Essentially, new construction and all subsequent changes, permanent or temporary, to the exterior appearance of a dwelling unit or lot are subject to review and approval by the Architectural Review Committee. The review process is not limited to major additions or alterations, such as adding a room, deck, or patio. It also includes items such as changes in color and materials. Approval is also required when an existing item is to be removed. There are a number of exceptions to this otherwise inclusive review requirement.

The Developer, the Builder Team and the Architectural Review Committee (ARC) have developed standards for many commonly requested architectural modifications. These standards provide a precise description for a specific modification which, if followed, will enable management staff to approve the application without review by the ARC. In most cases approval can be given within two days.  Any feature that is listed as "Standard" will normally be approved in this timeframe.
