Page 1 of 17 DESIGN GUIDELINES Revised 4 / 12 /2 1 ATTACHMENT B INDIAN SPRINGS RANCH Eureka, Montana DESIGN GUIDELINES 1) Introduction and Overview Indian Springs Ranch is a golf and active lifestyle community located next to state lands in the quaint town of Eureka, Montana. The natural environment consists of broad grassy meadows with foothills from softly rolling to steep, several ponds, a wooded area and a spring - fed creek running through the center of the property. These beautiful and peac eful surroundings must be carefully nurtured to support the planned Indian Springs lifestyle. The use of native plant species in the landscaping process is strongly encouraged in order to blend in with the natural grasslands. An estimated 350 home sites are planned in an approximate 450 - acre area. The overall intent is to create a community where people can live in a neighborhood setting where children can play safely, couples can walk together, friends can share a game of golf, and fitness enthusiasts h ave room to roam. In harmony with the natural landscape, all can enjoy the spectacular scenery, the climate, and the multitude of recreational opportunities year - round Planned offerings for an active lifestyle include a golf course with extensive practi ce facility and walking trails for birdwatchers and wildlife lovers. The Design Guidelines introduced in these pages are to provide an overall framework for residential design in Indian Springs Ranch. The guidelines are intended to: a) Preserve and maintain the inherent qualities of the Indian Springs Ranch environment. b) Guide potential homeowners and builders to plan home designs meeting the intent of the community with architectural design, landscape design and site planning. c) Preserve quality, integ rity, individuality and enduring value for every Owner. d) Explain the approval process for home design reviews and construction regulations. 2) Jurisdictional Review and Approval a) Approval of any project by the DRC does not waive the requirement for permits from local governing agencies, State of Montana, or any other governmental or quasi - governmental agency having jurisdiction in Indian Springs Ranch. Nor does the obtaining of al l required permits from local, State of Montana, or any other governmental or quasi - governmental agency having jurisdiction waive the need for the DRC approval. b) The Indian Springs Ranch Design Review Committee will not knowingly approve a project that vi olates jurisdictional building or zoning codes. The DRC takes no responsibility for plan's conformance to any criteria other than these Guidelines. c) Pursuant to Indian Springs Ranch’s Declaration of Covenants, Conditions and Restrictions (CC&R’s), a Design Review Committee (DRC) will enforce these Design Guidelines. 3) The f ollowing items must be reviewed and approved by the Design Review Committee process before construction begins to ensure guidelines are met : a) All Lots and Parcels located within the develop ment b) Each home, shed, drainage/grade plans and any additions to the property. c) The Design Review Process and Application form appear in the last section of this document. Page 2 of 17 DESIGN GUIDELINES Revised 4 / 12 /2 1 4) Membership a) All property Owners are members of the Indian Springs Ranch Homeowners Association (ISRA) and thereby are subject to the Covenants, Conditions and Restrictions (CCR’s) , and the Bylaws and Rules of ISRA. b) The membership and responsibilities of membership also extend to all individuals leasing property from Indian Spr ings Ranch property Owners and to Builders who purchase Lots for the purpose of building homes. c) The Developer and ISRA reserve the right to: i) Place liens on properties for unpaid fines. ii) Seek Temporary Restraining Orders for violations of any provision of th ese Design Guidelines, CCR’s or ISRA Bylaws. iii) Use any other remedy available to them under law and/or equity including attorney fees. 5) Design Objectives a) To retain the natural grassland and rolling foothills feel of Indian Springs Ranch. The homes, recreation facilities, and features must not overcome the natural environment. Integrating topography, trees, vegetation and other natural features of the land is critically important. Accordingly, each home should be oriented and designed in response to the individual characteristics of its site and the site as a whole. 6) Neighborhoods within Indian Springs a) There are and will be several individual neighborhoods within the development, designated by their road systems. Each neighborhood will have a slightly different standard of expectations for architectural and landscaping requirements. I.E. the large lots up on Quirk Trail are held to a higher standard than th ose down on Leonard Lane as the views, elevations, and location of the Quirk Trail lots bring in a higher lot value than those on Leonard Lane. These different expectations are not listed out in the Guidelines but will be communicated between the DRC and p roperty owner/builder throughout the process. 7) General Guidelines Overview a) B uildings should blend in, rather than stand out. H eight restrictions will limit buildings to 25’ above natural grade Exceptions may be made in future phases along hillsides. b) The exterior shape and design of homes should complement the natural environment. c) The colors and materials of buildings in Indian Springs Ranch must also complement the natural environment. This can be achieved with appropriate materials and colors. Appropri ate colors include the muted color tones visible in the grasslands, hills and mountains. Harsh artificial materials and primary colors will not achieve this intent d) The landscaping around the finished home must complete the blending of home and land and pr ovide for proper drainage. e) Montana Water Rights dictate the maximum volume of irrigation water permissible per historic usage. Maximum square footage of irrigated grass per lot (s) is: i) Residential home: 70 00 square feet ii) Duplex lot per side: 3 000 square feet iii) The design review committee can make an exception to the above maximums for large or irregular shaped lots. f) Indian Springs Ranch infrastructure includes a community potable water system, irrigation and fire suppression system and sewer effluent filtration and drainage system. All Lot Owners are required to connect to this system and to purchase and install a septic tank for the ir building. g) Prior to any lot excavation, development or construction, the Owner’s architectural , grade and drainage plans must be reviewed by the DRC. 8) Building Envelope and Buildings Page 3 of 17 DESIGN GUIDELINES Revised 4 / 12 /2 1 a) Sensitivity to design and siting of the home among various ecological elements is critical to maintain the integrity and value of your Lot, as well as your neighbors. b) On each site, a Building Envelope will be es tablished to define the area in which a home and garage can be sited. Setbacks from lot lines to Building Envelope and septic tank will vary with the specific natural features of individual sites. General Setbacks include 2 5’ minimum from the road, and 10’ minimum from any adjoining property. c) O ne home and one guest house may be constructed on any Residential Lot. Some lots may be able to accommodate a shop. d) Where permitted, a guest house , detached garage or shop should be designed as a single visual elemen t with the Home and should be visually connected by walls, courtyard or other major landscape elements. 9) Water /Sewer a) Water Meters and meter pits are required for commercial lots to connect to the Indian Springs Ranch community water system but not residential homes. b) A properly sized septic tank will be placed on the lot with minimum setbacks of 10 feet from property lines and foundations , the contractor must consult with an ISR employee. c) During construction of your new home or commercial building, your plumbing contractor will be required to set up a site meet with the operator of the Indian Springs Water User Association to discuss connection requirements and to locate curb stops for your lot.
