When Do I Have To File An Design Review Improvement Request For Approval Form with the Design Review Committee (DRC)?

Any exterior alteration or addition to your house and/or landscape requires the submission of a Design Review Committee Request for Approval Form to the Design Review Committee for Cherrywood Park Homeowners Association (DRC). This includes the front, back and side yards. Forms may be obtained by calling the property manager at 303-466-2432 or you may print out the on-line version of the form by clicking here. You may access specific guidelines concerning DRC issues (the Residential Improvement Design Guidelines) by clicking here.

How Long Does It Take The Desing Review Committee (DRC) To Review My Request?

The governing documents for Cherrywood Park Homeowners Association allow the DRC 45 Days to review your request, however, most requests are handled in 7-10 business days. The DRC does not wait for monthly meetings to review requests. Requests are generally distributed to DRC members on the same business day that they are received in the management company's office. Incomplete requests are returned to the homeowner, delaying the review process. Please read the instructions thoroughly and provide detailed information.

Homeowners who proceed with their improvement without the approval of the DRC do so at their own risk.

Who Should I Call With My Design Review Committee (DRC) Questions?

The management company is the proper office to call when you have DRC questions. Please do not attempt to contact our volunteer DRC members. Requests and questions must be routed through the property manager at 303-466-2432. Requests for Approval may be faxed to 303-466-7602.

Can I Install A Satellite Dish Or Cable TV?

Yes, you may install a satellite dish and/or cable TV per the provisions of the Telecommunications Act of 1996, as amended. Simply stated, homeowners are allowed to install a "dish" antenna that is one meter (39") or less in diameter and is designed to receive direct broadcast satellite service, including direct-to-home satellite service. Any satellite dishes and antennas over one meter (39") are not covered by the Act and are therefore still prohibited in Cherrywood Park Homeowners Association. The Act and Guidelines permit some regulation by the Association, such as the means, method and location of the dish or antenna installation, as long as no "unreasonable" delay or cost is involved. The Association can still require compliance with building codes, unobtrusive placement, painting, camouflage and other reasonable measures to ensure the safety of the installation and minimize the visual effect on the community. Residents are requested to be sensitive to their neighbors and work with the installers to choose an aesthetically pleasing location so that property values are not adversely affected. Homeowners are asked to hide coaxial cable behind brick, wood trim, gutters, downspouts, landscaping, etc. so that the least amount of cable is visible to neighbors and drive-by traffic. You do not have to submit an application to the DRC in order to install a satellite "dish" antenna that is one meter (39") or less in diameter.
