These results are not official as this survey was not sponsored by the board. It was an independent survey completed by homeowners of the association with 2 board members participating as residents (not as board members). The board is currently reviewing the results and will update everyone on our position regarding this issue within the next month. Thank you to all of the kind neighbors that answered their doors and gladly filled out the survey. There are 253 homes in this subdivision. As you know, the current Declaration does not allow fences. In order to change a Declaration an official vote must be taken by the board and there must be at least 67% of all homeowners agreeing to change any Declaration or By-Law. Results: Number and percentage of homes who would allow fences on ALL Century Farms lots: 71 homes or 28% Number and percentage of homes who would allow fences on perimeter lots only, the entire back yard: 22 homes or 9% Number and percentage of homes who would allow fences on perimeter lots only, the back perimeter only: 41 homes or 16% Sum of three categories above (allowing some type of fence): 134 homes or 53% Number and percentage of homes who would NOT allow fences: 93 homes or 37% Number and percentage of homes not reported: 26 homes or 10% Number who said they would allow fences but Cedar only: 19 or 14% of the 134 homes who would allow some type of fence Number who said they would allow fences but Wrought-iron only: 45 or 34% of the 134 homes Number who would allow either type: 70 or 52% of the 134 homes Just as a quick comparison, the last survey (completed in 2001) showed the following results for the first question that basically asked if you would allow fences or not: Number and percentage who would allow fences: 106 or 42% Number and percentage who would NOT allow fences: 86 or 34% Number and percentage not reporting: 61 homes or 24% As you can see, the current survey is consistent with the survey completed in 2001 but reflects the fact that more homeowners filled out the shorter, unofficial version this year.
