Below are the recorded CC&Rs (covenants) for Plat A followed by those for Forest Meadow Ranch. The copies that we have are multi-generation copies and very hard to copy. They have been scanned and put into a word processor by an OCR. The scanner has made some mistakes. We have gone through and corrected as many as we can find. If you need a completely accurate copy of these covenants, they are available from Summit County Offices in Coalville.



There are three different sets of covenants recorded for different areas within Pine/Forest Meadow Ranch. The third set is very difficult to read. We will get a fresh copy from Summit County and post it here in the near future.
