Page | 4 Alteration Reqest Version 12.6.2020
Statement of Understanding
You are submitting the Alteration Request to the Executive Board for their review and approval of the
alteration described on this form. For this request to be considered, the following conditions must be
understood.
1. The management company will send the alteration proposal to the Executive Board for review.
The Executive Board reviews the alteration application, returns the decision to the management
and a letter is sent to the resident. If a decision on the alteration proposal is not returned within 30
days, said request is deemed to be denied by the Executive Board.
2. You are responsible for the actions of all contractors working on your behalf. The Association is
not responsible for the quality or liability of the contractors hired by the unit owner. It is
recommended that you require that adequate insurance be maintained by all contractors working
on your behalf. By submitting this application, you covenant and agree, at your sole cost and
expense, to indemnify, protect and save the Association and its Management Agent harmless
against loss or expense by reason of liability imposed upon the Association and its Management
Agent for any and all damages, injuries, losses, liabilities, obligations, penalties, claims, litigation,
demands, defenses, judgments, suits, proceedings, costs, disbursements or expenses (including,
without limitation, reasonable attorneys’ and experts’ fees and disbursements) of any kind or of
any nature whatsoever which may at any time be imposed upon, incurred by or asserted or
awarded due to the project contemplated herein and/or any act or omission of your contractor or
subcontractors.
3. You shall ensure that contractors call Pennsylvania One Call System before digging. If you, your
contractor or any subcontractors come across a utility line during installation, you must cease
installation and contact the Association Executive Board. The Board will then determine whether
it is an Association amenity and whether the Board will permit the line to be rerouted. If the line is
to be rerouted, you will be responsible to ensure that rerouting will not reduce the functionality of
the line. You will indemnify the Association for any damage done to any lines.
4. You accept responsibility for crossing or encroaching on easements for the benefit of others. The
Association can make no representation that you will not have an issue due to an encroachment
into a defined easement area. The Association will not get involved in any such dispute.
5. You are responsible for assuring that any related state, local laws or building codes are being
followed. The township has its own regulations that may require permits. You are responsible for
any required township permits. Certain requests may be subject to regulation/permit. Approval of
any project by the Board does not waive the necessity of obtaining the required township permits.
Obtaining a township permit does not waive the need for Board approval.
6. I Understand and Agree that fines may be assessed (and that the Association may bring legal
action against me at my expense) if I begin alterations before approval has been given in writing
by the Board of Directors or if I proceed with denied or otherwise unauthorized alterations.
I, __________________________________________, have read, understand and agree with the above
outlined conditions and herby affix my signature as evidence of agreement.
