What
are the covenants?
Covenants
are an agreement to abide by preset guidelines for your home's aesthetics
and landscaping. They are also the focus of a complex topic. We are
entwined between Neighborhood HOAs (which exercise immediate design
controls within their neighborhoods) and the Master Association (which
enforces covenants in non-HOA areas and has some global responsibilities
to the existing community) and finally, Douglas County, which has
final authority over decisions related to new development. |

Approvals:
CPN
HOA is working on the writing of an overview for the requirements
a homeowner would fulfill to obtain approval for exterior
improvements.
It
also wishes to share a description of the approval process
for new homes and development.
These
are part of our next evolution of this Web site.
Let
us know what types of information you would like to
see included on this site.

What
is the Master Declaration?
There
is a set of Covenants which govern the entire Castle Pines North
community outlined in the Master Declaration (obtain through the
Master Association business manager).
These are the design guidelines for the whole community.
Covenants
are enforced by the Neighborhood HOAs, most of which have adapted
some additional covenants that apply specifically to their neighborhood.
The
Master Association is responsible for covenants in non-HOA neighborhoods
and may become involved in resolving disputes regarding Neighborhood
HOA actions.

What
can I do to my home?
Most
exterior improvements to existing homes, including landscaping,
are subject to review by the Neighborhood HOAs' Design Review process
or the Architectural Control Committee.
The
Master Association is responsible for the Design Review process
of new custom homes. It
also submits comments regarding the design of new homes built by
the major developers in our community. Douglas County is the final
authority for these homes.

Individual
HOAs
Each Neighborhood HOA serves a specific area of neighborhoods.
They are funded by dues paid by its residents. Technically, hard copy
of each HOA's covenants should exist within reach of its members.
Contact your HOA for a copy. (See the directory of
HOAs at the top of this page) |
