Summary of Deed Restrictions
Which Unit do I live in?
Click on the map below to enlarge.
Click on the Button to Lookup on County GIS. From here you scroll in on the map to the neighborhood. Look at the map and you will see an “807” in a round circle almost in the middle of the map. Our neighborhood is just slightly above that route number.
If you scroll in, you will see street names. Look for “cypress Lake” and go west to the River. South of that is S Town and River – same thing – all of it to the west and the connecting streets (Deep lagoon, etc.).. That is our neighborhood.
Scroll in on any house and right click on the house and up will pop a dialogue box that says “select this parcel”. Up will come property info across the bottom of the page. Then left click on the blue “i” on the bottom left and you will be brought to the “Property Data ” page. On the left is the “Property Description” You will note a “Unit . . . .” number will be part of the description. Note – the County dies a CYA that this is not legal, etc. But this is the simplest way to get property info and to know what DOR is applicable.
