DEED RESTRICTIONS
Every lot in the Sunset Canyon subdivision carries a number of covenants
and restrictions right in the deed. There were 5 separate sections of
development when the subdivision was first formed, and therefore there are
minor differences in the deed restrictions for each section.
You can review the specific restrictions for your property by referring to the
CC&Rs for your section, found on the NEWS &
PUBLICATIONS page.
Are you unsure which section, and which lot number your property belongs
to? You can find a cross-reference listing between street addresses and
Lot Numbers/Section by CLICKING
HERE, or by visiting the NEWS & PUBLICATIONS
page.
