The ARC Committee reviews all requests for changes to existing homes. It ensures that any changes are in keeping with the Declaration and the Guidelines. It has the exclusive jurisdiction over modifications, additions or alterations made on or to existing Units or structures containing Units and the open space. As such, the ARC Committee approves or denies requests based on completeness and compliance with the established standards. In general, no modification can be made to any existing unit or in its open space unless the owner first submits an ARC Request for Exterior Modification Form and receives approval to proceed.
Modification Application Process
A modification application must be completed by the homeowner, accompanied by a copy of the lot survey and a copy of the contractor’s proposal or plans or any other documentation. Any alterations or additions to the exterior of your home or its grounds should be clearly indicated on the survey. If you are painting your home, whether the same color or a different color, approved paint colors must be included (in this case a lot survey is not necessary). The modification form and guidelines can be found under Documents in the header; the request form may also be downloaded here:
All completed modification applications must be submitted to Community Association Manager. Modification requests will be forwarded to the ARC Committee, which consists of four (4) persons, all of whom shall be appointed by and shall serve at the discretion of the Board of Directors. The ARC Committee will meet to process and then return all completed applications to the Community Association Manager.
Immediately following each meeting the Community Association Manager will notify the homeowner of the ARC Committee’s decision and will retain a copy of the completed modification application in each homeowner’s file.
If the modification application is denied, the homeowner may appeal the decision of the ARC Committee by resubmitting the request. The Committee’s decision regarding an Owner’s appeal shall be final.
