Most of the replies to your post were concerning CC&Rs... but codes are
important too.  Check with the department which issues building permits to see
what their restrictions are.  And don't necessarily believe what they tell you.
When I first checked here (San Bernardino county, CA) I was told the max height
for a tower was the same as for a building.  Turned out to be wrong information,
but the only way I found out was reading the relevant documents myself.  The
people who actually manned the department had no clue whatsoever.  Scary but
true.
