What is the Architectural Control Committee?

The Architectural Control Committee (“ACC”) of Southpoint Subdivision is established to maintain the quality and desirability of Southpoint by overseeing the compliance of the Restrictive Covenants of SPHA.

The ACC is charged with carrying out the general plan of the subdivision and to ensure that we maintain a high standard of appearance within the neighborhood. The ACC is separate and autonomous (i.e., the right or power of self-government; undertaken or carried on without outside control; existing or capable of existing independently; responding, reacting, or developing independently of the whole) to the Board of Directors although it works closely with the Board.

Need to Report a Restrictive Covenant Violation?
