Open Space Committee Charter
The role of this committee is
advisory in nature. The committee has the power to advise and make
recommendations to the Board of Trustees (BOT) of Ashburn Farm. The
Committee will work in conjunction with the Architectural Review Board (ARB)
on matters regarding architectural enhancements and improvements to the
Ashburn Farm common areas as well as any other impacted committees such as
the Budget and Finance. This committee does not have the authority to make
decisions, enter into, or approve any contracts on behalf of the Ashburn
Farm Association. The Committee shall focus on the requirements, desires,
and environmental concerns of the community including any restrictions of
the governing documents.
Responsibility
The responsibility of the Open Space Committee is to advise and assist the
Board of Trustees by making recommendations for enhancements to the existing
common area and to propose solutions to open space and environmental
problems and issues identified by staff, homeowners, residents, Board of
Trustees or other committees. It is the duty of this committee to encourage
and establish programs for volunteer activities, which would provide
enjoyment and education to residents and other civic organizations to
improve the quality of the Ashburn Farm common areas.
Present the BOT with a list of potential projects for the upcoming year
within the constraints of the Annual Budget, Capitol Improvement Fund, and
the Reserve Replacement Fund. The Open Space Committee shall work with the
Budget & Finance committee to secure funding for common areas approved by
the Board of Trustees, and work with Association Staff regarding
implementation, management and maintenance of such projects.
The Open Space Committee shall assure that all projects fall within the
County requirements as well as Ashburn Farm’s Covenants and Restrictions,
ARB guidelines, and any resolutions passed by the Board of Trustees. The
Open Space committee can make recommendations to the ARB for any existing
ARB guidelines that should be updated, changed or eliminated as needed to
improve conditions in common areas.
