Building - Michael Kedvesh, Chair
This is a standing committee required by the Covenants.  The Committee regulates the exterior design, appearance, use, location and maintenance of the community, in such a manner as to preserve and enhance values, to maintain a harmonious relationship among structures and the natural vegetation and topography, and to provide for the proper functioning of the storm drainage system for our community.

Springmill Ponds is recognized for maintaining the quality of the community.  As a member of the community, it is important to consider the Covenants when making significant changes to the exterior of your home or lot.  The Covenants are in place to protect all of our home values and specifically to maintain a harmonious relationship with surrounding properties.

Please be considerate of your neighbors when making any of the following changes to your home:

• Fences (no chain link, consider wood pickets and wrought iron)
• Landscaping – significant changes in front or back (easements exist on your property and the committee can help guide with what can/can not be done on those easements)
• Additions – buildings, decks, arbors, porches, driveways, sidewalks, antennae, etc.
• Permanent additions not connected to the building – sports goals, pools, pet enclosures, etc.
• House color changes
• Windows, siding or roof replacement

When planning a change, please submit the following information for the Committee’s review:
Written description of the change you plan to make
If possible, scaled drawings of your plan, copy of Surveyors Plan from closing, marked to show changes
Specific measurements, materials, layout and design
Planned timeframe for work to be completed 

As a reminder, written approval from the Building Control Committee must be obtained before construction can begin. 
Please submit your plans to smp@springmillponds.com.
You can expect the Committee to follow these steps in reviewing your information:
Within 2 calendar days of receipt, contact you to acknowledge receipt of the request and explain the review process
Inform your immediate neighbors of the request
Within 15 calendar days of receipt, after reviewing your information and the pertinent Covenants, provide a written decision to you
