Engineering & Structural Liability
Legal text
"The Architectural Control Committee, the Board of Directors, and the Association are comprised of volunteer neighbors, not licensed architects, engineers, or municipal building inspectors. Any approval of an application (whether via Standard ACC Approval, Active Consent, or Passive Consent) constitutes purely a review for compliance with these Covenants. Approval by the Association shall never be construed as an endorsement, certification, or warranty regarding the structural integrity, engineering safety, construction methods, or compliance with municipal building codes of any project. Furthermore, any Lot Owner who grants Active Consent or Passive Consent under Section 10 is stipulating solely to a waiver of aesthetic objection under these Covenants; such consenting Owners assume absolutely no liability for the design, construction, safety, or legal compliance of their neighbor's project. The absolute liability and responsibility for the safety, engineering, and legal compliance of any modification remains entirely with the applicant Lot Owner."
