From the deed restrictions: "No building, fence, wall, driveway, swimming pool, recreational courts, or any structure regardless of size or purpose, whether attached to or detached from the main dwelling, shall be commenced, placed, or erected on any lot; nor shall any exterior addition, or alteration be made, unless plans have been approved in writing by the Committee."

 

Homeowners should familiarize themselves with the deed restrictions before submitting an application. The relevant portion of the master declaration involving architectural standards and restrictions can be found here: VDF Deed Restrictions. Further, the HOA Board has updated and recorded new Guidelines and Standards to further clarify and provide greater detail on the deed restrictions related to individual homeowner lots.

 

The ACC typically meets the first Monday of each month to review applications from homeowners. The committee comprises seven members who vote on each application. Homeowners with business before the committee are encouraged to attend meetings to provide any additional information to committee members should they have any questions.

 

To submit an application, download the form here or pick one up at Greenacre Properties located at 4131 Gunn Highway. Fill out the form completely and return it to Greenacre Properties via mail, fax, or email. All forms must be submitted to Greenacre Properties so they can be properly logged and date-stamped. You may also submit a request using the VDF Homeowner portal at g360.greenacre.com and select "Architectural Request" under the "Architectural" dropdown menu at the top of the page.

 

 

When submitting an application for exterior painting, be sure to indicate the approved scheme number on the form. Please be advised that all requests for colors that are not in the approved VDF color book will be automatically denied. Homeowners may request that the HOA board consider adding the proposed color to the VDF color book at the next scheduled or any subsequent board meeting. If approved by the board, homeowner must submit a new application with the approved color for consideration by the ACC. This can add significant time to the process, so homeowners are asked to factor in this additional time when submitting applications for non-approved colors. To view the color book, contact Dianne Pullan at (813) 748-6483 or email diannepullan@gmail.com, she will be happy to deliver it to you and discuss your options.

 

Completed applications must be submitted at least two (2) business days prior to the next scheduled meeting. For example, if the ACC meeting is on a Monday, the application must be logged in and date-stamped by Greenacre Properties by close of business on the Wednesday prior. Applications submitted after that time will be reviewed at the ACC meeting the following month.

 

It is the responsibility of the homeowner to properly fill out the form and provide the necessary paperwork. If you have any questions or need assistance contact Greenacre Properties at (813) 600-1100.
