Architecture Committee
Our mission is to encourage preservation of the Mid Century Modern character of Holly Hill Farms. We will achieve this through architectural plan reviews and will serve as a resource for residents and realtors regarding Mid Century architectural style and related information. Our goal is to maintain the architectural integrity of Holly Hill Farms, ensuring it as a desirable place to live.
Future Projects?
The Architectural Committee has the primary goal of continuing to preserve the integrity of our beautiful neighborhood. This includes following the current Bylaws, Covenants & Restrictions and City Zoning & Ordinances. It also includes keeping a level of sophistication and harmony.
With many long awaited projects you may way to accomplish, please be reminded that, per the Holly Hill Farms Covenants and Restrictions your plans regarding work on the exterior of your home and major landscaping, such as fences, patios, sheds, ANY type of structure etc., need to be submitted to and approved by the Holly Hill Farms Architectural Committee. A color scheme change would also require a form. Please see the Covenants & Restrictions below.
So before swinging those hammers or breaking ground, be sure to contact us using email and the exterior modification form.
For your convenience, we have created an email where you should send your plans and questions: hhfarchitecturalcommittee@gmail.com.
Also, keep in mind that your project may also require a permit from Farmington Hills. Please check permit requirements on the City’s website at https://www.fhgov.com/home.aspx or by calling the Building Division at (248) 871-2450.
