There is no doubt that Bryan Place homeowners like keeping their places updated. And while we enjoy more flexibility than many other neighborhoods, we must also remember there are covenants within the area. However, they vary from one location to another within our sub‐development. For instance, sections of most Bryan Place deeds refer to Unit Exterior and Lot Maintenance with this language: “Each Owner shall maintain the exterior of his Unit in an attractive manner and shall not permit the paint, roof, rain gutters, downspouts, exterior walls, windows, doors, walks, driveways, parking areas and other exterior portions of his Unit to deteriorate in an unattractive manner.”

We recommend that before you make any changes to your exterior that you double check that it adheres to city codes and that all permits are obtained before you begin construction.

Additionally, please refer to the Application for Proposed Exterior Home Improvements. BPNA residents who have paid their annual dues will find this form in their neighborhood telephone directory. Other residents can obtain this document from a BPNA Board Member. Completion of this form not only protects the integrity of our neighborhood, but may avoid potential lawsuits if covenants aren’t followed. Please remember to complete a form and obtain BPNA Board approval before starting construction. Enforcement of Deed Restrictions is achieved through neighbors’ right to file lawsuits if they feel Deed Restrictions have been violated or their property values damaged.
