City Attorney Askins stated the State of Texas over- rode cities and passed legislation permitting modular homes to be placed where they meet the square footage requirement and are not prohibited by deed restrictions. Deed restric- tions still could be drawn for the Diamond "c" subdivision and they would be binding on all properties whose owners sign but not on the properties whose owners do not sign.
