Buckingham Greene Architectural Review Process

Procedures for applying for Architectural Review Committee Approval:
Are you planning on adding to your deck, putting up a fence, doing an addition? If you are, please keep in mind that any exterior building additions, change in exterior walls, color changes, changes in grade of lot, installation of fences or decks, or other exterior construction improvements require written approval from the Maintenance Corporation. This written approval is in accordance with the Declaration of Restrictions dated August 4th, 1994. Plans and specifications, with illustrations, showing the nature, kind, shape, color, height, materials and proposed location should be submitted to the Architectural Review Committee for review and approval. The following are the procedures for securing approval:

1) Submit plans directly to the Architectural Review Committee Chair (Alex Shapero - 105 Scotts Way; email: alex.shapero@gmail.com).
2) Plans must be submitted no later than 2 months prior to any proposed alteration in order to provide ample review time.
3) The Committee will review the plans and approve, disapprove, or recommend modifications in writing within 30 days (The Committee will do its best to turn plans around as quickly as possible, however).
4) No modifications should be made until the signed plans are returned.
5) If you want some verbal advice, input, or discussion prior to submitting plans, please feel free to contact Paul Zoppi (529-7760).

While this review and approval process may seem cumbersome, it is important to remember that what affects one property in the development affects us all. Perhaps more importantly, if the Maintenance Organization needs to enforce non-compliant alterations, this must me done through the court system, and court costs will be borne by the Organization which can impact each member's annual assessment. If we are all patient and respectful of each other's property, we shouldn't have any problems with deed restrictions. Thank you for your support and cooperation.
