This situation describes a restrictive covenant, which is a private agreement that limits the use or enjoyment of real property. Bucolic Homes, Inc., has included a declaration of the restriction on the development's map that is filed in the public office, and each deed contains a reference to the map. These actions ensure that the restriction is binding on all future owners of the property within the subdivision.
