writing as to harmony of external design and location in relation to surrounding structures and
topography by the Architectural Review Committee. If the Architectural Review Committee
fails to approve or disapprove such design and location within thirty (30) days after said plans
and specifications have been submitted to it, approval will not be required and this article will be
deemed to have been fully complied with. Refusal or approval of any such plans, location or
specification may be based upon any ground, including purely aesthetic and environmental
considerations, that in the sole and uncontrolled discretion of the Architectural Review
Committee shall be deemed sufficient. One copy of all plans and related data shall be furnished

is heated by a common heating system; provided, however. that such term does not include
garages, terraces. decks, open porches and like areas.
(b) Since the establishment of inflexible building setback lines for location of

ecological and related considerations, no specific setback lines are established by this
Declaration. In order to assure, however, that the foregoing considerations are given maximum
effect, the site and location of any house or dwelling or other structure upon any Lot shall be
controlled by and must be approved absolutely by the Architectural Review Committee:
