Architectural review committees typically consist of 3-5 board members and residents. Committees review modification requests, ensure compliance with guidelines, and approve/deny requests. Committee quality affects approval timeline and consistency. Good committees maintain standards while approving reasonable requests.
Pro Tip
Research how quickly this committee typically approves requests. Slow committees can turn a 6-month renovation into a 9-month headache.
