Ask before you start
These need written approval first. Doing the work and asking afterwards is the expensive way round — approval takes about two weeks, and it isn't granted retroactively.
Exterior paint colour
Any change to the body or trim colour needs written approval. Two weeks to hear back, and painting first doesn't get forgiven.
Fences
Six feet maximum, cedar or wrought iron, finished side facing out. Replacement in the same spec still needs a form.
Roofing
Architectural shingle, approved colour list. Approval required.
Sheds and structures
Anything over 100 sq ft needs approval, and a city permit as well.
Other rules
Bins
Out of street view except on collection day.
Parking
No boats, RVs or trailers on the street overnight.
Oakwood HOA
Exterior paint and fences need approval before you start. Two weeks to hear back.
