Are you building or modifying a house, garage, addition or accessory building (such as a shed)? Are you installing or changing a deck, porch, patio, pool, spa, fence, gate, retaining wall or driveway? If so, your project must conform to the Riviera West Country Club's Architectural Guidelines to Building and other CC&R specifications. Review and approval from the Riviera West Architectural Control and Planning Committee (ACP) and payment of the required fee and/or deposit are needed before you proceed with your project. ACP approval is also needed prior to exterior painting, roofing, grading, cutting live trees or shrubs, or installing fuel tanks and solar panels.

Please contact the office if you have any questions prior to planning your project. The ACP members will be happy to speak with you and clarify the restrictions and guidelines.
