Architectural Request Status Definitions

Architectural requests have several statuses in the ARC Central system and will be color coded for easy identification. This is a complete list of all available Statuses. Some of these are optional and may not be visible for your Association.

• Pending - newly submitted by the requester, has not been reviewed by Processor
• Pending Committee Meeting - request has been reviewed by Processor for completeness, but pending further review by the Board/Staff
• Pending Committee Vote and Under 3rd Party Review - being reviewed by Committee or other outside group and awaiting votes
• Decision Reached - Processing - required votes have been submitted and request is awaiting administrative recording
• More Information Requested - sent back to requestor for required details
• Missing Info Received - request form sent back with required details
• Completed - request process is complete and a decision has been recorded, all approved requests are sent to system of record (VMS for All Access customers)
• Denied - request process is complete but not approved, did not pass vote
• Withdrawn - homeowner withdraws request
• Appealed - request was denied and an appeal requested 
• Final Inspection - these statuses occur after the project approval and decision. These are administrative tracking for the staff.
