If you own a home in Bent Grass, your neighborhood has its own recorded covenants - the Bent Grass CC&Rs (Covenants, Conditions & Restrictions). These are the rules that cover things like home appearance, landscaping, fencing, and what you can build or change on your property.
Bent Grass Metropolitan District (BGMD) is the local Metro District formed specifically for our neighborhood back in 2007, approved by El Paso County. It's the entity that carries the infrastructure debt you help pay through your mill levy, and it maintains neighborhood features like the pocket parks, open space, drainage, and entry monuments. BGMD also handles the covenant side of things for Bent Grass - including the architectural review process and covenant enforcement.
So for day-to-day neighborhood matters - submitting an architectural request, asking about a covenant, or reporting a concern ~ Bent Grass MD is your district.
The official CC&Rs, Design Guidelines, the Covenant Committee Bylaws, and the architectural request form all live on the official BGMD website, and we've linked them below.

A quick note on which covenants apply to your home: Covenants are recorded against specific platted filings of land, not against a whole neighborhood. Bent Grass has more than one filing, and the official site posts separate CC&Rs for Filing 1 and Filing 2. To be sure which set applies to your lot, look up your property's legal description on the El Paso County Assessor - it names your exact filing.
