Architectural Committee
The Architectural Committee was established
by the Oak Forest Bylaws and prescribed by the original deed restrictions.
Its purpose is to review all construction and renovation plans
that are normally submitted to the City of Houston for the permitting
process. The submission and review process is for required for
new construction of all types, the increasing of square footage
of a residence such as additional structure enclosures of either
air conditioned or non-air conditioned space (i.e. room addition),
new garage construction or addition and carport construction.
For more info consult your sections deed restriction and/or call
the OFNA hotline at 713-688-6342 or for a faster response you may email the Committee
Chair.
As some sections of Oak Forest have deed restrictions
that differ from the City of Houston’s requirements, and
to avoid unnecessary revisions between architect/contractor and
the City, construction documents should be submitted to the Architectural
Committee and approved prior to being submitted to the City of
Houston for permitting.
Plans not submitted for review prior to City
of Houston plan approval or construction will be red tagged (construction
halted) until the plans have been reviewed and all objections
remedied prior to approval by the architectural committee.
Renovations that will not trigger Architectural
Committee review include, but are not limited to interior renovation
of all types, exterior painting & roofing. The Committee will convene as
needed for plan review.
Plans can be arranged for submission to the
Homeowners Association by contacting the OFHA hotline at 713-688-6342,
emailing the Committee
Chair or by attending a homeowners meeting.
