ARC (Architectural Review Committee) Process

 

ARC requests are required for any exterior changes or additions that homeowners want to make to their property within the Rock Springs Farm subdivision. The goal of the HOA Board and ARC Process is not to be overly restrictive or limit individual freedoms, but rather protect all Rock Springs homeowners and their property values by impartially evaluating the impact of any improvement on surrounding properties and the subdivision in general.

Examples of improvements which require a request include, but are not limited to:

Refer to the Covenants, Condition and Restrictions (CCR’s), section II, Use Restrictions of your section to figure out if you need to submit an ARC form for your project. If you are still in question, please reach out to us at theboard@rockspringshoa.com.

 

The Architectural Review process is as follows:

  1. Homeowner fills out an Architectural Review Application (available via link below).
    The application should be filled out completely, with all relevant information included as well as lot diagram, drawings, 3D renderings, photos showing type/color or materials being used, and/or manufacturers literature if applicable.
  2. The application is submitted by homeowner.
    The form may either be printed and mailed or sent via email to the address listed on the application, or may be submitted directly through the link below.
  3. The Architectural Review Committee will review the application and supporting documents.
    After the committee receives all necessary documents, they are reviewed to ensure that the request complies with all the RSF CCR’s. The committee may need to request additional information or clarification from the homeowner, so be sure your contact information is correctly entered.
  4. The committee will notify the homeowner of the approval or denial of their ARC.
    DO NOT start any contruction before approval is received. If your application is denied, any work that has begun must be halted and the area returned to its previous state at the homeowner's expense. If you are given provisional approval, construction can not be started until the provisions have been met. For large projects, the Board reserves the right to request inspections during the building process to ensure the project is adhearing to the approved proposal. If the project must be altered from initial approved application, an amendment must be submitted and approved by the Board. Please print or save your approval notice as well as submitted documents for your records.

The entire process generally takes only a few days once the committee receives all the necessary information.
