Property Improvements & Alterations
Just a reminder that improvements and alterations to the homeowner's property are subject to review and approval by the Architectural Control Committee (ACC). This includes fences, walls, landscaping, buildings, attachments, storage sheds, etc. For complete details, please see your Declarations.

Please be aware that failure to obtain approval may require you to change your project after the fact in order to make it compliant. You should also be aware that the HOA's manager will inspect a property offered for resale. Improvements & alterations not on record will cast a cloud on the resale and thus may affect/delay the sale of the property. For additional information pertaining to ACC requests, please read the guideline below:
