The Declaration of Restrictions states that "No signs, advertisements, billboards or advertising structures of any kind may be erected or maintained on any of the lots herein restricted without the consent in writing of J.C. Nichols Company [now HA-KC], provided, however, that permission is hereby granted for the erection and maintenance of not more than one signboard on each lot, or tract as sold and conveyed, which signboard shall not be more than five (5) square feet in size and may be used for the sale and exclusive purpose of advertising for sale or lease, the lot or tract upon which it is erected."

Contact a board member or ask your neighbor. They may know who built the homes. You can also visit the Jackson County Courthouse site and search their records.

Changes to Missouri Law in 2006 eliminate any references to restrictions on sales based on race or creed that may appear in deed restrictions.
