Proposed Change to Paint Standard for Summerfield
(cross-outs show intended deletions, while italics show additions)
All homeowners are required to maintain the paint on the exterior of their home. Painting of one’s home, even if using the same paint color, requires that homeowners submit an Application for Architectural Improvement—Exterior Paint to the Architectural Committee prior to commencement of painting.
In addition, a paint swatch/sample must be included for all painted areas (i.e. house body, trim, accent, and door) with the application.
1) The Property Services Division of Dunn-Edwards Paint, along with the Summerfield Homeowner’s Association, has developed 20 approved Paint Schemes (hyperlink here, if possible). These schemes provide the homeowner suggestions for the paint color for the body of the house, the trim, and the door. The homeowner may use these colors as presented or they may interchange colors with the exception of those designated as “door color only.” Applications which use only colors from among the 20 approved paint schemes will be approved.
2) Homeowners are not required to purchase paint from Dunn-Edwards. Homeowners may choose another vendor or propose a similar color as shown in to those found in the Paint Scheme books for consideration by the Architectural Committee.
3) If the colors the owners want to use are not among those in the 20 approved Paint Schemes, the owners must submit actual paint samples greater than 25 square inches (5 in X 5 in) that show the desired color alongside the colors from the approved schemes that they most closely resemble. The Committee will then decide whether to approve the application based upon three factors: (a) whether the requested paint colors will maintain the preference for earth tones; (b) whether they are within the general range of colors found in the set of approved paint schemes; and (c) whether they satisfy the goal of maintaining a harmonious look within Summerfield.
43) Paint Scheme books with swatch samples of each scheme may be checked out from the Architectural Committee Chairman upon request for a period of one week.
54) Dunn-Edwards offers a 3720% discount to all Summerfield homeowners on their paint purchases. 5) To view paint swatches on-line, go to: www.dunnedwards.com. Click on “Paint Center”, select “Product Catalog”, then click on “Exterior Paint.”
