Do I have to hire an architect?
Yes, it is required that you do hire an architect along with a builder. Plans submitted to the Design Review Committee (DRC) will be required to be stamped by a registered Architect. The two working together can ensure your home meets architectural guidelines imposed by the HOA while maintaining the character you would like for your home.
How do you enforce the architectural guidelines?
There is a Design Review Committee to review and approve all building plans. Design guidelines are controlled by the San Pedro Overlook Homeowners Association. Copies of the Design guidelines are available for your review and are included in your contract package .
How does the water service (well share) program work?
A community well share program will be organized by the developer and operated by the HOA. The well share program will ensure that all lots will be served by water at the time of purchase. Some lots will serve as host well sites; the wellheads will be located on these lots along with a pump vault designed to house necessary water storage and distribution facilities. No more than five lots will be served by each well. The water lines will run to the lot lines and it is the responsibility of the lot owner to extend the water line to the home. A meter is required and provided by the Developer at each home. This is to determine the water usage for billing purposes; monthly use fees will recover the costs of maintenance and electricity. There will also be a monthly assessment for future equipment replacement and maintenance of the wellhead and shared well system.
What is the quality, hardness of the water?
The quality of the water is tested monthly by an outside agency. This is to ensure it meets drinking standards. This region is known for it's slightly hard water and residents may choose to install a water softener at their home. This is left in the hands of the individual home site owner.
