The Evergreen Meadows Homeowners
Association Board unanimously adopted the following ARB Approval Review
Criterion on May 20, 2020, for the 2019 Architectural Guidelines, Section 4.E.
Exterior Materials, Finishes and Colors. It is not a change to the current
Guidelines, but rather a review criterion to clarify how Section 4. E.
Guidelines. will be interpreted by the ARB. In “quotes” and bold are the
Guidelines; following each is the review criterion.
“All materials and colors shall be
complementary to the environment. Wood,
stone or stucco materials are generally considered acceptable.”
“Generally” is intended as usually or
normally but not always being acceptable.
Materials could be deemed unacceptable based on the appearance not being
in harmony with the topography, which includes the surrounding environment and
existing improvements, and/or not complementing existing structures on the
property.
Exposed materials for buildings and
accessory structures will be considered if they simulate the appearance of
stone, stucco or wood in grain or texture and are of an earth or forest tone
with a muted finish.
Materials of a smooth, untextured
surface are not acceptable unless used for components such as windows and
doors, facia, soffit, narrow-width trims, and gutter systems.
Application of glass, other than for
windows and solar is discouraged unless of a low-reflective type.
Metal roofing is acceptable if the
color and finish complement the structure on which it is installed.
“Exterior colors shall be neutral
earth and forest tones.”
Earth and forest tones shall be muted
matte or flat finish.
