- Once you have reviewed the community standards, it is time to apply by logging into your Spectrum Association Management account. Under the “For Homeowners” Tab, select PROPERTY IMPROVMENT REQUEST. Once you have selected an improvement type, the form will populate asking all relevant questions pertaining to the type of improvement you are applying for, including what documentation must be included.
- Once received, the community manager will confirm that the application has been received and sent to the Modifications Committee for review. If additional documentation is requested by the committee, the community manager will reach out to request any additional documents or information. An incomplete application will delay the process.
- Once the committee has reviewed the request, the following decisions can be reached. The committee will either approve the application as submitted, approve the application with stipulations, or deny the application. This process generally takes between 2 to 5 days.
- If the resident does not agree with the decision made by the committee, they can appeal and must submit a request for a hearing in writing to the community manager. The community manager will follow up with a time and setting for the hearing.
Emergency Approval and Auto-Approval
In the event of a severe weather event or emergency, the community manager has the authority to auto-approve the following if the resident uses “Like for Like” materials. Residents are still required to submit an application.
- Roof with like for like materials
- Fence with like for like materials
- Paint, same color
