Rules Regarding Patio And Deck Aesthetics
Patios and decks are not to be used for storage and may be furnished only by typical patio-type furniture, such as tables, chairs, lounges, umbrellas, and barbeques. Patios, decks, and entryways must present a pleasant aesthetic view from the common areas.
Pre-Approved Architectural Items
The following items have been pre-approved for installation without prior Board approval. However, window, patio door and front door replacement still require submission of the Architectural Variance Request Form to notify management IN ADVANCE OF INSTALLATION and for review by the architecture committee. For installation, you may hire your own licensed contractor or one recommended by management. In some cases, a city permit may be required for installation. This includes steps by the homeowner to ensure all city requirements have been met.
