The Architecture department is managed by Kim Back, Community Relations Manager.  All improvements, alterations, modifications or changes to your home on the front, sides or rear of the property need a Home Improvement Application (HIA) as stated in the CC&Rs. The Architectural Committee meets on the 2nd Friday of each month at 9:00 a.m.  The HIA applications are due the Monday before each meeting. If you wish to attend a meeting, you can schedule an appointment with Kim at (949) 837-6100 x126 or kback@pcminternet.com.

 

Lou Flores is the Property Services Liaison and handles the processing of the Home Improvement Applications.  Lou can be seen out in the field as he takes care of the Final Inspections for the HIA forms and when he conducts the Association Escrow Inspections. Lou can be reached at (949) 837-6100 x123 or lflores@pcminternet.com.
