For epoxy coating, any added decorative design must complement and blend with the selected primary coating color. Walkways and patios may also be epoxy coated or stained to match the driveway.

Flag Poles

The maximum height of the pole shall not exceed fifteen feet (15') unless a Town of Oro Valley Permit is obtained; the flag may be displayed 24 hours a day if properly illuminated during the hours of darkness. The flag should not be displayed on days when the weather is inclement. The Noise generated from cables clanging against the pole during windy days must be controlled so as not to disturb neighbors.

Pre-approved tiles are available for review in the office of the Architectural Coordinator. The Architectural Coordinator may approve the use of these tiles with the resident using an In-House Submittal.

Roof Maintenance (Lift and Relay)
The use of existing tiles is allowed when replacing the underlayment. If new tiles are needed to replace damaged tiles and the color either is complimentary, or does not closely match to the existing color they must be installed together on a deck least visible from the street. Before work may begin on the roof, a sample of the replacement tile must be reviewed onsite by a designated ARC member and upon his/her recommendation it must be approved for use by the Architectural Coordinator with the resident using an In-House Submittal. Please contact the Architectural Coordinator when the sample tile is placed outside the garage door.

Existing Cover (no footprint change)

Existing main support posts and beams may be retained if they are structurally sound.These support members may be clad with metal covers if desired. Roof slats may be replaced with new wood slats or with rectangular metal tubing slats.

Replacement roofs shall comply with all applicable provisions of Section 2.14. of the Development Standards. Pre-finished metal components must closely match or complement the body or trim color of the house. Any remaining or replacement wood surfaces must be painted to match the body or trim color of the house or the Alumawood tubing. A plot plan with dimensions, location and sketch should be attached to the In-House Submittal form.

Solar Tubes
Solar tubes may be approved by the Architectural Coordinator if all applicable criteria are met. Approval must be granted in advance of installation. The flashing must be painted to match the roof tile color. A plot plan with location(s) of solar tubes should be attached to the In-House submittal.
