Majestic Oaks Architectural Control

Why do we need the ACC

Everyone wants to live in a beautiful neighborhood. We want to maintain or grow our property values. To support this, Majestic Oaks is governed by several legal documents. The purpose is not to be overly invasive. It is to maintain a consistent look to our neighborhood and maintain our property values.

Governing documents

We are governed by several legal documents, two of which apply to architectural control.  The by-laws define the architectural control committee (ACC).  The deed restrictions are the standards and guidelines.

By-laws

Section 7 deed restrictions

Section 10 deed restrictions

How

The process is relatively simple and painless, and is usually completed in 30 days or less.  You fill out the required form.  It's routed to Action Property Management for review.  The form is then routed to the ACC...approve, deny, or ask for more info. 

ACC Form

When do I need to apply?

Most changes and/or repairs to the exterior of your house or your property require an application.  Generally, any time you paint, make major landscaping changes, re-roof, re-fence, or do anything that changes the look of your house or property.  It is always better to submit an application.  If routine, GTM will confer with the ACC chairman and approve on the spot.

Consequences of not-applying

This is a case where it is better to ask for permission than ask for forgiveness.  A quick call or email to GTM management will clarify if a request is needed.  If you proceed without the request, action will be taken to ensure the work is up to code/standards, and is appropriate for the neighborhood.  In some cases, legal action has been taken to enforce our by-laws and deed restrictions.  Again, save yourself time, hassle, and legal expense by getting approval before you begin the work.
