Architectural Control Committee - ACC

The Architectural Control Committee for Piney Creek (ACC) is charged with maintaining community standards on behalf of all homeowners. The governing documents for Piney Creek establish the Architectural Control Committee and empower the committee to create reasonable enforcement guidelines for the community. At closing, each homeowner signs a document stating that they have read the governing documents, understand them and agree to abide by them.

In general, any exterior alteration to a house and/or the landscape (front or back ) requires the submission of an Architectural Improvement Request Form to the Architectural Control Committee for Piney Creek (ACC).

Annually, the Architectural Control Committee is inundated with Architectural Improvement Request Forms. Unfortunately, many homeowners fail to plan in advance.  Submittals are often incomplete, lacking the necessary support documentation. Many homeowners hand their request to the Community Manager expecting it to be approved on the spot. For any number of reasons residents request that their submittal be expedited for approval within a day or two. Other homeowners conclude that because they have seen their idea at another house within Piney Creek the approval will be automatic. Please remember the following:

1. Incomplete submittals are returned to the homeowner, delaying the review process.
2. Most reviews by the ACC take 7 to 10 business days at a minimum, however, the ACC has 45 days to review your request. ACC members from each filling in Piney Creek review most requests throughout the month and do not wait for the monthly ACC meeting. Only in the case of an unusual request will members wait for the next regularly scheduled monthly meeting to discuss the situation in front of the entire ACC.
3. There are no blanket approvals for any exterior addition or alteration to your home or landscape. You must submit an Architectural Improvement Request Form for each addition or change you wish to make. If you have multiple requests, the ACC suggests that you submit a separate Architectural Improvement Request Form for each project. Submissions are judged on their individual merit for your particular house and the surrounding neighborhood.
4. Approvals require the signature of two (2) ACC members.
5. ACC meetings are held the first Wednesday of each month, 6:30 p.m. in the Piney Creek clubhouse. Homeowners are encouraged to inquire about the monthly meeting status by calling the Community Manager, 303-699-8069.
