Grand Lakes is a large master-planned community next to Cinco Ranch and Seven Meadows, centered on lakes. Lots that back to water are the ones where fence style is most likely to be restricted.
Who governs fences here
Grand Lakes is described as a 1,250-acre community spanning Fort Bend and Harris counties, inside Houston's extraterritorial jurisdiction. The Grand Lakes Community Association is a property owners association; a directory lists Montage Community Services as manager. Be careful when searching online: grandlakeshoa.com is a different community in Kentucky.
We did not find the association's fence rules online, so we do not state heights or materials. Homeowners have publicly petitioned over fence enforcement in the community, which is a reason to get approval in writing before you build.

With that much water, many lots back to a lake, which is where open-view metal fences are most likely to be preferred or required. Ask the association before you assume a privacy fence is allowed on a waterfront lot.
