Subdivision covenants requiring minimum 2,000-sq-ft homes and 4-ft fence limits are:

Private zoning ordinances are regulations established by local governments to control land use and development. Unlike subdivision covenants, which are agreements among private property owners, private zoning ordinances are enforced by governmental authorities. Therefore, subdivision covenants do not fall under the category of zoning ordinances.

Involuntary covenants are agreements that bind property owners without their explicit consent, often arising from legal or inherited obligations. Subdivision covenants, on the other hand, are typically voluntary agreements made by property owners to maintain certain standards and are not imposed without consent, making them distinctly voluntary rather than involuntary.

While subdivision covenants may include guidelines for builders, they serve a broader purpose of establishing binding rules for all property owners regarding minimum home sizes and fence heights. Therefore, referring to them merely as "guidelines" undermines their enforceable nature and the legal obligations they impose on homeowners.
