What is the ARB?

The Residential Architectural Review Board, more commonly referred to as “The Residential ARB”, is composed of members appointed by the Hampton Park Board of Directors in accordance with the Covenants. This Subcommittee is “an arm of the Hampton Park Board of Directors”, and they are responsible for promulgating rules and
procedures for architectural control. The single family residential portion of Hampton Park, and for the review and approval of all exterior alterations to existing properties.
They are also charged with administering the adopted rules and procedures for Hampton Park.

Why do we have Architectural Standards and Guidelines?

The Hampton Park Protective Covenants establishes An Architectural Review
Board to oversee the aesthetic review and enforcement of all architectural aspects of construction, landscaping or any other exterior change for the entire Hampton Park development. This Board has the authority to establish criteria for architectural changes
and property maintenance and to appoint a Subcommittee to handle architectural review and control of single- family residential sites. The Residential ARB has obtained approval for the Hampton Park Architectural Standards and Guidelines from the
Hampton Park Board of Directors, which are designed to prevent excesses and abuses, while allowing individuals creative flexibility in property use. Based upon the established policies of the Residential ARB, these Standards and Guidelines will help you through the process. The Standards also provide important information on how to
prepare your application for submittal of any changes or alterations you might wish to make to you property.

Who must comply with the Standards and Guidelines?

All lot owners, including builders constructing new houses, within Hampton Park must comply with the “Standards and Guidelines for Lot Owners”. Approval of all new
construction is under the direct supervision of the developer of Hampton Park.

How does the architectural review process work?

When applications are received by the Residential ARB, they are reviewed by the Residential ARB, or its designee, for completeness and accordance with the requirements of the “Standards and Guidelines”. The Residential ARB will evaluate all proposed changes, using the “Standards and Guidelines” in effect at the time of application.
Applications conforming to the “Standards and Guidelines” will be most readily approved. Special circumstances regarding your property at your request may allow the approval of an application which might be denied at another location, or the denial of a request which might be approved elsewhere. There are no automatic approvals. The entire review process usually will take two weeks unless additional information is required to arrive at a decision.
