The Architectural Committee has up to 30 days to review submissions, but usually completes
them in less time.

Following is a checklist for architectural submissions:
1.   Fully completed submittal form:    ACC Submittal Form
2.   Scaled site plan drawing showing location of all present and proposed structures or
improvements (buildings, fences, play sets, landscaped areas, etc.).
If the request is for a home or detached garage, the proposed location of the structure must be
staked out on the lot.
In the case of submitting a landscape plan, the site plan should show the proposed landscape plan
relative to other structures.   
If a home is being proposed, the site plan should show the driveway location, proposed surface
(asphalt or concrete), culvert size (with flared ends) and proposed culvert headwall treatment.
3.   A set of scaled architectural drawings (blueprints) with plan, elevations, and construction
details.
Include:   
# Roofing sample or brochure showing type of shingle and color
# Paint chip-body color
# Paint chip-trim color
# Exterior material samples (brick, stucco, stone, siding, etc.). Note: approximately 25% of the
front of the house must have stone, brick or stucco (some masonry material that is different from
the rest of the exterior--no all stucco homes).
4.  Application fee of $200.00 (only required for home and detached garage submittals, not for
landscape plans).
FINANCE COMMITTEE

Per the ByLaws, the Board of Directors (BOD) has the responsibility of the  keeping of corporate and financial
records of the HPA.     The BOD "shall fix, change or amend the annual dues and assessments as required to
provide the association with sufficient operating capital".  

Committee Members:
Doug Barber  and the Board of Directors
withdrawals of funds over $250.00 require the signatures of two directors.  An operating budget is maintained
and the financial statements (profit & loss, and balance sheet) are published a minimum of quarterly.  See

Financials
.  The cash assets are held in a daily cash fund for current operating expenses and in longer term
investments.  The responsibility of investment is protection of principal, while seeking a decent yield.  See
Unrecorded Rules and Regulations:  Investment of Funds Policy.   

"The intent of  these covenants is to preserve Highland Park
as an exclusive, high quality residential area of lasting
value...Property owners in Highland Park must be people who
value quality, who will respect, uphold and observe the letter,
spirit and intent of these covenants, who will insist upon their
strict enforcement, and who are willing to share equitably and
pay the expenses of legal enforcement, if necessary."
Per Paragraph 1 of the Declaration of Protective Covenants,

TO SUBMIT A FORMAL COMPLAINT:
Open, complete, and submit the    Covenant Enforcement Request Form.   

No complaint will be accepted unless submitted on the appropriate form.  

An overwhelming majority of our owners understand and support the intent of our covenants.  The
responsibility for enforcement rests solely with the individual property owners.  The ACC and BOD are the
appointed and/or elected representatives of the owners and must cooperate with and support their
decisions.  To that end, the ACC and the BOD may act to enforce the covenants.  To act in ways that are
transparent and equitable, the BOD has developed written policies that deal with enforcement of our
covenants and rules.  
See
Unrecorded Rules and Regulations:  Covenant and Rule Enforcement Policy, Collection of Fines Policy,
Alternative Resolution Policy.  

It is the intention and desire of the committee members to act in all ways fair, reasonable and with respect.  
Your Board of Directors and all committee members are volunteers.  Help and
cooperation is always greatly appreciated.  If you feel that you can contribute and
wish to volunteer for a committee, please contact that committee at the email
listed below.

SOCIAL COMMITTEE

The Social Committee is important because what this committee can accomplish will bring a sense of
"community" to our subdivision.  This committee plans HPA sponsored activities and events, such as the
Annual Potluck Picnic in the summer.  These are events which all members of the subdivision are invited
and encouraged to attend or benefit all members.   More personal activities such as Bunco, Bible study,
Mom's Club, etc. are not HPA sponsored events.  Look for news of more personal activities in the
Highland
Park Forum
.

Beaudoin, Maria Ganard, Debbie Embaugh, Monice Fritts help with events.
