The Lakes HOA

The Lakes considers itself to be a lush, lake subdivision. Desert landscape lovers may want to consider if they can part with their cactus. Here are some samples from the HOA’s architectural guidelines for properties within the subdivision:

GRASS & GROUND COVER: To achieve and maintain The Lakes lush green look yards and other land visible from the street, from the lake or from neighboring properties at ground level shall have as predominant ground cover either approved artificial/turf grass or an approved dense vegetative ground cover. The maximum non-vegetative ground cover yard area (i.e.: rock, pavers) is 20%. The remaining yard area shall consist of approved lawns, artificial turf grass, or an approved dense vegetative ground cover.

NOT PERMITTED: Desert and no-maintenance landscape themes are not permitted Ocotillo, Saguaro Cactus, and
other plants in the cactus family (Opuntiacea = Cactacea) are prohibited. The use of Agave, Aloe and other
succulent plants may be approved on a limited basis as accent plants.
