We're doing a remodel in Garden Oaks, and we recently caught wind of some folks complaining that we are no adhering to the deed restrictions. There probably is a little confusion on the whistle blower's end as we're leveraging the original slab for our remodel / garage apartment. Either way, as I understand it, this complaint goes to the city's legal group and then they decided what to do from there. Does anybody have any experience dealing with the COH Deed Restrictions Legal Department?
Yes, I made a complaint with the COH Deed Restrictions Legal Department. Someone in our neighborhood was marketing his house as "commercial" and a potential buyer was going to build a medical office building.
Her name is Heather Cook - 832-393-6306.
She called the seller and buyer to let them know a complaint has been made and they are investigating. It scared off the buyer, but she ended up determining that the city could not pursuit actions because the signatures for our deed restrictions were never recorded.
I'd call her, ask if a complaint has been made on your property, and if so what their intentions are. You could even tell her to communicate to the complainant to call you so you can clear the air.
