We keep our properties looking great and we have an Architectural Review Committee (ARC) to ensure they stay that way. Our property manager conducts periodic property inspections and issues citations to owners who do not meet ARC standards. Owners who do not remedy their problems are subject to legal action.
If you want to paint your house, change your landscaping, or otherwise change the appearance of your property, you should first ensure that your plans align with Article IX of the WLCA Declaration, WLCA ARC Rules & Regulations, and Cypress Isles ARC Guidelines.
You must submit an Architectural Review Application (ARA) and wait until it is approved before starting work. ARAs are available from the Cypress Isles website or from the WLCA office at 453 Mark Twain Blvd. The approval process shown below can take up to 30 days, and no work may commence until the ARA is approved, in writing, by both neighborhood and WLCA architectural committees or 30 days have expired and no response is received from either association, whichever comes first.
The Cypress Isles ARC meets on Mondays to review ARAs. Check the website for times and locations. All meetings are open to the public.
1. Homeowner picks up ARA packet from WLCA office and completes.
2. Homeowner returns the completed packet to the office.
3. Office staff date stamps packet and notifies the neighborhood ARC that a submitted ARA packet has been returned by the homeowner.
4. Neighborhood ARC picks up submitted ARA packet from the office.
5. Neighborhood posts advance meeting notice on website; meets quorum (minimum 2 ARC members); takes minutes and either approves or disapproves submitted ARAs.
6. Neighborhood ARC returns the approved or disapproved ARA to the WLCA office within 15 days of receipt.
7. Once returned by neighborhood ARC, office staff stamps the date returned on the ARA form.
8. Approved or disapproved ARAs from neighborhood are then submitted to the WLCA ARC to review and approve or disapprove within 15 days.
9. Once WLCA ARC has reviewed neighborhood ARAs and approves or disapproves, a letter is sent from WLCA to the homeowner of the decision. The homeowner and the homeowner’s property manager each receive a copy of the ARA with the letter. A copy of the approved or disapproved ARA is kept on file.
As a reminder, all changes to the properties within Cypress Isles are required to be approved by the ARC prior to implementation/installation of changes.
