dump trash from his
landscaping business there just because they charge to do that at the land-fill.
E. The beauty of the Property is in the mixture of trees and open space. Trees having a
minimum trunk diameter of six inches and measuring two feet above ground level may only
be cut if the following conditions are met: a) are dead or dying or; b) removal is required to
clear land for building sites, access roads, fire prevention, enable installation of utilities, view
