BRISTOW MANOR ESTATES PROPOSED RULES & REGULATIONS CHANGES Homeowners, Please review the following proposed changes to the Architectural Review Board (ARB) Rules & Regulations (R&R). The Board reviewed all proposed changes. Those that were already covered by local laws were removed, others were edited for clarity. Please note - many suggestions were removed because the current R&R allows them already – as noted in the application notes that say “case-by-case basis”. The Board wishes to make clear that the ARB is reasonable in those situations. Please make your case! You will notice that a few of the proposed changes are starred (******). Those changes are contingent on the Golf Course’s agreement.  According to our HOA documents: “The Golf Course Owner is also entitled to review and approve or disapprove any exterior modifications to a Lot visible from the adjacent golf course.” (Bristow Manor Estates Information Brochure, Section IV) Please complete the survey by October 15, 2023.  If homeowners choose not to respond to this survey as to the R&R changes, that will be recorded as a “NO” vote on all items. Any changes require 12 “YES” votes in order to be considered approved. According to our HOA Documents: “Without the approval of at least Fifty-one Percent of the Mortgagees and Owners of a majority of the Lots other than the Declarant, the Association shall not, by act or omission:…change, waive or abandon any scheme or regulation or enforcement thereof, pertaining to architectural design or exterior appearance or Upkeep of the Lots or Common Area…”  (Declaration for Bristow Manor Estates, Article 14, Section 14.4(a)) Current R&R will be listed, with proposed changes in red. Strikethrough text means that text would be removed. If it is red and not struck through, it would be an addition to the R&R. The Board has approved the following process for R&R violations (taken from Declaration for Bristow Manor Estates, Article 12, Section 12.1(h) and (i)(1) and (2)): Homeowners will receive an email informing them of the violation, asking the homeowner to remedy the situation within 14 days. If the violation is not remedied, a certified letter will be sent, giving 14 more days to remedy the violation. Fines will be levied on the property - $10/day until the violation is remedied. Fines will be paid within 30 days. Fines that are not paid will incur a lien on the homeowner’s property. ONLY ONE SURVEY RESPONSE PER PROPERTY WILL BE ACCEPTED.
