For Evans Ranch Subdivision

The Architectural Control Committee (ACC) has been established to meet the objectives of the Declaration of Covenants, Conditions and Restrictions of Evans Ranch Subdivision. It is the intent of the ACC to encourage the construction of homes of good architectural design, quality and size which will enhance the livability for all residents of Evans Ranch Subdivision.

In determining whether an improvement to a lot should be approved, the ACC may take into consideration factors deemed to be appropriate by the ACC. Such factors may include, without limitation, the following:

1. The Declaration;

2. The quality of the building materials or improvements;

3. The harmony of external design of such building or improvement with existing or proposed buildings or improvements and with a design or otherwise character or aesthetics of the subdivision;

4. The location of such building or improvement upon the lot;

5. The compliance with laws. ordinances, rules and regulations of any county, state, municipal or other governmental authority.

The ACC shall approve or disapprove the plans in accordance with the following procedures:

1. Two complete sets of the following plans shall be delivered to the chairman of
the ACC at the address set forth below:

a. Site improvements/grading plans (the plan must show change from existing site plan and any clearing and designated easements);

b. Foundation plan;

c. Floor plan;

d. Exterior building elevations; and

e. Fence detail and plan.

f. Landscaping plan including plans for water sprinkler system.

2. The name of the original contractor shall be submitted to the ACC along with
a brief business history of such original contractor.

3. If the plans and original contractor are approved by the ACC, a letter of approval, including a description of qualifications or required modifications, if any, will be prepared for the counter signature of the owners. Such approval shall be dated and shall not be effective for construction commenced more than six months after such approval. If construction does not commence within six months from such
approval, owner shall not begin construction of any building or improvement of any kind unless the corresponding plans and original contractor have been resubmitted and re-approved by the ACC.

4. If the plans or original contractor are disapproved by the ACC, one set of such
plans shall be returned marked "Disapproved" or a statement shall be sent indicating disapproval of the original contractor. Disapproved plans or original contractor shall be accompanied by reasons of disapproval and corrections required for approval.

5. If the ACC fails to indicate its approval within thirty days after receipt of plans
or the history of the original contractor, it will be deemed that the ACC has approved such plans or original contractor.

6. At a minimum all new home construction must comply with the following
design requirements:

One story: 2,400 sq. ft, minimum

Multi-story: 2,700 sq. ft. minimum

Setbacks: Except for lots on the curvature of a cul-de-sac, the front setback
shall be 40', rear setback shall be 30' and the side setback shall be IO'. The setbacks for lots on the curvature of a cul-de-sac shall be
determined by the ACC. The front setback may be decreased to 30' if the topography or dimensions of the Lot are such that it is not practical or feasible to construct the house at the 40' front setback.
Such determination of the practicality or feasibility of locating the house at the 40' front setback shall be at the sole and absolute discretion of the ACC.

Masonry: The exterior walls of the house constructed on a lot shall be composed of at least 75% masonry or masonry veneer which shall not include a product similar to hardiplank. All gables and window and door openings shall be excluded from the masonry
requirement. Detached garages and out buildings, if approved by the ACC, do not have to comply with the masonry requirement.

Roofs: Roofing shall be slate, tile, tarnished metal with standing seams,
composition (dimensional, architectural or 240 lbs) or other architectural materials approved by the ACC.

Sidewalks: The sidewalks shall be constructed in accordance with the requirements prescribed by the Disability Access Office of the Department of Planning for the City of San Antonio. Sidewalks must match the contiguous lot at the property line but may be
placed anywhere in an area from the curb to 8' back of the curb.

Fences and Walls: No wall, fence or planter shall be built or maintained nearer to the
front property line than the front setback line established by the ACC. No chain link, metal, cloth or agricultural wire fence may be used, and no fence shall exceed 7" in height or be less than 5 1/2'in height for fences facing the front or side of the lot. All wooden fences visible from a street shall be constructed facing the street and without any framing visible from the street. The design and material of construction of any fencing must be submitted to and approved by the ACC prior to start of construction. Fences are not required on a lot.

Burglar and Fire Alarms: Each residence constructed on a lot shall include, as part of the
initial construction, a perimeter burglar alarm system covering all exterior doors, entries and windows and such type, number, and location of smoke detectors as required by the City of San Antonio.

House Numbering: House numbers identifying the address of each house must be
placed as close as possible to the front entry and should be illuminated so that the numbers can be easily read from the street at night. Size, color and material of the numbers must be
compatible with the design and color of the house.

Solar Collectors: No solar collector shall be installed unless such installation shall be
in harmony with the design of the residence. Solar collectors shall be installed in a location not visible from the public street in front of
the residence or on the side of the residence.

Lighting: No exterior lighting may be constructed or installed on any lot without the prior written approval of the Architectural Control Committee. The purpose of any restrictions or design guidelines on all exterior lighting in the development shall be to minimize light pollution of the night sky, to minimize the visibility of light sources from any part of the properties and to enhance the aesthetic nighttime appearance of each lot, residence and subdivision in general by promoting a consistent and harmonious scheme for exterior lighting. All exterior fixtures which may be visible from any
part of the subdivision shall be of a type and style with housings or cut off-lenses which can shield or directly focus the light source. No exposed bulb or wrap around lens "yard lights" will be permitted.

Waivers: The ACC shall have the right to waive any requirements which in their sole opinion will enhance the nature and character in the subdivision.

Effective the 22nd day of January, 1999.
