Architectural review

Property Projects

A straightforward path for requesting a new build, exterior change, or other property project before work begins.

Start here

Make the process clear before the project starts.

Crescent Oaks covenants require written architectural review for many exterior projects. This page turns the source requirements into a simple resident process while preserving the covenants as the controlling reference.

The process

Five clear steps

These steps paraphrase the architectural-control requirements in the Crescent Oaks covenants. They do not themselves approve a project.

  1. 01

    Start before work begins

    Use this process before erecting, constructing, placing, or altering a building, or changing the topography or drainage of your property.

    Covenants, Article IV.B.1
  2. 02

    Gather the project details

    Prepare the information that applies to your project, including plans, construction quality, materials, exterior colors, design, location relative to property lines, topography, and finish-grade elevations.

    Covenants, Article IV.B.1
  3. 03

    Submit one complete request

    Use the digital request form to describe the project and attach the plans, drawings, photos, or supporting details needed for review. The form will be activated after the HOA finishes the workflow.

  4. 04

    Wait for a written decision

    Approval or disapproval must be in writing. Do not begin construction or exterior work until written approval has been issued.

    Covenants, Article IV.B.1 and VI.A
  5. 05

    Build from the approved plan

    Keep the written decision with your project records. If the approved plans change, submit the change and obtain written consent before proceeding.

    Covenants, Article IV.B.1

Projects to review

Common examples

This is a practical list, not an exhaustive one. If you are unsure whether a project needs review, start the process before committing to work.

  • Exterior remodeling or alterations that affect the home’s appearance
  • Fences, patios, storage sheds, pools, and detached structures
  • Drainage, grading, or topography changes
  • Sports or recreational equipment and certain lawn ornamentation
  • Other buildings, structures, or additions covered by the covenants
