Notes

The Bradford Place recorded CC&R for Indianapolis, Marion County, Indiana requires prior written Architectural Review Board approval before any fence, wall, building, residence, or other structure is commenced, erected, maintained, improved, or altered. If the Architectural Review Board fails to approve, modify, or disapprove an application in writing within 30 days after plans and specifications are submitted according to adopted procedures, approval is deemed granted. Sight-distance rules also restrict fences, walls, hedges, shrubs, or plantings that obstruct sight lines between 2 and 6 feet above the street: on corner lots, within the triangular area formed by street property lines and a line connecting points 25 feet from the intersection of street lines, or from the intersection of extended street lines for rounded corners; the same sight-line limits apply to lots within 10 feet from the intersection of a street line with the edge of a driveway pavement or alley line. No specific fence materials, colors, heights, setbacks, or post-cap rules were found in the provided recorded passages. The bradford-place.org sources are for Bradford Place in St. Charles County, Missouri, not Indianapolis/Marion County, Indiana, and were rejected.

Article X §3-§5, Declaration of Covenants, Conditions and Restrictions of Bradford Development Corporation, dated October 24, 1977, recorded as Marion County Instrument No. 770071348; Supplemental Declaration for Phase B recorded 1979 as Book 79, Page 8536, incorporates the Declaration by reference.

Rules summarized from publicly recorded CC&Rs and Dave's hands-on experience in Bradford Place. HOAs amend rules — always confirm with your board or management company before ordering materials.

The process

How Bradford Place approval actually works.

Five steps — and the paperwork-heavy first three are on us.

  1. 1
    Pull the covenants We do this for you
    We check your HOA's actual fence rules first — height caps, materials, colors.
  2. 2
    Site sketch + spec sheet We do this for you
    Plot map with the fence line marked, plus the material/height/style page boards want to see.
  3. 3
    ARC packet submitted We do this for you
    Filed in your HOA's preferred format — you get copies of everything.
  4. 4
    Board review — 1 to 3 weeks
    Bigger neighborhoods meet monthly; complete packets usually approve on the first pass.
  5. 5
    Approved — posts go in
    Your install slot is held during review, so approval doesn't cost you the season.
