Architectural Control Guidelines
No building, fence, wall, stairs or other structure shall be commenced, erected or maintained upon the Properties, nor shall any deviation from the original exterior finish or color scheme, exterior addition to or change or alteration therein, such as replacement of garage door or other door with a different style door, adding a window or fireplace stacks, filling in under the units, constructing a fence of any nature or any other alteration visible from the outside, be made until the plans and specifications showing the nature, kind, shape, height, materials and location of the same shall be submitted to and approved in writing as to harmony of external design and location in relation to surrounding structures, topography by the Board of Directors of the Association or by an Architectural committee composed of three or more representatives appointed by the Board.
