As stated in the covenants:
"For the purpose of providing an orderly development of Preston Woods, and for the purpose of maintaining conformity... the Architectural Committee's purpose is to promote good design and compatibility within the subdivision, and in its review of plans or determination of any waiver as hereinafter authorized, may take into consideration the nature and character of the proposed building or structure, the materials of which it is to be built, the availability of alternative materials, the site upon which it is proposed to be erected, and the harmony thereof with the surrounding area."
The Architectural Committee is composed of current Board Members, or a subset thereof, and any other residents of Preston Woods as nominated by a majority vote of the Board.
The fastest way to get an approval is to submit plans in writing to the Board. These plans should include a written description of the proposed improvement/addition, including placement on the lot (a diagram is preferred), a list of the types of building materials to be used in the construction, the name of the company/contractor being used, if any, and a color scheme. Be prepared to answer additional questions after the plans are submitted. Once all questions have been answered and any/all information has been provided to the Board's satisfaction, a response letter will be sent to you within 10 business days. As a general guideline, you need to allow about 2 to 4 weeks for the entire approval process.
