Proctor Plaza Neighborhood Association Deed Restriction Information

Property in the East and North Norhill Additions are subject to Declarations of Restrictions, which are duly recorded and filed of Record in the Real Property records of Harris County, Texas. Property may not be used in violation of these Deed Restrictions.

These Deed Restrictions provide in various sections that “All Properties shall be used for residential purposes only”; “No Lots shall be used for any type of business or commercial purpose.”; and “No noxious or offensive activity of any sort shall be permitted, nor shall anything be done on any Lot which may be or become an annoyance or nuisance.”

PPNA has the right to file a lawsuit to enforce our deed restrictions.

The Texas Property Code § 202.004(b) provides:

“A property owners' association or other representative designated by an owner of real property may initiate, defend, or intervene in litigation or an administrative proceeding affecting the enforcement of a restrictive covenant or the protection, preservation, or operation of the property covered by the dedicatory instrument."   

The Texas Property Code § 202.004(c) provides: “A court may assess civil damages for the violation of a restrictive covenant in an amount not to exceed $200 for each day of the violation.”  

Finally, the Texas Property Code § 5.006 provides:   “Attorney Fees in Breach of Restrictions Covenant Action (a) In an action based on breach of a restrictive covenant pertaining to real property, the court shall allow to a prevailing party who asserted the action reasonable attorney's fees in addition to the party's costs and claim.”

The Officers and Directors of PPNA are determined to enforce our Deed Restrictions. We are ready, willing, and able to do so through the power of persuasion or by litigation.

Any improvements, alterations, or additions to the exterior of a home require prior PPNA approval. For details on Guidelines for Home Restoration, click here, for details on Construction Approval Requirements, click here.

The East Norhill and North Norhill Addition Deed Restrictions are virtually identical. The only significant difference is that in East Norhill Addition, those houses that face Proctor Plaza Park must have a brick exterior.

Recorded copies of the deed restrictions can be obtained from the Harris County Clerk's Office. Most title companies provide copies of the applicable deed restrictions to the purchaser of any property located within either Norhill Addition.
