Architectural Review Committee (ARC)Each homeowner who plans an improvement to the exterior of the home or elsewhere on the property must obtain ARC approval prior to beginning work on the modification. Completion of work without prior approval could lead to a requirement to remove and restore the property to its original condition. Remember: The goal of the Architectural Review Committee is to serve both you and the community by determining that your finished improvement will not violate the deed restrictions and will enhance the value of your property. To seek approval the owner must complete an application form and submit it to the ARC. The committee has 30 days to review the application and render a decision. The 30-day period begins on the date that a complete application has been received including all required documentation, not on the date the original application is signed by the owner. ARC approval is required for any changes or additions, including items such as

The guidelines followed by the ARC in making its decisions are outlined in the deed restrictions or DCCR’s. (A copy of the DCCR’s may be downloaded to read or print – click on the Deed Restrictions button on the sidebar to the left.) You may download a copy of the application form (2 pages) below. There is also a one-page list of requirements that will tell you what specific type of information the ARC needs. A more informal list of things you can do to speed your application is also included below. Application form |
