Design Review

One of the advantages you enjoy by living in a covenant-controlled community is the Design Review process. This assures all homeowners that the architectural design and quality of exterior changes and additions will be consistent with the original design.

Pre-Approved Exterior Changes

Some exterior items have been pre-approved. If you are uncertain whether your change requires approval, please contact the Design Review Committee chairperson or community manager for guidance. Others include detailed requirements and considerations. Check the management company's website and refer to the Design Guidelines and Community Covenants for information on items such as:

• Dog runs (please refer to Fence Guidelines)
• Fence and patio guidelines
• Potted plants
• Satellite dishes (refer to the Satellite Diagram approved locations)
• Storm doors

Design Request Hints

We recommend that you familiarize yourself with the architectural standards that apply to the subject of your request before making design choices. The steps listed below offer guidance with this process.

• Obtain a Design Request form from the management company website and complete all applicable blanks
• Attach additional information in the form of drawings, paint samples, and so on, to clarify the request
• Provide clear and complete information to the Design Review Committee
• If you are installing a permanent item, a maintenance indemnity is likely to be required as part of the process; this will ensure that a future owner will honor a commitment to maintain the item
