2 Resident Design Approval 1. A Resident Design Approval is required for any improvement to the exterior of a home or a homesite. A Resident Design Approval is also required when improvements or modifications are made to an existing Uniprop Homes model home or homesite. 2. Improvements are defined as anything added to the exterior of a home or homesite. These include such items as steps, decks, patios, sheds, porches, carports, awnings, painting or staining, add-a-rooms, sidewalks, landscaping, and all other exterior alterations. 3. All improvements must comply with Uniprop or the community standards as defined in the Community Covenants or other sections of this manual. 4. If the improvement is an established Uniprop Standard (such as a shed or wooden deck), attach the appropriate Standard form to the Resident Design Approval form. Use the Resident Design Approval form to detail specifics such as color or location on the homesite. The resident must sign the Resident Design Approval form and initial the attached standards, so there is no confusion regarding the intended improvement. 5. If no established Uniprop Standard exists for the intended improvement, the resident must submit a detailed drawing to scale including specifications of the intended improvement. The specifications should include materials and color choice. Use the Resident Design Approval form and attach any additional drawings and specifications necessary. The resident must sign the Resident Design Approval form and initial any attachments so there is no confusion regarding the intended improvement. 6. Building permits may be required by the local government, and it is the resident s responsibility to obtain these permits. A copy of the building permit must be given to the Community Manager and be kept in the resident s file. 7. Community Managers should be familiar with local building requirements, such as set back requirements, clearances between structures, and material specifications. 8. All work except painting and landscaping must be done by a licensed contractor or professional manufactured home service company. The name and license number must be noted on the Resident Design Approval form. Section III. Resident Design Approval 3-2 December 2011

5 Uniprop Greenscape Homesite Standards Policy and Procedure Any improvement or alteration to the homesite involving landscape must have prior design approval using the Resident Design Approval form. You must check with Miss Dig or the appropriate utility company before any landscape installation. There is to be NO planting in any utility easement area. There are two options for homesite landscaping: Greenscape or Xeriscape. For each community it will be defined as one or the other. At some communities both may be available. Only those species listed on the Regional Landscape Schedule as appropriate for your community will be approved. There is to be no protective or decorative fencing, concrete or stone edging, or landscaping timbers utilized. 1. Planting Areas Planting areas may be created to edge a home, walkway or shed. They will be no wider than twenty-four inches (24 ). They may contain shrubs, annuals, perennials or ground cover and will be mulched and maintained appropriately. Planting areas will be delineated by a hand dug edge, walkway or parking area. If next to sidewalk, remove soil so that sidewalk becomes retaining edge. 2. Tree Location Trees will be planted no closer than 4 to a home, sidewalk or street, with a limit of three trees per homesite. They should not be placed in such a way as to form a row or wall. Trees may not be planted in any utility easement or in any way that may limit access to or block utility lines or connection points. They should be planted at least twenty feet (20 ) apart. They must be maintained within the requirements of the Community Covenants and pruned to the requirements of the species. If help is required, information can be obtained from the Design Coordinator. Section III. Resident Design Approval 3-4 December 2011

6 Uniprop Greenscape Homesite Standards (cont d.) 3. Shrubs Shrubs may be planted around the home, to edge a walkway, screen a shed, or as decorative freestanding elements. They may not be used as a privacy hedge on any side of the homesite and should not be in any lineal fashion more than six feet (6 ) in length unless they are against the home or shed. They must be trimmed to no more than five feet (5 ) in height. 4. Annual, Perennial and Vegetable Gardens Annuals and perennials can be planted in the areas created by the planting of trees and shrubs. Flower/vegetable gardens are permitted providing they do not interfere with the adjacent homesite and do not exceed 100 sq. ft. in area. Structures to support flower/vegetable plants may be used providing as follows: a) They are appropriate for plant. b) They are no higher than three feet (3 ). c) They are removed at harvest time or the end of the growing season, whichever comes first. 5. Lawns All other areas of the homesite should be sod using appropriate grass mixture for the region. Refer to the Regional Landscape Schedule. It will be maintained within the requirements of the Community Covenants. The following Sample A, Sample B, and Sample C are examples of possible landscaping layouts. Residents are not required to duplicate these designs but to use them as a guide. Section III. Resident Design Approval 3-5 December 2011

Discuss the following drawbacks with any resident who is considering the installation of a fence: The installation of a fence is expensive.

A Resident Design Approval must be submitted by the resident and approved by the Regional Vice President before the construction and/or improvement of a fence. 2. The resident must submit a plan view drawing, to scale, indicating the location of the fence. This must be consistent with the Nevada Fence Standard. 3. The location must be in accordance with the following guidelines: a. The fence cannot be located between the front door and the street. b. The fence must be located behind the front door. c. The fence must be no closer than six feet (6 ) to any sidewalk. d. The fence should not encroach on any main utility easements, when possible. e. For homesites that are back-to-back, the fence should be no less than ten feet (10 ) from the rear homesite line to a fence or twenty feet (20 ) from fence to fence. f.
