Architectural or Maintenance Requests
There are two types of Work Requests.
- A Maintenance Request is a Work Request that will be performed by the HOA at the HOA’s expense.
- An Architectural Request (formerly called a Homeowner Request) is a request for any work that will be performed by the homeowner at his/her expense that requires HOA approval. (See sample list below.)
NOTE: Effective April 1, 2024, to submit a work request of either type, please log into your Resident Portal by clicking here.
For help in setting up your Resident Portal please click here.
(Click here for more information on Work Requests) If you choose not to establish your portal you may use the “Contact Us > General Inquiry” form, or you can submit a request in writing by printing a paper version. Click here to download and print a paper version of the PM 2 Work Request form. These must be mailed to LCVHOA, 10 Maine Rd., Plattsburgh, NT 12903
Some examples of work requiring an Architectural Work Request are:
- Adding, removing, altering or trimming any plantings anywhere outside the home except inside the fenced-in backyard.
- Installing anything inside the home which requires a new penetration of the roof or exterior walls (examples: installing mini-splits or new heating systems).
- Replacing or adding a window.
- Replacing or painting an exterior door, including the garage door.
- Painting of, or attaching anything to, the exterior of your building including inside the fenced in backyard.
- Adding or changing anything in a mail kiosk.
- Repairing or replacing sidewalks, driveways or hardscaping.
- Placing anything on the Common Area.
All Work Requests are submitted to the Property Manager (PM). If you are not sure if a Work Request is needed, we recommend filling one out anyway. If it is not needed, the Property Manager will simply advise you accordingly.
Certain Architectural Requests can be approved solely by the Property Manager. Although you must still submit a Request, these generally do not require review by a committee or action of the Board. For information about these types of Work Requests, click the appropriate link below.
PLEASE NOTE!
An Architectural Request (formerly Homeowner Request) is required so that your HOA can approve work being done that impacts the common area, portions of your home which the HOA maintains or the visual appearance of your property. It does not, however satisfy the need to obtain a building permit from the City of Plattsburgh. If a building permit is required, you are responsible for obtaining it. You can find out more information about Building Permits and obtain a copy of an application by clicking here. If you are not sure if a building permit is needed, please contact the Office of the Building Inspector, City of Plattsburgh.
