    ACC Request Tips

    July 2023
    Dear Newman Village Homeowner:

    As a resident of Newman Village and member of the HOA, you are required to submit an online ACC
    Request for most exterior modifications to your home. Before doing so, please review all relevant
    sections of the following documents and their associated amendments, which may be found on the
    HOA website under Governing Documents:
    1) NV Community Design Guidelines (latest revision is #3, dated 25 March 2019)
    2) NV Architectural & Development Guidelines
    3) NV Covenants, Conditions and Restrictions

    Roughly 15% of all requests are delayed and eventually denied simply because of lack of sufficient
    information. The document most frequently missing is the lot survey.

    All requests must include a description of the project, the materials to be used, a lot survey and
    photographs of the area where modifications will take place.

    If you are working a project in stages, please submit information about only that which you are ready
    to have approved. For example, including an outdoor kitchen on a drawing when all you want to have
    approved is a pool is confusing and may cause you to have to resubmit.

    If you are resubmitting a request that was previously denied, please include a complete set of
    documents with the new request.

    The following lists for the most frequent types of requests were created to help homeowners with
    submitting needed information.

    Outdoor Kitchen:

    1. Survey of Lot.
    2. Site Plan, indicating location.
    3. Large-scale floor plan, fully dimensioned.
    4. Elevations, all sides, with finish materials and height noted.
    5. All finishes, materials, and color selections.
    6. Photographic images of the area for the proposed improvements.

    Fence:

    1. Survey of Lot.
    2. Site Plan showing location of the proposed and all existing fences. Existing fence type and
    height must be noted.
    3. Proposed fence type, details, height, material and color selections.
    4. Photographic images of the areas for the proposed improvements.
    5. The approved stain for wood fences is Cumberland Brown by Wood Defender. There are no
    other approvable colors. All iron fencing must be painted black. (CDG Rev 3, pg 64)
    Roof Replacement:

    1. Survey of Lot.
    2. Roof manufacturer's specifications for the roofing product series and color selection.
    3. Indicate whether the request includes a color change or if the color will remain the same.
    4. Color photographic images of all elevations of the existing residence and roof.
    5. Many roof replacements include gutter replacements. Indicate if that is to be included as part
    of the project, whether or not there will be a change in the color of the gutter.
    6. Indicate if there are any other auxiliary structures on the lot with the same type of roofing. If
    you are changing the color of the roof of the residence, then the color of the roof of auxiliary
    structures must also be changed at the same time.

    Solar Panels:

    1. Survey of Lot.
    2. Photographic images of all four sides of house from street level, showing the roof.
    3. Manufacturers specifications of panels and installation hardware.
    4. Overhead view indicating the proposed location of solar panels.
    5. Indicate location of auxiliary hardware (inverter, etc). Photo of that location.
    6. Auxiliary hardware located on the exterior of the home must be screened from view from the
    street 100% at the time of installation. Indicate screening method, generally evergreen plantings.
    7. View of solar panels from the street. must be minimized.

    Artificial Turf:

    2. Large-scale plan, indicating where turf is to be installed.

    4. Description/diagram of turf subsurface installation.
    5. Photographic images of the area for the proposed improvements.
    6. Artificial turf must be screened to minimize view from the street with evergreen plantings.
    Indicate screening method on plan.
    7. Lot grading, particularly in side yards, may not be changed when installing artificial turf.
    8. If installing a large amount of turf, please consider the need for additional drains to capture
    and manage the water flow which will no longer be absorbed into the ground.

    Exterior Modifications:

    1. Survey of Lot.
    2. Large-scale floor plan, fully dimensioned.
    3. Elevations, all sides, with finish materials and height noted.

    Pools:

    Prior to submitting your request online…


    1) Vet your pool contractor
    Are they a licensed contractor with the City of Frisco?
    Verify their insurance – personal and property damage liability, worker’s comp.
    Do they obtain all necessary permits?
    Check referrals – preferably from within Newman Village.
    Are they a BBB Accredited Business? How long have they been in business?
    Do they perform background and criminal history checks on employees and subcontractors?
    Watch out for scams!
    2) Discuss the need for soil stabilization with your pool contractor. This is highly recommended due to
    the expansive clay soils in Newman Village.

    3) Follow the submission requirements as described below, which have been developed to facilitate
    the smooth flow of pool/spa requests through the online ACC Request system. Your request will not be
    forwarded for approval until your submission is complete which may substantially delay the processing
    of your request.

    4) Familiarize yourself and your contractor with all Newman Village pool related CC&Rs and
    guidelines.

    As indicated in the table below, your submission must consist of the following filenames and their
    content as described:

    on top of features such as slides, grottos or jumping rocks
    should not be able to see into neighboring yards.

    sides.
    2) All exposed vertical edges of pool and any features must
    be finished when visible from public right of ways or HOA
    common areas.

    Additional considerations:
    1) All state laws, city rules and Newman Village governing documents apply.
    2) The ACC reserves the right to request additional information as required.
    3) Auxiliary structures, such as outdoor kitchens, cabanas, or pergolas may be submitted in
    separate files in the same request, or in a separate request if preferred.
    The following are additional frequent reasons for denial of a request:

    1) Items not screened from public view ( i.e, pool equipment, artificial turf)
    2) Ancillary Structures (gazebos, trellis, tool sheds, playhouses, etc.) must be “carefully designed to
    maintain the architectural integrity and aesthetic continuity of the main residence in massing,
    scale, materials, detailing and color.”
    3) Proposed materials are not allowed (e.g., Paint or stain, type/color of stone, edging materials,
    palm trees)

    After approval, please remind your contractor of the following:

    1) Construction Activity Times - The time of construction will be limited to the period from 7:00am until
    6:30pm (or City of Frisco time frames, whichever is more restrictive) Monday through Friday, and
    9:00am until 5:00pm on Saturday. Construction on Sunday is not permitted. No personnel are to remain
    at the construction site after working hours.

    2) Curb Protection – whenever heavy equipment is used during a project, your contractor should take
    measures to protect the street curb (owned by the HOA) from any damage.
