The BPO recognizes the need for some interim approvals. Possible home buyers may need to know if what they envision for their new home would fit into the BPO's concept for the neighborhood before they buy. Homeowners already in ithe neighborhood who wish to remodel also need to know if their concept will meet with approval prior to spending several thousand dollars for extensive plans. In both the above cases the ACC would require a site plan showing where the structures are to be located. Also needed is a sketch of the project showing the design. If all is in order the ACC will issue a temporary approval pending the completed constructin plans. The Board, however, reserves the right to suspend or revoke any form of an approval that is based on inaccurate or conflicting information. THE ACC MUST RECEIVE THE FINAL PLANS AND HAVE ISSUED WRITTEN APPROVAL BEFORE ANY CONSTRUCTION CAN BEGIN.

The Board and the ACC cannot stress strongly enough the need to provide supervision on construction sites to assure compliance with restrictions, ordinances, and rules. During construction iN Briarcroft (Houston) you must adhere to the following:

a. All fencing plans must be submitted for review and written approval by the ACC prior to any construction. Be advised that the Deed Restrictions provide for different policies regarding fencing depending on the location of the hme within the subdivision.

b. All approvals for iimprovements will expire 12 months after issue if construction has not commenced. An extension may be obtained if a written request confirming there have been no changes to the plans originally approved by the ACC. The BPO requests you complete your submitted projectbe completed within 18 months of the starting date. The completion of the project includes all landscaping, driveways and sidewalks. Should an extension be necessary, please advise in writing.

c. The City of Houston Noise Ordinance states that construction work can be done any day of the week, but only between the hours of 7:00a.m. and 8:00p.m. and the nosie level shall not exceed 75db(a), which would be measured by an PS Sergeant upon complaint.

d. Sidewalks must be passable at all times. When sidewalks are replaced, use the original Briarcroft (Houston) Pattern and complete construction of new sidewals immediately after the old one is removed. City of Houston Building Code Section 40-11 declares it unlawful for any person in any manner to obstruct the use by pedestrians of a sidewalk. UNDER NO CIRCUMSTANCES SHALL ANY VECHICLE BE ON ANY PART OF THE SIDEWALK.

e. Parking of construction vechicles is restricted to the side of the street the construction is taking place on. Under no circumstances should vechicles be parked in other property owner's driveways or parked in such a manner that would block said driveways. All illegal parking will be reported and the vechicles will be towed at the owner's expense. Vechicles are not to be parked on grass at any time.

f. All construction debris and other trash must be removed from the site at least once a week. No trash should be left exposed that would drift or be carried onto the adjacent property. Under no circumstances should the storm sewer inlets be used to discard trash or debris.

g. Porta-cans shall be placed as far back from the street as possible and must be cleaned and serviced on a regular basis. The right to use these temporary facilities shall end immediately upon the completion oof construction and removed immediately thereafter.

h. Building materials, trucks and other material or equipment shall not be placed upon or parked on the easement between the front of the property line and the street. City of Houston Building Code 40-7: declares unlawful any obstructions and/or encroachments in City right-of-way.
