FAQ
What if I want to make changes to the exterior of my home?
You will need to contact the ACC for approval, please fill out the online form below.
What are some examples of exterior changes that I would need to get approved?
Owners need to obtain prior written approval to remove live trees greater than 4” in diameter, erect a fence, display signs, add solar, build additions, sheds or modify the exterior of their home. There is no overnight parking of commercial vehicles. Owners can’t store construction materials or waste, accumulate other debris, operate a public business, keep unregistered vehicles or boats, or paint a home’s exterior (without having the color scheme pre-approved). The Covenants & Bylaws links below contain the full GHHA guidance—you are welcome to download a copy! All lots in Great Hills also fall under the Sandwich Historic District’s jurisdiction, and its rules for exterior modifications—everything from hedges to sheds to paint colors are within its jurisdiction and in addition to GHHA’s regulations and covenants. They are both critical.
When does the board of directors meet?
All homeowners are welcome to attend our monthly meetings. (As of February 2020, The Board switched to “Zoom” virtual meetings for the foreseeable future.) Please call or email for log-in details. Board of Directors membership is open to all lot owners in good standing. Board positions are “formally” entertained at the Annual Meeting but may be considered anytime at the Board’s discretion.
