FOUR SEASONS BREEZE | DECEMBER 2019 23 ARC is the only homeowner committee required by our CC&Rs. Every time a homeowner wants to change their landscaping or exterior of their home they must apply to ARC for permission. We are dedicated to reviewing each application through a fair, reasonable, and expeditious process. We are committed to ensuring that exterior changes – including initial landscaping – meet the published guidelines and maintain the aesthetic beauty of our community. When necessary, we help homeowners work within the guidelines by providing suggestions and options to help them achieve their landscape and exterior design dreams. The ARC relies on the skills and input of various homeowners to achieve these goals. We need your help to continue to meet the needs of our homeowners. We currently have openings for a couple of new members. We are looking for members with all types of backgrounds. Our only requirement is a willingness to apply the guidelines fairly and objectively. While the time commitment is a little more than on other committees, the rewards of meeting new neighbors and sharing their excitement as they improve their home is well worth it. We meet the first and third Wednesday of every month in the RCN Conference Room at 8:30 am. If you are interested or just want more information on how you can serve your neighbors while reaping the many rewards, please contact me. Or just show up to one of our meetings. If you have any questions, please contact me. ~ Steve Cooley, (801) 815-5302, cooleyaudit@gmail.com Architectural Review Committee We are continuing to fulfill our charter to address the HOA takeover from K.
