As we enter into the spring season, please remember that any kind of exterior changes, repairs or improvements to your home (roofs, fences, decks, painting, driveways, exterior repairs, to name a few, must be approved by the HOA Architectural Committee prior to starting the work. This is to continue to maintain the architectural feel and look of Brookwood Place. The BP HOA governing documents allow daily fines by the HOA for work that has not been approved. Many changes and improvements also require a city permit. The city can inform the HOA of any permits granted.
Please contact Kevin Knipp at 785-342-9067 or kevin.knipp@gmail.com for HOA approval.
Solar Panels
The members of the Board of Directors have received reports from our subdivision neighbors that they have been approached by various vendors regarding solar panel installation on their homes.
One of our HOA subdivision members requested our consideration and approval of solar panels to be installed on their house. After a presentation by the member, reviewing subdivision documents, reviewing Lenexa city rules and regulations and discussions by the Architectural Committee, it was decided at the March 2022 BP Board of Directors meeting that there will be no approval of solar panels for Brookwood Place subdivision.
If you are approached by these solar panel vendors please inform them that solar panels are not approved by the HOA.
