    Submission to Architectural Controls and Engineered Structure Layouts

    Upon completion of the Plan Review changes, we submit your plans to the land developers' for Architectural Approval. Every new home is subjected to this approval as it ensures the architectural integrity of your neighborhood. Your blueprints will also be sent to the truss and floor joist manufacturer for structural engineering. Modifications may be requested by the developer or engineers to items such as your exterior elevations, grades, side- yards, floor heights, and setbacks to better suit community guidelines or structural integrity.
