While board members manage the business operations of the association, we depend on community volunteers to carry out the work of various committess whose work makes our neighborhood such a great place to live. Below is a description of committees and the tasks they complete throughout the year. Please consider volunteering as a Board Member or Committee Member to help dispers the workload of our growing community!
Architectural Control Committee (ACC)
This committee is composed of board members and volunteer members (up to five total) who review ACC submissions for property improvements through the lens of the restrictive covenants. Committee members review requests and respond within 14 days of receipt. In some cases, committee members meet with residents and examine site plans to determine if a variance to the covenants is allowable. Estimated time per year: 20+ hours
Capital Improvements
This committee provides support in researching and managing the improvements that are made to association common areas. Duties include contacting vendors, gathering quotes, and managing a project through its completion. Occasional work days may be needed to install/upgrade improvements in cases where installation is not provided. Estimated time per year: 15-30+ hours depending on level of participation
Common Areas
Members of this committee assist with various maintenance and safety issues in the common areas. Duties include participating in the bid solicitation process during open bids, responding to damage or safety issues in the commons areas and determining if a vendor needs to be called out, updating/restarting timers on fountains and lights as needed, monitor lawncare schedule and landscaping maintenance, and changing out seasonal decorations as needed.

Financial Committee
This committee works closely with the treasurer to oversee the financial accountability of the association. Duties include conducting a Reserve Fund study every three years, reviewing annual assessments each year, overseeing the bid collection process for all individual purchases that exceed $1000 per year or service agreement purchases that exceed $2500 per year, and making recommendations to the board for vendor selection based on the approved bid process.

Violations Committee
Committee members follow the established protocols for monitoring violations to the restrictive covenants.
