Before you rely on this page
Timberline Trace has more than one recorded section and they are not identical - this page reads Section B and Section B Phase 1 together, and the paragraph numbers differ slightly between the two, which is why the citations name the section. Timberline Trace A has its own page. Minimum house sizes here run 1,200 square feet for a one-storey, 1,000 for a one-and-a-half or bi-level, and 720 for a two-storey - unusually small for the county, and worth checking against your own section.
A fence forward of the minimum building setback line is allowed only if it is no more than four feet high AND it is an ornamental fence of the kind normally put on a residential lot. The covenant spells out what that excludes: chain link, solid fences and privacy fences. Behind the setback line the covenant does not set a rule.
A lot may carry one accessory building suitable for use in a residential area, in addition to the house and the garage. The size limits are specific: an accessory building may not exceed 200 square feet, or 8 feet at the eaves and 10 feet at the ridge. A private garage may not exceed 660 square feet, or 9 feet at the eaves and 18 at the ridge if detached. Everything has to be built of new materials, to a quality at least as good as the houses already there, and no trailer, tent, shack, garage or outbuilding may be lived in.
Boats, motor homes, trailers and other recreational vehicles may not be stored anywhere nearer the front lot line than the minimum building setback line shown on the plat. Behind that line the covenant does not restrict them.
An above-ground pool is allowed only if it is completely screened from the neighbouring lots by architectural or landscape screening, and the association has to approve that screening.
No building may be put up, placed or altered until the plans, specifications and a site plan showing where the structure goes are approved on quality of workmanship and materials, how the design sits with the houses already there, and placement against the topography, finished grade and the existing trees. Approval or refusal comes in writing - and if nothing comes back within thirty days, or no written stop notice arrives before the work is finished, approval is not required. A lot carries one detached single-family house of no more than two storeys, a garage for up to three cars, and one accessory building.
Every TV and CB tower antenna has to be approved by the Timberline Trace Homeowners Association. The covenant was written before satellite dishes were common and does not mention them; federal rules on over-the-air reception devices also protect a dish under one meter on property in your own exclusive use and control, so ask the association how it treats one.
