  • What is the architectural review process?

    The Architectural Review Committee (ARC) has certain requirements to modifications to the exterior of your home or your lot. 


    The purpose of the process is to make sure all homeowners adhere to the Covenants & Restrictions when it comes to exterior modifications. This process is very important in adhering to the original vision of the subdivision. 


    Further, by following these practices helps to make sure home values do not decline. It is a pretty straight forward process. We just ask that all homeowners go through the proper channels before making any exterior modifications.


    These modifications include, but are not limited to, installing a fence, shed, extending a driveway, planting new trees or shrubs, painting the exterior of the home, and installing additional exterior lighting.

    Outdoor Lighting.

No lighting fixture shall be installed that may become an annoyance or a nuisance to Owners or occupants of adjacent properties. No flood lights or security lights shall be allowed on any Lot. No light shall be attached to the soffits of any improvements on the Lot unless the lights are recessed.

  • Installing a swimming pool?

    No swimming pools shall be constructed, altered or maintained upon any Lot without the prior written approval of the Architectural Review Committee in accordance with Article Six hereof. Notwithstanding the foregoing, any such swimming pool must also be constructed, equipped, and maintained in accordance with the laws, ordinances, regulations, rules and standards of any city, county, and/or state authorities having jurisdiction over the Subdivision. 


    Any Owner who desires to construct a swimming pool on such Owner’s Lot shall also, prior to completion of such swimming pool, construct a fence around such swimming pool, which fence must also be approved by the Architectural Review Committee in accordance with Article Six hereof. Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, (a) above-ground pools are expressly prohibited, and

     (b) pool screen enclosures must be approved. View document here.

  • Installing additional trees and landscaping?

    Generally this is not an issue. All changes must still go through the ARC and a request must be made. Most landscaping improvements are allowed except certain items such as large palm trees.

  • Who to call about a street lamp that is out?

    Most streetlight poles have an identification number on them. Please look for that number and report the pole number to CMA at 251-960-1444.
