Approval Process

Before construction begins, you must submit the following information to our Management Agency

1. Prepare a drawing, photo and/or description of what you want to do. See By-Laws / Rules section for further details.
2. Prepare a Modification Request available from the Service Request & Forms section.
3. Allow at least 30 days to obtain committee and board written approval.
 

Condominium grounds (limited and general common elements) and buildings are owned in common by all.  The Board of Directors is charged with the responsibility to oversee this.  Most alterations to the exterior and some to the interior will require prior approval of the Board.

Decks

A request for deck/patio construction/ maintenance must first be approved by the Board of Directors prior to commencement of any work. The co-owner must utilize the Architectural Control Package when applying for written approval.

Awnings

The purpose of the Awning Installation Policy is to maintain a favorable appearance in the River Pines development through an approval process for the placement, installation and type of awning to be attached to a General Commons Area and to assure the structural integrity of the area on which the awning may be amount.

Exterior

Some additions or changes to the outside of units has already been considered.  (See "Additions Policy" and the "Landscape and External Paraphernalia Policy" ). 

Interior

Interior modification such as finishing of the basement for recreational or living purposes is allowed without board approval. The co-owner is responsible for obtaining required permits and inspections.

An Architectural Modification request must be submitted for any proposed changes to the foundation, structural / load bearing walls and roof areas. If you are unsure a modification request is required, submit one or contact the board, in writing, for further direction.
