Architectural Control


The Solterra Homeowners Association created the Architectural/Landscape Review Committee to help the process in submitting requests to the Design Review Board (DRB). The Architectural/Landscape Review Committee (ALRC) is comprised of Solterra residents who review the DRB applications from homeowners in conjunction with the landscape consultant before they are submitted to the DRB. The committee recognizes that Solterra has an identifiable community character and a strong theme that will be reinforced through landscaping and outdoor spaces.
Picture
It is extremely important that most exterior improvements or modifications be approved by the Design Review Board (DRB), which is a requirement of the Declaration of Covenants, Conditions and Restrictions.  The intent of this requirement is not to hinder people from freedom of choice but to ensure their choices are in harmony with the overall appearance of the community. An attractive, harmonious community ensures that Solterra remains a desirable place in which to live and protects the homeowners’ investments over time. Failure to obtain approval on modifications may result in fines or legal action.
 
The DRB (Design Review Board) meets once a month, typically the second Monday of the month. The deadline to submit to Overlook Property Management is the second Monday of the previous month.
