11-1-3: INTERPRETATION:
Every provision of this title shall be construed liberally to achieve the purposes outlined in section 11-1-1 of this chapter.
   (A)   More Restrictive Requirements Apply: Whenever the requirements of this title differ from those of any statute, lawfully adopted ordinance or regulation, easement, covenant, or deed restriction, the more stringent requirement shall prevail. Thus, in accordance with state law 1 , whenever this title imposes higher standards than the county subdivision ordinance, said higher standards shall supersede the county regulations in the unincorporated territory located within the city of Aledo's subdivision jurisdiction.
   This title is not intended to abrogate any easement, covenant, deed restriction, or any other private agreement or restriction; provided, that, where the provisions of this title are more restrictive or impose higher standards or regulations than such easement, covenant, deed restriction, or other private agreement or restriction, the provisions of this title shall govern. Where the provisions of the easement, covenant, deed restriction, or private agreement or restriction impose duties and obligations more restrictive, or higher standards than the requirements of this title or the determinations of the City in approving a subdivision or in enforcing this title, and such private provisions are not inconsistent with this title or determinations thereunder, then such private provisions shall be operative and supplemental to this title and determinations made thereunder. The City does not purport to enforce any such private provisions not reflected on the plat and its supporting documents and unless there is expressed in the nature of the document and the approval process an intent to give the City enforcement rights over same. (Ord. 8/02, 9-16-2002)
