Most exterior changes — new construction, additions, paint colors, decks, roofs, tree removal, landscaping, and driveways — need ARB approval before work begins. This site tells you whether your project needs approval, who should submit it, and lets you submit and track it online.
Not sure if you need approval? Check in 30 seconds ↓Most changes to your home or lot you submit yourself — even if you hire a painter, roofer, or landscaper. Building a new home or addition? Your builder submits that, and you sign and track it here.
Typical projects: paint & stain colors, tree removal, deck repair, landscaping, driveways, fences, exterior lighting.
Building a new home, addition, or major renovation at Eagles Nest? You submit the construction application on the owner's behalf. One account covers all of your Eagles Nest jobs.
Typical projects: new homes, additions, garages,
guest homes & accessory structures, major renovations.
Own a lot here too? Use a separate homeowner account (different email) for your own home.
Two questions. New homes and additions are submitted by your builder as part of the construction application. Everything else you submit yourself — even if you hire a tradesperson to do the work.

A quick reference for the projects the ARB sees most often. For these, you submit the application yourself — even if you hire a painter, roofer, or other tradesperson to do the work. Your builder submits only when the work is part of a new home, addition, or major renovation.
This is a summary. The current Design Guidelines are the authority — check them, or ask the ARB, before you start.
Homeowners and builders request a portal account. The ARB office reviews it and emails your login, usually within 1–2 business days.
Upload photos, plans, site drawings, and color or material samples. The portal walks you through each document your project needs.
The ARB reviews submissions at its monthly meeting — plan for up to 30 days from a complete submission. You'll get an approval letter or a request for changes.
Repainting the exact existing color is treated as maintenance and doesn't need a new approval — keep a record of the color name and code. If that color has been discontinued, submit the closest match for approval before painting.
Stop and submit as soon as possible. Exterior work done without approval may have to be modified or restored to its original condition at the owner's expense, and can carry fines under the community Declaration. The ARB would rather help you get it right than penalize you — contact them right away.
The ARB reviews at its monthly meeting, so plan for up to 30 days from a complete submission. Incomplete submissions wait for the following meeting, so upload everything the checklist asks for.
Unapproved exterior changes can result in fines and a requirement to restore the original condition, as set out in the community Declaration. Approval also protects you — a documented ARB approval matters when you sell.
Yes. A builder creates one account and submits a separate application per lot, with the homeowner's name and lot number on each. One login covers every Eagles Nest job.
Review fees, construction deposits, and related requirements are set out in the current Design Guidelines. Check there or ask the ARB office.
The ARB will explain what needs to change. You can revise and resubmit, or ask to discuss it at the next meeting. Denials are almost always about specific details, not the project as a whole.
No. For a stand-alone project like painting, a new roof, landscaping, or a deck, the homeowner submits — local trades don't file ARB requests. Your builder submits only when the work is part of a new home, addition, or major renovation, where tree removal, grading, landscaping, and colors are all rolled into one construction application.
