One of the benefits of an association is the ability to create and maintain a pleasing and cohesive physical appearance within the neighborhood. And, to accomplish that goal, the Worthington Owner Association Architectural Review Committee is charged with reviewing any permanent exterior alteration or improvements. Before you begin plans for any alteration or improvement, you should first consult your Declaration of Covenants. That document will give you a more detailed understanding of the architectural review process. Please keep in mind that Architectural Review Committee Approval is required for any alteration or improvement to the exterior of your property.

Examples of improvements that need approval are:

• Roofing House
• Painting House – Stain Fence
• Fences
• Swimming Pool
• Landscaping
• Storage Buildings
• Patios
• House Additions
• Mailbox

The owner is responsible for obtaining required building permits. The owner, not the Association, Board of Directors, or Review Committee, is responsible for

1. The construction standards and specifications relating to the alteration/improvements and construction work. The owner shall hold harmless, indemnify and defend the Association and its officers, directors, and agents from and against any expenses, claims, damages, losses or other liabilities, including without limitation attorneys’ fees and cost of litigation incurred by the Association, arising out of any part of the alterations/improvements which violates any governmental law, code, ordinance, or regulations;
2. The adequacy of the plans or specifications submitted by the owner in connection with this application; and
3. The construction of the alterations/improvements.
