These areas are demarcated on the WestClay Development Plan. Construction of (i) any building, fence, wall, swimming pool, tennis court, patio, parking area or other structure on a lot, (ii) installation of any plantings or exterior lighting on a lot, (iii) installation or alteration of any signage on a lot, (iv) the removal of any tree having a caliper in excess of 8 inches, or (v) any other activity subject to Paragraph 20(c) of the Declaration of Covenants and Restrictions for WestClay (the "Declaration ") (all or any of the activities specified in the preceding clauses (i) - (v) being referred to herein as "Building Activity ") require the prior written approval of the WestClay Architectural Review Board (the "Review Board ") and must be undertaken in compliance with the provisions of the WestClay Village Planned Unit District Zoning Ordinance (the "Zoning Ordinance "), Paragraph 20 of the Declaration and the rules, regulations and guidelines adopted by the Review Board (the Zoning Ordinance, Paragraph 20 of the Declaration and such rules, regulations and guidelines being together referred to as the "Building Requirements "). Building Requirements generally fall into three categories: (1) those applicable only to Building Activity in the Primary Area, (2) those applicable only to Building Activity in the Secondary Area and (3) those applicable to Building Activity in all areas of WestClay. BRENWICK in its absolute discretion may elect to apply the Building Requirements applicable to the Primary Area to designated lots in the Secondary Area. In such event the Building Requirements for the Primary Area will apply to such designated lots except to the extent in conflict with the requirements of the Zoning Ordinance. THESE BUILDING REQUIREMENTS MAY BE MODIFIED BY BRENWICK OR THE REVIEW BOARD AT ANY TIME. ARCHITECTURAL REVIEW BOARD The Review Board is established pursuant to Paragraph 20 of the Declaration. The purpose of the Review Board is to regulate the design, appearance, use, location and maintenance of the land and residential buildings in WestClay in such a manner as to preserve and enhance values, maintain a harmonious relationship among structures, improvements and the natural environment, to implement the development standards and guidelines set forth in the Zoning Ordinance and to assure compliance with the architectural style and massing recommendations, building detail guidelines, listing of acceptable materials and colors, and landscape and streetscape details adopted by the Developer. LOT DEVELOPMENT PLAN A "Lot Development Plan" consists of (i) a site plan prepared and stamped by a licensed surveyor, engineer or architect, (ii) foundation plan and proposed finished floor elevations, (iii) building plans, including elevation of all facades and floor plans, (iv) material plans and specifications, (v) landscaping plan, (vi) exterior lighting plan, (vii) tree preservation plan, and (viii) all other data or information that the Review Board may request with respect to any Building Activity. No construction may commence in WestClay without the prior written approval by the Review Board of a Lot Development Plan. Lot Development Plans must be submitted in duplicate. The site plan included therewith must include each of the items specified on the Plot Plan Checklist attached as. Appendix A. Faxed copies of site plans are not acceptable. Lot Development Plans may be approved, disapproved, or approved subject to conditions. If approved, evidence of approval will be stamped on each copy of the Lot Development Plan and one copy will be returned to the Owner or builder. If disapproved, written reasons for such disapproval will be furnished the Owner or builder upon request. Lot Development Plans may be approved subject to conditions noted on the Lot Development Plan. Owners and their builders are responsible for making any changes specified in the conditional approval or otherwise taking such action as may be necessary to satisfy the conditions to approval, and, if requested by the Review Board, resubmitting the plans for further review. Failure to do so shall render invalid the approval of the Lot Development Plan. Refer to the Summary of the Design Review Process attached hereto as Appendix B for a more detailed explanation of the design approval process. All Building Activity must be undertaken in strict compliance with the approved Lot Development Plan. Substantial penalties may be incurred by an Owner for failure to so comply, including but not limited to a lienable Architectural Control Assessment in the amount of $500 per day for each day the Owner is not in compliance. Owners are responsible for the Building Activities of all contractors and subcontractors engaged by them or on their behalf. Owners, prospective purchasers and their builders are required to submit preliminary building plans to the WestClay staff architect for review prior to submitting such plans for final design review by the Review Board. Lot Development Plans should be delivered in duplicate to BRENWICK at its offices at 12775 Horseferry Road, Suite 230, Carmel, Indiana 46032. Ten to fourteen days are generally required for review of a Lot Development Plan. ZONING ORDINANCE The Zoning Ordinance includes specific Building Requirements that are not included in these Guidelines. EACH OWNER IS EXPECTED TO REVIEW CAREFULLY THE PROVISIONS OF THE ZONING ORDINANCE AND IS REQUIRED TO COMPLY IN ALL RESPECTS THEREWITH. -2- These Guidelines impose certain Building Requirements that are more stringent than required by the Zoning Ordinance. In all such circumstances, the requirements of these Guidelines shall prevail. BUILDING REQUIREMENTS APPLICABLE TO ALL LOTS Building Design The architectural design of all improvements to be located on the lot is subject to the prior approval of the Review Board. Only architectural styles designated by BRENWICK as appropriate for the area in which the lot is located will be approved. Pre - Design Meeting To expedite the approval of plans by the Review Board and to insure the architectural integrity of The Village of WestClay, each owner/builder is required to meet with the WestClay staff architect prior to commencing design of the home. The purpose of this meeting is to review the procedures for Lot Development Plan submittal, the specific design requirements of the Village of WestClay, and these Guidelines. Exterior Colors and Materials Exterior facade and roof colors and materials must be approved by the Review Board prior to commencement of construction. Chirnneys must be finished with masonry including "cultured stone" type materials or synthetic stucco. Natural materials are encouraged; aluminum and vinyl siding are not permitted. T -111 is prohibited. Windows of all vinyl construction are prohibited. An exterior colors and materials sheet is included in Design Review Form B, hereto included in Appendix B, and must be submitted to the Review Board as part of Final Design Review Application. Tree Preservation Tree preservation plans must identify each tree on the lot which has a caliper in excess of 8 inches measured at 4 to 5 feet above grade ( "Significant Tree ") and indicate which Significant Trees, if any, are proposed to be removed in connection with Building Activity. During Building Activity, adequate protective measures must be taken to minimize damage to existing trees and other vegetation to be retained in accordance with the Tree Preservation and Landscaping Plans. The builder shall make every reasonable effort to protect and retain existing trees and shrubbery not actually lying in building foundation and driveway sites and a construction activity area equal to 20 feet around the building foundation and driveway. No Significant Tree may be removed from the lot except for those shown on the Tree Preservation Plan as intended for removal and which have been approved for removal by the Review Board. -3- BRENWICK has planted large maturing shade trees ( "Street Trees ") in tree lawns abutting streets and in the common areas throughout WestClay. Street Trees will be maintained by the WestClay Owners Association, but each Owner is responsible for replacement of any Street Tree(s) damaged as a consequence of Building Activity on the Owner's lot. If the Owner fails promptly to replace a damaged Street Tree with a comparable one as directed by BRENWICK, then BRENWICK will do so and the lot will be subject to a lien for all costs and expenses incurred in connection with such replacement. The following measures shall be followed by the builder to protect existing trees to be retained on a lot, including Street Trees installed by BRENWICK: (a) Prior to construction, tree protective barriers shall be placed around all trees to be saved and their root protection area(s), to prevent damage to them. These barricades shall be installed prior to grading, construction, or other land disturbing activity. The barricades shall be constructed from material substantial enough to protect the roots, trunk, and crown on the tree, such as 2" x 4" standards and 1" x 4" rails, silt fencing or orange safety fencing, minimum 4' in height on metal posts. The barricade shall be placed at a distance from the trunk, equal to the farthest drip line of the tree and should include the total area beneath the tree's canopy. Alternative tree protection measures proposed by the builder will be considered in order to assure maximum preservation on specific lots. (b) No soil disturbance or compaction, stock piling of soil or other construction materials, vehicular traffic, or storage of heavy equipment are allowed in the areas designated for protection. (c) Root pruning shall be kept to an absolute minimum. (d) Pruning of existing trees shall be done according to accepted horticultural standards in a manner that preserves the character of the crown. (e) (0 Grading must not encroach on a tree's root zone in ways that threaten the survival of the tree. Root cuts and fills must be limited to 1/4 of the area within the drip line of the tree. Any cuts must be clean and painted promptly with a tree paint. No ropes, signs, wires, unprotected electrical installation or other device or material shall be secured or fastened around or through a tree or shrub. -4- (g) A Lot Development Plan shall not be approved prior to approval of a Tree Preservation Plan. Landscaping A landscaping plan must be included with Form D — Landscape Design Review Plan, hereto included in Appendix B, for landscape design review. Each landscaping plan will be reviewed by landscape design consultants who will recommend to the Review Board whether such plan should be approved, approved subject to conditions or disapproved. Landscaping must be installed within 30 days following substantial completion of the residence. Minimum landscaping standards apply to landscape installation in the front yard only. Minimum landscaping requirements have been established for each area in WestClay. Such minimum requirements are set forth on Appendix C. The Development Plan for WestClay contemplates that Street Trees will be planted at 30 to 40 foot intervals in tree lawns abutting all streets in WestClay. Required Street Trees shall be installed by Owner as soon as weather permits, but in any event within one hundred twenty (120) days following installation of the lot sidewalks. Such Street Trees shall be of a size and species designated by the Review Board and shall be planted at locations specified on a landscape plan to be submitted by Owner and approved by the Review Board. Ten days are required to review Landscaping plans. Sizes and names of all plant material must be specified. Landscaping Plans must be approved before any landscaping materials are installed. Driveways Installation of driveways are subject to the. following Building Requirements: (a) (b) Prior to commencing any Building Activity on the lot, a builder or owner shall excavate and install a temporary stone driveway on the lot. Such driveway shall consist of all #53 stone or a combination of fabric, #2 stone and #53 stone. The purpose of the temporary entrance is to prevent the tracking of mud and debris onto the streets. Upon completion of the construction, the temporary stone driveway shall be surfaced with a dust -free approved surface to a depth of at least 4 inches. At no time shall the driveway material be placed within the flow line of the curb. (c) The width of the finished drive shall be no more than 12 feet at the sidewalk with maximum five -foot tapers between the sidewalk and the curb. -5- (d) Under no circumstances shall a driveway's entrance be constructed or placed behind or over a street inlet casting or manhole. (e) (f) Driveways which cross sanitary or storm sewer lines must do so at a 90 degree angle. All curb cuts are to be saw cuts performed by a Brenwick approved contactor. Lot Maintenance During Building Activity Each Owner is responsible for assuring that contractors maintain the building site in a clean and orderly manner. Lots must be kept clean and mowed. Trash must not be deposited on other lots. An on -site trash dumpster is required and must be emptied on a regular basis. During periods of construction on a lot, the builder or Owner shall provide adequate physical barriers such as erosion silt fencing, straw bales, etc. along the entire street frontage of a lot to prevent mud and debris from washing from the lot onto the streets and eventually into the storm sewer system. Similar methods shall be used to prevent silt from entering and clogging drainage ways. If these measures are not in place 10 days after the start of construction on the lot, the Developer or Owners Association has the right to install required erosion measures and place a lien on the lot to recover the amount of funds expended to perform the work. Temporary seeding of all disturbed areas of a lot must be done to preserve topsoil prior to final grading and seeding. Lots may contain compacted fill materials. This soil, although it has been assumed to be properly compacted, may not contain similar engineering properties of undisturbed soils for the purpose of foundation construction. Each lot purchaser should consult the construction plans or the development plans on his/her lot prior to commencement of construction. When the basement and /or foundation of the residence is constructed, stone shall be . installed over the path of the driveway as shown on the approved building plans, and shall be level with the curb at the lot line to avoid curb break -up. The surface and sub - surface drainage system shall not be altered in any way from the conditions specified in the development plan for WestClay and in the approved building plans for the lot. Construction on the lot shall be undertaken in such a manner as to preclude debris entering or blocking the storm sewer inlets. Water service cuts shall not undermine the curbs or alter the sub - surface drainage system. Any excavated area which adjoins the curb will be backfilled with granular fill to within 10 inches of the top curb. -6- Vehicles are not to be driven across other lots and trash is not to be deposited on adjoining lots. Mud tracked onto the streets must be scraped off in a timely manner. Whenever possible, vehicles should be parked on one side of the street to insure that traffic can flow through the area smoothly. Mail Boxes All mail boxes must be of uniform size, type and color. An approved mailbox is included in the lot purchase. For installation call BRENWICK. Location of mail box must be approved by Brenwick as controlled by the United States Postal Service. Newspaper Boxes Newspaper boxes or receptacles are incorporated into the mail box. No other boxes are allowed. Fencing All fences require approval by the Review Board prior to installation. No chain link, stockade or split rail fencing is permitted. Specific requirements applicable in the Primary and Secondary Areas are set forth in subsequent sections of these Guidelines. For approval of fencing, the following must be submitted to the Review Board: • Form F - Changes to Existing Structures • plot plan • dimensions and placement of structure • photograph or brochure picture • color • vendor of fence and fence installer Exterior Lighting An exterior lighting plan must be included as part of the Lot Development Plan and must show the proposed location on the lot of the required front yard light and/or lane light and identify the type(s) and location(s) of all other exterior lighting proposed for installation on the lot. Specific requirements applicable in the Primary and Secondary Areas are set forth in subsequent sections of these Guidelines. Accessory Structures and Appurtenances Any and all improvements made to a homesite (including pools, swing sets, decks, gazebos, satellite dishes, etc.) must receive prior approval by the Review Board. Concrete pads for basketball goals must not be placed within plotted drainage, utility, or pipeline easements located on any lot. No mini barns, satellite dishes greater than 18 inches in diameter, above ground pools, window air conditioners or storage sheds will be approved. Free standing flagpoles are not permitted. -7- The following items may not be located in front yards, side yards facing a street, sidewalk or path (unless totally concealed by an approved fence or wall or visually impervious Iandscaping), nor be visibly obtrusive from nearby streets: clothes drying apparatus, air conditioner equipment, electrical or gas meters, solar panels, antennas, satellite dishes, garbage cans, bird baths or statuary (except that of museum quality which may be located in front and side yards), synthetic fauna and flora, permanent grills, in- ground swimming pools, firewood (except on porches), rock gardens and vegetable gardens, recreation and play equipment (except approved basketball goal), doghouses and dog runs, hot tubs and spas, etc. Flagpoles less than 6 feet long may be mounted at an angle to porch columns or posts and building walls. For approval of accessory structures and appurtenances, the following must be submitted to the Review Board: • Form F — Changes to Existing Structures • plot plan • dimensions and placement of structure • photograph or brochure picture • color Accessory Dwellings Accessory dwellings require the same approvals as principal dwellings and are subject to the same Building Requirements. Accessory dwellings are limited to 1,000 square feet in floor area. A detached accessory dwelling may be housed in a building containing only the dwelling or in a building which contains a garage, workshop, studio, home -based office or other similar permitted use. There may not be more than one accessory dwelling located on the lot in addition to the single family dwelling. An attached accessory dwelling must be subordinate to the principal structure characterized at minimum by a lower ridge line. The maximum building height is less than that permitted for the principal dwelling and the Zoning Ordinance should be consulted for the maximum permitted height. BUILDING REQUIREMENTS APPLICABLE IN THE SECONDARY AREA Architectural Style Residences in the Secondary Area are to be designed in an approved revival style or in such other pre -1940 architectural style as BRENWICK may from time to time approve, such as the bungalow and prairie styles. Approved revival styles include colonial, classical, tudor and gothic. BRENWICK may restrict certain approved styles to designated lots or areas. -8- While greater design flexibility will be permitted in the Secondary Area than in the Primary Area, design details should be consistent with and faithful to the basic style of the structure. In this respect, the General Design Principles applicable to the Primary Area should be adhered to in the Secondary Area. Garages To encourage the pedestrian nature of the Village of WestClay, garages should be secondary to the main house and preferably, should be located to the rear of the house. The massing of the garage should be distinguishable from the massing of the house. Garage doors should not front the street if side or rear entry is feasible on the lot. Building Materials Masonite is not permitted. Tru- divided lite windows are not required except on designated lots. Rough -sawn trim is permitted except on designated lots. BRENWICK encourages alternate construction materials and techniques compatible with custom housing and will review proposals on an individual basis. Landscaping Landscaping plans must include, in addition to the minimum landscaping requirements described on Appendix C and any required Street Trees, two flowering trees from the following list, which trees must be placed on the lot so that they are visible from the street: FLOWERING TREES Crabapple (and varieties) Hawthorne (and varieties) Aristocrat Pear Redbud Dogwood (and varieties) Magnolia Serviceberry Amur Maple If an Owner elects to plant shade trees, the species and location of such additional shade trees must be shown on the Landscaping Plan and approved by the Review Board. Trees must be at least a two inch caliper. Driveways Installation of driveways are subject to the following further building requirements: (a) The paved surface of the finished drive must be positioned so that it is no closer to any Street Tree than 5 feet. If the location of existing Street Trees does not make this feasible, then existing Street Trees shall be relocated in the tree lawn by the Owner at his/her expense to effect the required spacing. The proposed site for a relocated Street Tree must be approved by BRENWICK prior to the relocation. -10- (b) Sidewalks Driveways should generally be located no closer than 2 feet to the lot line. However, turnaround areas for side - loading garages only may be placed within 6 inches of the lot line as long as the driveway is built to grade. For such turnaround areas, it is suggested that a curb or bumper be installed to prevent tires from damaging the lawn of adjoining lots, as well as to direct storm water drainage from the adjoining lot. Turnaround areas not built at grade must be located an additional one foot away from the lot line for each vertical foot above or below grade; i.e., a one to one slope. Public sidewalks must be installed within 30 days following substantial completion of the home, or within one year following purchase of the lot, whichever occurs first, at the locations on the lot specified on the Lot Development Plan. Sidewalks along Broad Street, Horseferry Road, 131st Street, Towne Road and Meeting House Road must be five feet wide; sidewalks elsewhere in the Secondary Area must be four feet wide. All sidewalks shall otherwise comply with current City of Carmel standards. To encourage the pedestrian nature of the Village of WestClay, builders are required to construct a sidewalk from the front door to the public sidewalk. Yard Lights Except on lots fronting streets with street lights placed mid- block, each Owner must install and maintain in operable condition a lamp and lamp post of a height, type, style, color and manufacture approved by the Review Board which is equipped with a photo electric cell for automatic dusk -to -dawn illumination. An approved lamp and lamp post is included in the lot purchase. The yard light is intended to illuminate the sidewalk from the residence to the public sidewalk and shall be located in accordance with Appendix G. Power to the Iight must be provided by the electrical system of the home located on the lot. The yard light will be the maintenance responsibility of the lot owner who must replace burned out bulbs immediately upon noticing failure of the yard light to illuminate properly. Premises Identification Each home must display a uniform street address plaque on the front facade at a location approved by the Review Board. Such plaque shall be of a size, style, color and material specified by the Review Board. An approved address plaque is included in the lot purchase and may be obtained from BRENWICK. Fencing All proposed fences and walls must be located on the site. plan. The design of all walls and fences are subject to approval by the Review Board. Fences are limited to wood picket in various configurations or wrought iron (or its aluminum equivalent) not exceeding 42 inches in height, except as follows: (a) A 6 foot fence may be constructed along any rear or side lot line. (b) For purposes of affording privacy to a patio or deck area, a fence not exceeding 8 feet in height may be located in the permitted building area of the lot. Fences are to be painted; the color of paint must be approved by the Review Board. Perimeter fences must be located on line with fences on adjacent lots and must tie to adjacent fences at lot corners, subject to easements. No wall or fence may be constructed along the bank of any lake or pond, whether or not such lake or pond is located partially upon, or adjacent to, the lot. Only masonry walls not exceeding permitted fence heights may be installed. All fence and wall heights are measured from grade level. All fencing must be purchased from and installed by an approved fence installer. BUILDING REQUIREMENTS APPLICABLE IN THE PRIMARY AREA Thematic Character The Primary Area of WestClay will be unified by a common design theme reflective of the vemacular architectural styles found in an Indiana community which evolved over a period from 1810 to 1885. Residential structures are to be predominantly Federal, Greek Revival, Italianate and Gothic Revival in style, although later Victorian residential styles common in nineteenth century Indiana towns are encouraged. Structures are not required to be imitative, but must incorporate the salient features of the approved architectural style. Diversity of style and design elements is essential to avoid monotonous repetition. The design goal is to capture a moment of time which is convincingly reflective of the natural growth of a community over a 75 -year period. Illustrations of approved architectural styles can be found in the Federal (Adams), Greek Revival, Gothic Revival, Italianate, and Victorian chapters of the book "THE FIELD GUIDE TO AMERICAN HOUSES" by Virginia and Lee McAlester. Other illustrations are available in the design library maintained in the Information Center. General Design Principles 1. Buildings shall define the streetscape through the use of established setbacks along the build - to line for each block. The streetscape shall be reinforced by lines of shade trees, and may be further reinforced by walls, hedges, or fences which define front yards. 2. Buildings shall be designed to be compatible with the height and massing of adjacent buildings, as well as in relation to the human scale. 3. Buildings shall be located to front towards and relate to the street, both functionally and visually. 4. The architectural treatment of the front facade should be continued in its major features around all visibly exposed sides of a building. 5. All materials, colors, and architectural details used on the exterior of a building shall be compatible with the building's style, and with each other. A building designed of an architectural style that normally includes certain integral materials, colors, and/or details shall incorporate such into its design. Public Viewshed As used in these Guidelines, "public viewshed" means that which is reasonably visible, under average conditions, to the average observer from a street, civic space or open space. Development Plan As used in these Guidelines, a Village Development Plan means the plan prepared by BRENWICK establishing with respect to a lot the build -to and build -up lines and the massing and street orientation of buildings. Massing Building massing (height, width and depth) is controlled largely by lot size, build -to line and build -up line, but must be appropriate to the style of the building. Diversity in massing is encouraged to provide variety to the streetscape. Generally, buildings in the Primary Area will range from 2 to 3 stories in height. For detached single - family homes, building coverage is between 50% and 60 %; see Ordinance for specific requirements. The building coverage of attached residential structures in the Primary Area will generally range from 60% to 70 %. Residential structures in the Primary Area typically sit back 5 to 20 feet from the curb along an established build -to line set forth on the Village Development Plan. A percentage of buildings along the street (not exceeding 30 %) may set back from the build -to line no further than 75% of the -13- distance from the curb to the established build -to line. At the discretion of the Review Board, houses may extend forward of the build -to line by a maximum of 25% of the distance between the established build -to line and the curb. For single family detached dwellings set back from the sidewalk, balconies, bay windows and awnings may extend beyond the build -to line a maximum of 3' with ARB approval. Front porches and stoops should generally extend beyond the build -to line, but may not encroach on the sidewalk. Threshold elements composing 51% or more of the width of the dwelling shall be considered to form the major mass of the dwelling and as such, will be positioned at the build -to -line. For buildings set up to the sidewalk, balconies and upper level bay windows may encroach up to 6 feet beyond the frontage line but, if they encroach by more than 27 inches, must be at least 8 feet above sidewalk grade. Stoops may encroach beyond the frontage line, but a minimum 3 feet width of sidewalk must remain unobstructed between the stoop and the curb. Building height is regulated by a build -up line set forth in the Village Development Plan ranging from 25 to 40 feet measured from the street to the cornice line or to the roof edge line. Dissimilar cornice or roof lines among buildings on the same block is encouraged. Structures in a block may vary from the established build -up line, although no ridge line may be lower than the build -up line. See Appendix E for illustrations of applicable area and bulk regulations applicable to various lot types in the Primary Area. Roofs The pitch, shape and form of the roof are critical elements in rendering faithfully an architectural style, establishing appropriate massing and creating a pleasing streetscape. The style, color and texture of the roofing material must be appropriate to the building style and should vary among structures of the same style. Roof pitches must be consistent with the style of thc structure. Generally, roofs should be simply and symmetrically pitched and only in the configuration of gables and hips, with pitches ranging from 6:12 to 14:12. Shed roofs (which pitch in one direction) are permitted only when the ridge is attached to an exterior wall of a building, in which instance the pitch shall be between 4:12 and 14:12. Flat roofs, if necessary to the historic style of the structure, are permitted if edged by a railing or parapet. The railing pattern must be consistent with the style of the structure. Roofs should be clad in wood shingles, slate, diamond tab or other quality asphalt shingles or metal and should have an architecturally correct overhang if appropriate to the style. All vents, attic ventilators, turbines, flues and other roof penetrations must be painted to match the color of the roof or flat black except those made of metal which may be left natural. -14- Gutters and downspouts should be appropriate to the style of the structure. Gutters built of wood shall be oiled or oiled on the interior and painted on the exterior. Metal gutters and downspouts shall be painted or galvanized except copper which must be left to age naturally. Copper anodized aluminum gutters and downspouts are not permitted. Facades Facades must have a defined base or foundation, a middle or modulated wall and a top formed by a pitched roof or articulated cornice, in each instance appropriate to the building style. All buildings, except when handicapped access requirements must be accommodated, must be raised above the sidewalk grade, generally by a minimum of 30 inches. Approved facade materials include: smooth cut cedar shingles (4" -6" exposed to the weather); wood clapboard (4 " -6" exposed to the weather); wood beaded siding (7" exposed to the weather); brick; stone; stucco with smooth finish; and dryvit or equivalent with smooth finish. Exposed foundation walls must be built of brick, local fieldstone, parged block, smooth - finished poured concrete, or painted brick -form poured concrete. Foundation walls of poured concrete which are visible from a public viewshed may be exposed no more than 12 inches above grade. No concrete block may be exposed. Building facades of wood shall have all openings trimmed in wood boards 2 to 4 inch nominal width and corners trimmed in wood boards of 4 to 6 inch nominal width (except where the style requires a wider width). Doors may have wider trim. No rough sawn trim is permitted. Facades constructed of more than one material shall only change material along a horizontal line (not a vertical or diagonal line). The heaver material shall always be placed beneath the lighter material. The front and side facades of all buildings shall be of the same materials and similarly detailed except where inappropriate to the historic style of the structure. Gables atop brick walls may be finished in stucco or wood if appropriate to the historic style of the structure; otherwise, the gables should be finished in brick. Brick shall be laid and stone set in a pattern appropriate to the architectural style of the building. Butt joints between wood siding pieces may be caulked or covered, but must be painted. Entrances All entrances to a building should be defined and articulated by architectural elements such as lintels, pediments, pilasters, columns, porticoes, porches, overhangs, railings, balustrades, and other design elements appropriate to the architectural style. Any such element utilized shall be architecturally compatible with the style, materials, colors, and details of the building as a whole. -15- The location, orientation, proportion and style of doors must faithfully reflect the style of the structure. Sidelights, trim and transoms appropriate to the style must be incorporated in entries. Doors may be of wood or fiberglass with a wood veneer. "Sliding" or "patio" doors are permitted if not visible from a public viewshed. Storm doors and screen doors shall be full view without decorative trim. Double doors should not exceed 5'4" in overall width unless divided by a 4 inch minimum width post. Doors shall have glass, raised panels, or both. Storm doors and screen doors shall be finished to match the door they serve or the trim around it. Stoops shall be made of materials compatible with the architectural style of the structure. If made of wood, stoops shall be painted a color approved by the Review Board. Windows Fenestration shall be architecturally compatible with the style, materials, colors and details of the building. Window design is an integral feature of an architectural style. The number of panes, the way it opens, the trim around it and whether it is embellished with shutters must be consistent with the style of the structure. Variation in window size, configuration, spacing and number of panes can distinguish structures and contribute to a pleasing mix of compatible facades. Windows should be vertically proportioned with upper story windows vertically aligned with the location of windows and doors on the ground level, unless inconsistent with the architectural style. Windows shall be built of wood and may be clad in vinyl or metal. Glass shall be clear and free of color except where stained or art glass is appropriate to the historic style of the structure and except that frosted glass is permissible if not visible from a public viewshed. Glass blocks are not permitted. Tinted glass may be used in solariums if not visible from a public viewshed. Single glass panes shall be no larger than 20 square feet and total fenestration on the front facade shall not exceed 30% of the total surface area unless otherwise required to render faithfully the historic style of the structure. Two or more windows in the same rough opening and visible from a public viewshed shall be separated by a post a minimum of 4 inches wide. Generally, windows on street elevations should be no closer than 2 feet to the corners of the building. Shutters may be of any material approved by the Review Board. Shutters shall be incorporated on all structures the historic design of which included shutters. Where shutters are an optional feature, they shall be applied to all or none of the typical windows on any given elevation. Shutters shall be shaped, sized and proportioned to the windows they serve. Shutters shall be fully functional with all necessary hardware or shall be provided with adequate hardware to make them appear functional and shall be mounted as if hinged to the window sash. -16- Windows on elevations visible from a public viewshed shall have true divided lites or have the appearance of true divided lites. Porches If consistent with the architectural style, a detached housing structure should have a porch with a minimum depth of 8 feet which extends 40% or more along the front or side elevation, or a portico. Side porches are permitted only if appropriate to the style of the home. No screen porches are permitted beyond the build -to line. Porches may have exposed beams or rafters or a finished ceiling, as appropriate to the house style. Porticos, rather than porches, are most appropriate for the Greek Revival style. Porches shall be made of wood, or concrete faced on three sides with brick or stone. Posts, columns and balustrades shall be wood; railings shall be wood or wrought iron. Wood posts shall be no less than 6 inches nominal width or depth and chamfered at the corners. Generally balusters should not exceed 3 -1 /2 inches on center. The undercroft of wood porches visible from a public viewshed shall be skirted by wood or lattice with not greater than 1 -1/2 inch spaces between the boards. Wood porches, stoops, railings, etc. shall be painted. Wrought iron railings shall be painted black. Trim Eaves, corner boards, gable and cave boards, pediments, friezes, lintels, pilasters, sills, quoins, bargeboards, belt courses, balustrades, brackets, hood molds and other trim features are . defining characteristics of various approved architectural styles and must be included in the design of the structure. The absence of essential detail detracts from the integrity of the design and destroys the character of the facade. The entablature is a defining design element in Greek Revival architecture and should receive careful attention. With Gothic Revival designs, special attention must be given to gable -ends. No rough sawn wood may be used. Columns and pilasters shall be of an order appropriate to the architectural style of the structure. Where appropriate to the style of the structure, lintels shall extend horizontally beyond the window opening an appropriate distance. Dormers, Gables, Bays and Towers Dormers are frequently found on houses designed in the Federal style, particularly in those structures reflecting the transition from the Georgian style. The proportion of dormers is critical to the successful articulation of the roof line. Attention to window detailing of dormers is as important as that to be given the primary facade windows. Dormers shall be roofed with a symmetrical gable, hip or barrel roof -17- Gothic Revival is characterized by acute angled gables enriched with bargeboards which hang from the projecting end of a roof, cover the gables and are often carved and ornamented. Other Gothic details include swags attached to the verge of the eave, extending only part way down the rake of the gable, a triangle (peak decoration) which fills the void at the peak of the gable and gable end ventilators. Appropriate detailing of such features is essential to effect a correct design. High -style Italianate homes often included towers and bays protruding from and above the main block of the house. The location and scale of such features is important. Protruding towers are characteristic of Queen Ann structures. Piers and Arches Piers and arches shall be constructed of brick or block with a stucco finish. Masonry arches shall not be less than eight inches in thickness. Keystones in masonry arches shall be centered on the arch and have sides radial to the arch. Piers of masonry shall be no less than 12 inches in width and 8 inches in depth. Other Decorative Elements Belvederes, copulas and pergolas are permitted if appropriate to the style, well proportioned and fully detailed. Chimneys Chimneys are required on all detached single - family residences and must be located appropriately for the style of the home. Exposed surfaces of all chimneys must be brick, stone, including "cultured stone" type material or stucco, with chimney caps if appropriate. Flues must be tile or metal_ Awnings Fixed or retractable awnings are permitted if they complement a building's architectural style, materials, colors, and details; do not conceal architectural features, such as cornices, columns, pilasters, or decorative details; do not impair facade composition; and are designed as an integral part of the facade. Canvas is the preferred material, although other water - proofed fabrics may be used; metal or aluminum awnings are prohibited. Awning style, color and material are subject to approval by the Review Board. Light Fixtures Light fixtures attached to the exterior of a building shall be architecturally compatible with the style, materials, colors, and details of the building. -18- Protruding Elements All air conditioning units, HVAC systems, exhaust pipes or stacks, elevator housing, and (to the extent permitted by federal law) satellite dishes and other telecommunications receiving devices shall be screened from view from the public right -of -way and from adjacent properties by using walls, fencing, roof elements, penthouse -type screening devices, or landscaping. No satellite dishes greater than 18 inches in width are permitted on a lot and no satellite dish may be located within 6 feet of the front facade. Skylights shall be flat in profile. Skylights, solar panels, vent stacks and other roof protrusions shall not be placed on a roof facing a street nor shall they be visibly obtrusive from public viewsheds. Front Yards Front yards should be defined by fences, walls, hedges or a combination of such items. Fences should not be less than 30 inches high, normally should not exceed 42 inches in height, and should be constructed of wood pickets, wood lattice, wood board, or wrought iron. Where the yard is at a higher elevation than the sidewalk, walls are recommended. Walls may be of brick, stone or block covered with stucco and painted, if compatible with the design of the residence. Concrete walls are not permitted. The entranceway and lot corners shall be articulated with larger (taller and fatter) posts or other embellishments. Rear and Side Yards Back yards of lots fronting on lanes and lots less than 65 feet in width should be defined by the wall of the garage, fencing or other appropriate screening. Similar screening of side yards behind the build -to line is recommended for smaller lots. Walls and fences may not exceed 6 feet in height along the side yard lines and 42 inches along the rear yard line if adjacent to a lane. BRENWICK may specify location, height and style of fences adjacent to lanes. Each single- family dwelling (except accessory dwellings) should have a private yard or patio in the rear and/or side yard enclosed by a wall, fence, trellis, or lattice, evergreen hedge, vines or some combination thereof. The height of a yard enclosure may not exceed 6 feet. The height of a patio enclosure if located within the permitted building area of the lot may not exceed a height of 8 feet; if not so located, the maximum height is 6 feet. A yard or patio enclosure must be suitable to provide privacy and screen views of neighboring uses. Colors Base colors and complementary or contrast colors should be compatible with the style of the structure. All exterior colors are subject to Review Board approval. -19- Driveways Driveways are generally not permitted on lots served by lanes. Driveways may be occasionally permitted across the side yard on a corner lot if the side yard fronts on a secondary street. Driveways may also be permitted on lots having a width of not less than 65 feet if an adverse effect on the streetscape will not result. Driveways may not exceed 12 feet in width between the frontage line and garage apron, nor exceed 12 feet in width between the frontage line and the curb. Driveways may not be located front of the building facade closer than 2 feet to the lot line unless a shared driveway, nor further than 5 feet unless incorporated into a covered porte cochere. Curb cut may not exceed radius of 3 feet. A maximum angle of 60% is permitted for the driveway apron between the frontage line and the build - to line. Shared driveways on the common lot line are permitted with appropriate cross- easement. If feasible, the driveway should be located along the side yard line most distant from the driveway on the adjacent lot. Turnaround areas for side - loading garages only may be placed within 6 inches of the lot line as long as the driveway is built to grade. For such turnaround areas, it is suggested that a curb or bumper be installed to prevent tires from damaging the lawn of adjoining lots, as well as to direct storm water drainage from the adjoining lot. Turnaround areas not built at grade must be located an additional one foot away from the lot line for each vertical foot above or below grade; i.e., a one to one slope. Driveways between the curb and the rear facade of the principal structure on the lot must be of textured or scrolled concrete, preferably colored, asphalt, or brick or stone pavers. If asphalt is used, the public sidewalk and apron to the public street shall be concrete. Street Trees may not be disturbed by driveway curb cut. The Review Board may require the owner to relocate existing Street Trees at the owner's expense to accommodate installation of a driveway. See Appendix Ffor• illustrations of driveway placement. Garages Detached garages should be located in the rear yard, set back not less than 12 feet from the edge of the lane pavement when doors are facing the alley and should have the appearance of a traditional outbuilding. A 3 -foot side yard to provide access for maintenance should be maintained between the garage and the side yard line unless a maintenance easement exists on the adjoining lot. Garage doors may be directly perpendicular to or parallel with the lane, although parallel access is not feasible for lots less than 50 feet wide. Where lot size and house design are conducive to an attached garage, design considerations assume great importance. Garages should be recessed from the front facade of the house by a minimum of 20 feet and visually designed to form a secondary building volume. Generally, garage -20- doors should not be visible from the street. If visible, two car garages shall be designed with two single doors for consistency of visual proportion. All garages with more than two cars shall be turned such that the bays are not visible from the street. The garage may not be a dominant visual element of the viewshed from the street. Garage doors shall be built of wood, embossed hardboard, embossed steel or fiberglass with a wood veneer and shall have glass, raised panels, or both. Garage doors shall not exceed 8 feet in height or 9 feet in width if the garage is accessed from a street or 18 feet in width if it is accessed from a lane. Each owner of a lot abutting a lane is required to install a pole light adequate to illuminate the adjacent lane. Such light shall conform to the requirements for yard lights applicable to structures in the Secondary Area. An approved pole light is included in the lot purchase. For installation, call BRENWICK. Sidewalks Sidewalks must be installed within 30 days following substantial completion of the principal structure on the lot, or within one year following purchase of the lot, whichever first occurs. Sidewalks from the front entry of the building to the public sidewalk shall be constructed of brick, slate or bluestone. Public sidewalks in predominantly residential areas must be 5 feet in width and constructed of textured or scrolled concrete or other approved pavement materials. Asphalt is not approved for such purpose. Sidewalks must be flush to the ground and constructed in accordance with the design standards of the City of Carmel to the extent such standards are not inconsistent with the Zoning Ordinance or these Guidelines. Walls and Fences Walls and fences shall be architecturally compatible with the style, materials, and colors of the principal building on the same lot. Stone walls or brick walls with a stone or cast stone cap, wood or wrought iron fences, masonry or stucco walls, and stone piers are encouraged. Solid wood fences are permitted in rear and side yards only Fence locations and patterns are subject to the approval of the Review Board. Gates in fences shall be built of the fence material. Gates in garden walls may be of wood or wrought iron. Retaining walls not visible from a public viewshed may be constructed of brick, stone, concrete or wood. -21- Fences along streets and paths on neighboring lots should be of different designs. Fences built of wood shall be stained or painted a color approved by the Review Board. Fences built of wrought iron shall be painted black. Brick walls shall be no less than 8 inches wide and capped. The cap shall overhang the wall no less than 2 inches on each side. Garden walls of brick or stone shall be capped in a brick rowlock course of brick, cut brick or dressed coping stone 1-1/2 to 3 inches thick. Further specifications with respect to walls and fences are set forth above under the captions "Front Yards" and "Rear and Side Yards ". Decks Decks should generally be confined to the rear yard, should be visually unobtrusive from public viewsheds and should be scaled proportionately to the principal structure and the lot. The undercroft of decks visible from a public viewshed should be skirted by wood or lattice with not greater than 1-1/2 inch spaces between the boards. Decks and stairs may be built of pressure treated wood. If visible from a public viewshed, they must be painted with the exception of the floor and the treads, which may be painted, stained or left unfinished. Flower Boxes Flower boxes on windows and railings are encouraged and shall be made of wood or wrought iron. All designs must be approved by the ARB. Premises Identification Each residential structure shall display a uniform street address plaque on the front facade at a location approved by the Review Board. Such plaque shall be of a size, style, color and material specified by the Review Board. An approved address plaque is included in the lot purchase and may be obtained from BRENWICK. Sign age All signage is subject to the approval of the Review Board and shall comply with the WestClay Sign Regulations. Home -based Offices. A home -based office is permitted on a residential lot located in the Village Center or the Home -based Office Area if the office and the intended use thereof is approved by the Review Board and is (a) located in or attached to a single family detached dwelling or (b) located in a detached accessory building or garage typically associated with such a dwelling. Detached home -based offices require the same approvals as principal dwellings and are subject to the same Building Requirements. A home -based office may not exceed 1,000 square feet or 30 percent of the total square footage of the dwelling if attached to or incorporated in the dwelling. If located in an accessory building, the home -based office may not exceed 1,000 square feet. All exterior aspects of a home -based office must be consistent with the residential character of the neighborhood where located. Medical, dental and real estate offices are not permitted as home -based offices, nor is the retail sale of goods permitted from such an office. In addition to the family occupying the dwelling to which the use of the home -based office is accessory, there may not be more than three outside employees in the home -based office. Employees and clients of a home -based office operation must park in on- street curbside parking spaces or in a rear or side yard parking area and may not park in the driveway forward of the front facade of the dwelling. The Lot Development Plan must show all proposed on -site parking for a home -based office. One wall - mounted sign with a sign area not exceeding 3 square feet is permitted if approved by the Review Board and a sign permit is obtained from the City of Carmel.

This document contains a general overview of the design review process as well as a step -by -step outline of each review phase. All necessary forms for completing a design review submittal are also included. In most cases your architectldesigner or building contractor will be responsible for submitting these forms. Written notification of the results and findings of the review process will be provided to both the owner and the building contractor or architect/designer. The purpose of such a thorough and meticulous approach to traditional design is to assure that it is appropriate and harmonious. The intent is to ensure that our efforts result in homes, businesses, streets, and a neighborhood that will be enjoyed by all who live, work and visit The Village of WestClay. 1 WESTCLAY ARCHITECTURAL REVIEW BOARD DESIGN REVIEW PROCESS FOR RESIDENTIAL CONSTRUCTION Table of Contents SECTION I: Mission, Function, Powers and Duties Mission and Function 3 Powers and Duties 4 Scope of Review 4 SECTION II: Design Review - General Information Review of Design Submissions 5 Use and Approval of Design Professionals 5 Design Variances 5 Additional Meetings with the Review Board 5 SECTION III: Design Review Process Design Orientation Meeting 6 Preliminary Design Review 6 Final Design Review 7 Stakeout Review 7 Landscape Design Review 7 Changes to Approved Plans 8 Alterations to Existing Structures and Lot Improvements 8 SECTION IV: Design Review Requirements Preliminary Design Review Requirements 9 & 10 Final Design Review Requirements 11 & 12 Landscape Design Review Requirements 13 SECTION V: Design Review Forms Form A - Preliminary Design Review Application Forrn B - Final Design Review Application Form C - Request for Stakeout Review Form D - Landscape Design Review Application Form E - Changes to Approved Design Form F - Changes to Existing Structures 2 SECTION T MISSION, FUNCTION, POWERS & DUTIES 1. Mission and Function The Village of WestClay is built in the great tradition of architectural designs found in Indiana in the 19th Century. Over time memorable streets and civic spaces are being built within The Village of WestClay. Framing and lining these streets and spaces is a collection of houses designed and constructed according to the principles of traditional architecture. The end result will be neighborhoods, streetscapes, and houses that are beautiful, timeless, and built for today as well as generations to come. The purpose of the architectural review process at The Village of WestClay is to rekindle an appreciation for an architecture and building philosophy rarely practiced today. Reestablishing the building tradition of 19th Century architecture will facilitate the development of an endearing and enduring place. Years from now, builders, architects and homeowners will recognize the tradition established in this neighborhood, and enthusiastically and capably continue to build on these traditions. Brenwick TND Communities, LLC developed the WestClay Village PUD Ordinance, the Village of WestClay Building Guidelines and Requirements for Residential Construction, the Declaration of Covenants and Restrictions for The Village of WestClay and all supplements and amendments thereto to be used as the design guidelines for all new structures and subsequent alterations to existing structures within The Village of WestClay. Additional lot specific guidelines are contained in the supplements for each neighborhood. All property owners and applicants for design review approval are advised to use these documents and/or appropriate historic precedents as tools and resources for the site planning, design, detailing and Landscaping of any new structures or alterations to existing structures. Many different individuals design and build the houses in The Village of WestClay. In order to work together to create a community, the design of each structure should respond to the character of the street, park or common space it faces. This calls for a coordinated approach to the design of the structures so they are harmonious with each other and form civic spaces and streetscapes of the highest quality. In order to facilitate the design of sensitive, harmonious and timeless architecture and to protect the visual integrity and architectural spirit of The Village of WestClay, the WestClay Architectural Review Board (the "Review Board ") has established the architectural review procedures contained in this manual. In addition to these requirements, all property owners are also bound by the provisions in the Declaration of Covenants and Restrictions and the Ordinance of The Village of WestClay. No structure within The Village of WestClay shall be erected or altered until the proposed site plan, building plans, construction materials and colors have been approved in writing by the WestClay Architectural Review Board. 3 2. Powers and Duties The WestClay Architectural Review Board has been established to administer the design review for new residential construction and proposed additions or modifications to existing structures within The Village of WestClay. The Review Board is responsible for establishing and providing the design guidelines, design review process, and design review submission requirements. 3. Scope of Review The Review Board reserves the right to review the plans, specifications, materials and samples submitted to them by the applicant, to verify that the proposed structures and/or alterations to existing structures conform to the WestClay Village PUD Ordinance, the Village of WestClay Building Guidelines and Requirements for Residential Construction, the Declaration of Covenants and Restrictions for The Village of WestClay and all supplements and amendments thereto, and to approve the configuration of each lot, the aesthetics of the proposed structure, and its appropriateness to the surrounding neighborhood_ In reviewing each application and related submissions, the Review Board shall be guided by the documents referred to above in italics, herein referred to as the Design Guidelines; however, these documents shall not be the exclusive basis for its decisions. Compliance with the Design Guidelines does not guarantee approval of any application. The Review Board may consider any factor it deems relevant, including harmony of external design with surrounding structures and environment and consistency with the visual themes established for The Village of WestClay. Its decisions may be based purely on aesthetic considerations. By accepting a deed to real property in The Village of WestClay, the applicant acknowledges that determinations as to such matters may be subjective and opinions may vary as to the desirability or attractiveness of any particular improvement. 4 SECTION II DESIGN REVIEW - GENERAL INFORMATION 1. Review of Design Submissions The WestClay Architectural Review Board (ARB) has established the following procedures for the review of residential architectural and landscape designs. Homeowners, builders and architects are encouraged to fully and actively participate in the architectural review process. In addition to the required design review steps, the applicant for design review is encouraged to contact the ARB during the design review process for clarification of the architectural guidelines for The Village of WestClay or design review comments. The ARB will review design submissions as they are received and attempt to respond to them in a timely manner. After the plans have been reviewed, they will be returned to the applicant with written comments from the ARB. Submissions should be sent to: WestClay Architectural Review Board Attention: Marie Urick 12775 Horseferry Road, Suite 230 Carmel, IN 46032 (317) 574 -3400 2. Use and Approval of Design Professionals All plans for new structures and additions to existing structures should be prepared by licensed professionals or otherwise qualified architects, landscape architects, engineers or other qualified designers. It is highly recommended that a team of qualified professionals be used in the preparation of the plans. 3. Design Variances The ARB may authorize variances from compliance with the Design Guidelines, or any of its guidelines and procedures in relation to circumstances such as topography, natural obstructions or architectural merit.

The Review board reserves the right to request additional information in order to review the proposed plans. This review must take place not later than one hundred and twenty (120) days following the purchase of a lot. Upon reviewing the information received, the Review Board will provide written comments to the applicant on the general design direction of the structure, issues to be aware of as they move forward in the design review process, and potential opportunities to explore in their design. Upon completion_ of this stage of the design review process, the design will be forwarded for final review, forwarded for final review with conditions in the form of notes on the drawings made by the Review Board, or returned to the applicant with conditions. If the design is returned to the applicant with conditions, the applicant should make the design changes per the Review Board's recommendations, and resubmit the design for final review. If the applicant does not agree to make the required changes, the plans shall be considered rejected. If the plans are rejected, the applicant shall re- design and re- submit the plans to the Review Board for consideration for approval. 6 3. Final Design Review The Final Design Review has been established to ensure that the applicant's designs for all improvements are in compliance with the Design Guidelines and to verify the incorporation of recommendations made by the Review Board during the Preliminary Design Review. Form B and two (2) sets of the documents listed in Section IV-B, Final Design Review, should be submitted to the Review Board. The Review Board reserves the right to request additional information in order to review the proposed plans Upon completion of this stage of the design review process, the design will be approved, approved with conditions, or not approved and returned to the applicant with conditions.

If the design is approved with conditions, the applicant may proceed with the construction of the proposed improvements provided the required modifications requested by the Review Board are made to the design. The applicant must also submit any additional information requested by the Review Board. If the applicant does not agree to make the required modifications, the plans shall be considered rejected. If the plans are rejected, the applicant shall re- design and re- submit the plans to the Review Board for consideration for approval. 4. Stakeout Review The Stakeout Review has been established to verify that the placement of the house and ancillary structures is consistent with the approved design. The applicant or the applicant's builder is required to stake out the position and elevation of the house and ancillary structures.
