What is the ARC?

The Springs Architectural Review Committee (ARC), appointed by The Springs at High Rock Homeowners Association, Inc., will help ensure that community home construction has a consistent quality including design, facade, materials, style, and landscaping. The ARC reserves the right to reject any house plan purely on aesthetic considerations when ARC feels that it detracts from the character of the neighborhood. To maintain a "planned look" for the community and preserve its aesthetic integrity, the committee may at times place a temporary moratorium on any particular style until the community is brought back into balance.

ARC monitors the neighborhood appearance policy to enhance neighborhood pride, encourages property maintenance, and improves overall safety.

OUR APPEARANCE STANDARDS

Architectural Rules & Regulations

In private residential communities such as The Springs at High Rock (The Springs), rules and restrictions are established to ensure that development proceeds in an orderly and well planned manner. Covenants and By Laws protect the community from unattractive and irresponsible construction, enhance the overall beauty and cohesiveness of the development, maintain property values, and protect the unique natural environment of High Rock Mountain and Lake.

SHR ARC Rules Explained

Appeals

If the ARC rejects the submitted home and / or landscape plan, the HOA Member may submit amended plans to comply with the ARC comments and request in writing a hearing before the ARC. If after the ARC hearing the HOA Member disagrees with the outcome, the HOA Member may appeal to the HOA Board of Directors. The HOA Board decision will be final.

Build Review Process

Every construction (new, remodel, rebuild) and landscaping (new, revision, tree removal) must be submitted and reviewed by ARC. Start of the project does not begin until ARC approval has been granted.

Submissions for consideration for new projects are made by the SHR HOA Member, in good standing. And the process begins.

NOTE: The HOA member AND the builder upon approval complete separate forms.
