ARCHITECTURAL. REVIEW COMMITTEE
Section I. Purpose. It is desirable to maintain uniform standards of
design, quality of workmanship and landscaping for the home to be built
and maintained in Brookside Meadow - Phase 1. Uniform standards of
design, quality of workmanship and landscaping protect the interests of
each owner in maintaining and increasing the value and enjoyment of
that owner's lot. It is not, however, feasible to set forth a
comprehensive list of requirements for constructing and maintaining
homes in this development. An Architectural Review Committee is,
therefore, established, the purpose of which is to review and approve
the design and quality of workmanship and landscaping for all homes to
be built in Brookside Meadows - Phase I, during the period of existence
of the Architectural Review Committee. The Architectural Review
Committee will make the determinations based on the following policy
guidelines as well as the specific restrictive covenants set forth in
the declaration.
Section 2. Policy Guidelines.

itself to quality design and constructed homes, constructed by builders
who have demonstrated their ability and willingness to design and
construct quality homes.
(b) It is of benefit to each owner that
each lot in the development be developed with a home as soon as
reasonably possible.
(c) That uniformity of construction,
styles and construction materials is desired so maintain the quality of
the development
(d) That well-landscaped lots will add
significantly to the value of each and every owner's interest in lots
in the development.
(e) That unusual fences, outbuildings and
other additions may tend to detract from the enjoyment and the value of
each owner's interest in his or her lot.
(f) That it is desirable to preserve as
much of each lot owner's view as is reasonably possible under the
circumstances.

improvements with the existing improvements, and as to the location
with respect to topography and finished grade elevations, and to avoid
plan repetitions,

may. at its sole discretion, withhold consent to any proposed work if
the Committee finds the proposed work would be inappropriate for the
particular lot or incompatible with the design standards that the
Committee intends for any of the Phases of Brookside Meadow.

solar access, impairment of the view from other lots within any of the
Phases, or other effects on the enjoyment of other lots or the common
area. disturbance of existing terrain and vegetation and any other
factor which the Committee reasonably believes to be relevant may be
taken into account by the Committee in determining whether or not to
