Conclusions

Support for 5 large animals is around 60% Horses Donkeys Alpacas Beef Goats

Support for 10 chickens is around 60%

Proposed Animal Changes

Allow 5 large animals per lot

Each large animal variety to be included will then be voted on separately

Allow 10 chickens per lot

Increase corral size to 3000 sq ft

Increase allowable outbuildings to 3 with no change in combined size of 3000 sq ft

Voting Percentages

Change the percentage of votes required to amend covenants from 66 2/3rds% to 51%

Based on feedback from other covenant committees and this committee’s experience Currently a minority of homeowners determine

policy for the majority Achieving 66 2/3rds% positive votes for any

issue requires nearly full participation of homeowners

Historically it has been difficult to get this level of participation
