Generally, in recorded land record systems, you find any covenants that affect your property by first checking your deed and then by examining the title in the land records for a period of at least 50 years.
You should visit the land records office where your deed is recorded. Generally, the property described in your deed is subject to the recorded version of the subdivision covenants. There should be a reference in the deed to the covenants and the staff at the land records office will help you find and obtain a copy.
Covenants are typically recorded in legal documents such as deeds, contracts, or property records. These documents outline the rights, obligations, and restrictions that apply to a property or agreement.
You should check with your local legal service.
Then, in fact, the covenants are more restrictive. When you purchased your property, you agreed to abide by the governing documents -- including the covenants. If you want to campaign to amend the covenants, you can read your governing documents and follow that process.

A covenant is a promise in a deed of real property. There are different types of covenants, such as a covenant of warranty, which is a promise to guarantee the title to the property is free of any claims against it, a promise agreeing to joint use of an easement for access to real property, or a covenant not to compete for a certain period of time, which is commonly made by a seller of a business . Covenants which run with the land, such as permanent easement of access or restrictions on use, are binding on future owners of the property. Covenants can be concurrent (mutual promises to be performed at the same time), dependent (one promise need be performed if the other party performs his/hers), or independent (a promise to be honored without reference to any other promise).

Racial covenants are legal clauses included in property deeds that restrict the sale or rental of property based on race, ethnicity, or religion. They were commonly used in the United States during the early to mid-20th century to maintain racially segregated neighborhoods. Although these covenants were declared unenforceable by the Supreme Court in 1948 and later rendered illegal by the Fair Housing Act of 1968, their legacy has contributed to ongoing issues of racial segregation and inequality in housing.
If the subdivision is subject to a Declaration of Restrictive Covenants that include a homeowners' association then your property is subject to mandatory membership.
