Submitting a Paint Application
What to you Need to Know:
- Applications can be picked up at our office or downloaded above.
- You may use any brand of exterior paint you wish.
- All exterior paint must be a flat or stain paint finish.
- Even if you intend to paint your house the same color, you must submit a form for, and obtain approval, prior to painting.
- Include 2 paint chip samples for each color you are submitting for approval. These must be a minimum of 2" x 3" each. (Provide a few samples of each if they are smaller in size.)
- Paint chip samples are required for all paint colors on the home, not just for the color(s) you are applying for. If you do not have paint samples of existing colors, a color photo is acceptable.
- Our office has a color scheme book available for viewing or home check out, as well as take-home paint chip samples. A $50 refundable deposit is required to check out the book.
- You may also visit Dunn-Edwards website to view our color schemes: https://www.dunnedwards.com/colors/archive/color-ark_pro/ahwatukee-board-of-management/2016-color-palette
- Paint applications containing colors from our color scheme book can commonly be approved the same day they are received in our office.
- It may take up to 3 weeks before your application can be reviewed at an ARC meeting, dependent upon the number of applications received. However, our policy allows up to 6 weeks for the review process to be completed.
- You will be notified by email with the date of the committee meeting when your application will be reviewed.
- You are welcome and encouraged to attend the ARC meeting when your application is discussed to ask or answer questions that may arise.
- Make sure you write legibly and complete all sections of the application including your email address, as that is how you will be notified of the committee meeting date for your application.
- The decision of your application will be emailed to you within 3 to 5 days after the committee meeting. No verbal approvals will be given.
Additional Information
- Application volume is higher in the fall and spring. Applications submitted in the summer typically have shorter processing times.
- Choose neutral, geographically appropriate based colors that will compliment the surrounding neighborhood.
- Color trends change periodically. Consider a new color to give your home a fresh look.
- You may peruse your neighborhood for homes with paint schemes that appeal to you. Should you find one you like, simply give us the address and, if we have the information on file, we will provide you the specific paint colors used.
