Whether ARC submissions are reviewed by the board, ARC committee, or manager, this class will provide you with tools to use when receiving, reviewing, and responding to ARC submissions. In this session, we will discuss how to set up architectural criteria for reviewing applications and creating uniform checklists for reviewing submissions. We will review examples of “good” checklists and “bad” checklists to illustrate the difference. This session will also focus on compliance with the energy efficiency and other recently enacted laws relating to construction of improvements, such as solar panels, windmills, evaporative coolers, and xeriscaping.
