GLENN LAKES HOMEOWNERS ASSOCIATION, INC. Architectural Review Committee (ARC) Guidelines (Home)
To All,
Please note that there is also a defect in the way the ARC Committee
decides Arc approvals. By law the Committee must meet and make it decisions at
a meeting that is posted and open to owners. Yours, Carl Romano, Community Manager This committee shall be the governing body charged with using its best efforts to promote and ensure a high level of design, quality, harmony and conformity throughout Glenn Lakes.
The committee is established to provide a system of review for the construction or modification of all improvements within Glenn Lakes. No improvement shall be commenced, improved or altered, nor shall any grading, excavation or change of exterior color or other work, which in any way alters the exterior appearance of any house, be done without the prior approval of the committee.
