Review Process

Plan Submittal Requirements for Foothills Homes with CC&Rs

The mission of the CFA is to preserve the lifestyle we all enjoy in the Foothills. Part of that mission is enforcing zoning and development restrictions as new homes are added to existing neighborhoods and older homes are remodeled or enlarged. All property owners with CC&Rs in Areas 1 - 6 are required to submit construction plans for review and approval by the CFA Architectural Review Committee prior to starting the project. Once the CFA approves the plans and you have received all applicable building permits, your project may proceed. You must notify the Architectural Review Committee (ARC) of changes in your initial plans during the course of the project and the Committee must approve all changes.

New Construction, Additions, Exterior Remodeling and Improvements:

  1. Drawings describing the nature and extent of the proposed addition, exterior remodeling and other improvements should include:

  • Name of property owner and appropriate contact information

  • Address of property

  • Lot number

  • Current “As-Built” Survey completed by a registered surveyor locating all existing improvements including, but not limited to, house, garage, patios, ramadas, guest homes, sheds, pools, hardscape, walls, fences, and solar installations (“As-Built” survey not required if building on a vacant lot)

  • Site Plan of the entire property showing the location of the new construction, proposed exterior remodeling, any existing structures, and other improvements on the property, and the 30-foot setback lines

  • Floor Plan or Plan of the new construction, additions, exterior remodeling and any other improvements

  • Elevations showing the architectural style and clearly indicating the proposed heights above grade, finish materials, and location of any other architectural features

  • Color samples of paint or descriptions of other finish materials in the form of a plaster color chip or paint chip or a description of the materials if they are a natural material, e.g. burnt adobe or clay tile.

  • Landscape and/or Revegetation Plan

2. Plans must be submitted prior to construction commencement

3. Contact the CFA secretary for questions and submittal information

Please Note: Approval of construction plans is an architectural approval by the CFA Board only; therefore, plans are still subject to municipal zoning approval.

If you have questions or would like to arrange a place and time to drop off your plans, please contact the Architectural Review Committee.
