ARCHITECTURAL CONTROL COMMITTEE (ACC):
Application Comments: Members planning most
any improvement to their property except (generally) for trees, shrubs, flower beds (and other such flora), *automatic
sprinkler systems, and *french drains are required to have advance ACC approval. This requirement extends
to alterations to existing improvements as well. An improvement is virtually anything added to the lot after the initial residence
has been completed. The ACC functions to receive, review, and decide such improvements as regards, harmony of external design,
color, location relative to surrounding structures, topography and conformity with the Development design concept. An improvements'
effect, if any, on existing drainage and elevations are of particular concern due to their potential for negative consequences
and impact on neighbors and the community as a whole. Members are advised that if there is any doubt as to the need for ACC
approval for a planned improvement, the safe thing to do is seek such approval.
*WARNING Members making
improvements without ACC approval do so entirely at their own risk. Members are advised to read and be familiar with Paragraph
4.14 and its subparagraphs, particularly 4.14.5.
Process: Members must prepare and submit duplicate
sets of detailed plans to the ACC directly (delivered or mailed to the ACC Chairperson identified below). Submissions should
be complete with specifications showing the precise and exact nature, kind, shape, height, set back, materials, color and
locations of proposed improvement. The ACC may ask for additional information and/or visit the improvement site to the extent
it determines necessary to possess an understanding of the plan sufficient to act upon. The ACC will act as expeditiously
as possible, but may take up to 60 days to reach a conclusion. The ACC's decision may be to disapprove, approve, or contingently
approve of the plan. In any event, the ACC decision will be in writing to the submitting member along with one copy of the
plan, and the other identically documented for the Associations' files. Constructions must commence within six months of the
date of the approval. Otherwise, the planned improvement must be resubmitted to the ACC.
Appeals: Decisions of the ACC are final, except that any member who is aggrieved by its decision may appeal
to the Board of Directors. A two thirds vote of the Board of Directors is necessary to override the ACC.
Enforcement: Improvements erected or commenced
without ACC action or despite and ACC decision to the contrary consititute violations. Upon written notice from the ACC, the
improvement shall be promptly removed within 15 days. If not, the Association has the right through its agents and employee's
to enter on the lot and do that necessary to remove the improvement and terminate the violation. The cost shall be assessed
against the Lot wherein the violation occurred, and a statement for the amount shall be rendered to the Member/Owner, at which
time the assessment shall become due and payable. A continuing lien upon said Lot may be enforced to insure the assessment
is ultimately paid. MOREOVER; the Association has the further right throught its agents, employee's or committee's to enter
upon and inspect an Lot at any reasonable daylight hour for the purpose of ascertaining whether any violation exist. Such
entry and inspection shall not be taken without a resolution of the ACC/Board of Directors, after reasonable notice to the
Lot owner. Neither the Association, nor any such agent or employee shall be deemed to have committed a tresspass or other
wrongful act by reason of such entry or inspection.
