Planning an exterior home improvement, don�t forget to contact the HME Architectural Committee. We�re typically able to coordinate a site visit and review within two � three weeks. The more advanced notice you can give us the easier it is on everyone�s schedule.

Each improvement request is evaluated on its own merits and circumstances.

The homeowner is responsible to ensure all property improvements are within their property line and that they do not impact any easements that are on their property per appendix I section C of the HME bylaws.

The homeowner is also responsible to ensure all necessary construction permits are obtained from the appropriate local governing bodies and that all improvements meet current codes and specifications.

A list of construction activities requiring a permit by East Goshen Township can be found on the townships web site.

Although not required for the review process, we ask that applicants give their neighbors a courtesy heads up regarding their improvement to help eliminate or reduce concern after the fact.
