This ensures that they meet the building standards outlined in the Protective Covenants. The Committee makes recommendations to the Association that promote appropriate aesthetics and protect the interests of members from unforeseen development activities.The Covenants, Bylaws and Rules that Association members need to follow when building are available to download here. If you have questions about the guidelines for building or about our approval process, please contact the Building Committee Chair.

plans to the Building Committee for approval
The Approval Process:1.Provide the Chairman of the Building committee a copy of the building plans and a copy of the site plan that shows the proposed location of the buildings and setbacks. Details of the process to follow are in this PDF.2.The Chairman then transmits the building plans to the committee members with recommendations for comments and approval or denial from the members.3.Once a majority of the members have approved or denied the application, the chairman notifies the president of the Association with the committee's recommendation.

As in any zoned city or town, you will need to get the whole range of permits – zoning, building, plumbing, electric, etc. - before you can start building. Either you or your builder will need to apply for these permits. Before you apply for your permits, make sure your project fits within the guidelines established by our Covenants and get your project approved by the Association. The first step in the permitting process is to get your zoning permit.
