So, what is needed to submit a request?
To submit a request to the Architectural Control Committee:
- A completed signed modification request.
- A plot map marked with the requested change.
- A current photo of the requested location (i.e. backyard).
- A sample photo of the request (i.e. landscape borders).
Submit your Modification Request to your Community Manager in person or via e-mail.
For Example
You want to install a privacy screen for your patio. You envision the privacy screen made out of bricks similar to the below image.
But, the committee envisions something like the photo to the left.
Although there might not be anything wrong with the brick, it might not match the community's aesthetics.
I cannot draw, so what am I to do now?
The committee does not expect you to be an artist. They are looking for some key factors on the plot map.
- The location of the request.
- Does the request impact drainage?
- Does the request go outside the property line?
- Does the request go past the build line of the lot?
I do not have a plot map?
Plot maps were included in your closing packet from your home builder. However, if you do not have one, you can reach out to your sales agent.
My request was approved, now what?
Your Association team will reach out via e-mail to let you know your request was approved and any conditions that might coincide with the approval.
The request will stay open for 120-days. This means you must complete the request within this timeline.
If, for some reason, you do not complete your request. Please reach out to the Association team and let them know you need an extension. It is important to note that the committee will vote on the request again, and there is no guarantee the request will be approved again (although this is not common).
The Committee is asking for more information?
If you get a response that the committee is looking for more information:
- Something was either missing from the original submission.
- Or they need clarification on what was submitted.
Does that mean the process starts over?
No, work with your Association team to submit the additional information, and the committee will do their best to review it as soon as possible.
What happens if I forget to close my request?
Do not worry; your Association team will help remind you as you approach your 120-days. Owners will need to submit a photo of the completed project.
