What this form is
Norco's Municipal Code requires horse-property owners to designate a Primary Animal Keeping Area (PAKA) that stays restricted to animal keeping uses and runs with the land. Owners establishing or relocating a PAKA must sign a Condition, Covenant and Restriction that is recorded against the parcel, so the City requires a notarized signature with a full California acknowledgment before recordation.
Who needs it
Norco property owners establishing or relocating the Primary Animal Keeping Area on a horse-zoned parcel under Municipal Code Chapter 18.
Why it needs a notary
The covenant runs with the land and is recorded at the County Recorder, so it must carry a notarized California acknowledgment before the City will accept it for recordation.
