THE FORMS ON THIS PAGE ARE FOR ARCHITECTURAL MODIFICATIONS.
Multiple Architecture Review Forms (A R Cs or ARCs) have been developed to make it easier for you to submit a complete architectural modification request package the first time and prevent the review process from being delayed. Your package being submitted should consist of:
- the cover page form that provides additional information for the review and acknowledgement of the requirements.
- the specific architecture review form.
- any pictures or diagrams to clarify the modification style and/or placement on the property.
- any necessary insurance documents and licenses.
The forms available here for download are the Cover Page (pdf) and the following work-specific forms:

The Cover Page, the Architecture Review Form(s), and the supporting documents must be submitted to the management company AND approved by the Board BEFORE work starts. Violators will be subject to fines and, depending on the problem, the work may be subject to removal/reversal at the owner’s expense!
The City of Margate has an updated municipal codes web site for permit applications that includes information and the City-wide standards for many of the architectural modifications. The site also includes minimum permit requirements including specifications for a shadowbox fence, maximum driveway widths, and other relevant information.
