ARCHITECTURAL
CONTROL REQUEST FORM
PROCEDURES
Any Unit Owner desiring to make any change or
improvement to any common or limited common area MUST REQUEST AND OBTAIN
APPROVAL from the Board of
Managers. The procedure for this
is as follows:
1. Submit
an application to the Committee with an attached complete description of the
improvement with a drawing, photograph or catalog picture or specification,
including colors and materials as appropriate, and attached (if applicable) the
subcontractors Insurance Certificate Number and a copy of a current insurance
liability policy.
2. The
Committee will review applications and present to the Board of Managers for
final approval, disapproval, or deferred pending additional or alternative
recommendations for the improvement.
The Unit Owner will receive a written notice of the Board of Managers
action.
3. Any
changes or improvements made by a Unit Owner are the responsibility of the Unit
Owner for maintenance, repair, and/or replacement.
4. Unauthorized
changes or improvements must be removed and the area restored to original
conditions at the discretion of the Board of Managers and/or the
Committee. Removal will be at the
expense of the Unit Owner.
5. If
a resident refuses to remove a change or addition which had been installed
without prior approval of the Board of Managers, the Management Company may be
called to remove the changes or additions and any and all costs involved
including attorney fees will be charged as an assessment and collectable as any
assessment may be collected.
The purpose of requiring Board of Managers approval is
not to discourage improvements but to limit improvements to those that enhance
the value and conform to the overall aesthetic appearance of the units. THIS CONTROL SHOULD BE LOOKED UPON
AS A PROTECTION OF YOUR INVESTMENT, NOT AS A NUISANCE. The
Board of Managers, the Committee and the Association members are in favor of
improvements and hope that Unit Owners will want to personalize their homes
inside since it will ultimately add value to the entire Piper Landing.
Improvement Application Forms are available upon
request at the Management office.
A sample form is included in the Exhibits section.
