Dear Future River Oaks’ Homeowner:
The River Oaks Homeowners’ Association (ROA) is delighted that you have purchased a lot in the River Oaks Subdivision, and will soon join our vibrant community with the construction of a new home. The Association is strongly committed to enforcement of the subdivisions’ covenants to ensure that all of our home values are maintained, and hopefully, enhanced.
The Association’s Plan Review & Compliance Committee (PR&CC) is tasked with the responsibility to review building plans for aesthetic purposes and in conjunction with a professional review from JBA Architects, to make recommendations to the trustees for approval of plans. To help streamline the approval process, PR&CC has developed the attached “River Oaks Plan Submittal Checklist.”
To start the approval process, the following will need to be submitted to the ROA trustees:
1. A complete set of scanned construction drawings for your new home, with all the information listed on the “River Oaks Plan Submittal Checklist,” by e-mail to RiverOaksHOAHeath@gmail.com, along with a completed and signed checklist.
2. Samples of house materials (shingles, siding, etc.) as outlined in the checklist. (Trustees reserve the right to ask for physical samples over pictures as needed)
3. A check for $750 to cover plan review expenses for covenant compliance. (Your check in the amount of $750 should be made payable to the River Oaks Association, Inc.)
Once a complete submission is received by the trustees, plans will be turned over to JBA Architects for further review to ensure compliance with the appropriate phase covenants. This process and a verification of the building size, plan, and setback compliances by a civil engineer require a payment of $750. If the plans require additional reviews, further expenses could be incurred.
The Board of Trustees has ten (10) days (Phase 8 - “10 business days”) following the receipt from a lot owner of the $750, a complete electronic set of plans to include the River Oaks Plan Submittal Checklist, and appropriate building material samples as outlined in the checklist below, to conduct the review. The ten-day (10) review period begins on the date the complete set is received. Note: Partial submittals will not be accepted or deemed complete.
By his/her submission, the property owner acknowledges that he/she has received and read the Protective Covenants & Building Restrictions applicable to his/her Phase of the River Oaks subdivision, including any amendments, and states that, to the best of his/her knowledge, the plans submitted are in compliance with the requirements of those Protective Covenants & Building Restrictions.
