Ashburn Farm Architectural Guidelines - Website Edition

Table of Contents

DISCLAIMER:   Article VI of the Ashburn Farm Association Declaration provides that no improvements, alterations, repairs, change of paint colors, excavations, changes in grade or other work, which in any way alters the exterior of any Lot or Common Area or the improvements located thereon shall be made or done without the prior written approval of the Association.  The Association has adopted the following Architectural Guidelines to provide guidance to owners when they prepare an application to improve or alter their lot or home.  While alterations which conform to the Architectural Guidelines are usually approved, each lot and application is different, so compliance with the guidelines does not guarantee approval.  Please do not make alterations to your property without first obtaining the approval of the Association as required by Declaration.

Always call 811 before starting any digging project!

 

One easy phone call to 811 starts the process to get your underground utility lines marked for free. Local One Call Center operators will ask you for the location of your digging job and route your call to affected utility companies. Your utility companies will then send a professional locator to your location to mark your lines within a few days. Once your underground lines have been marked, you will know the approximate location of your utility lines and can dig safely.   Click here for information.
