British Properties Convenanted Property Design Approval Process
Formalized design guidelines are part of all British Properties neighbourhoods. These guidelines are important to all property owners because they protect everyone’s property values by ensuring a minimum standard of design quality and neighbourhood consistency for any home alteration or redevelopment. As a registered owner in a British Properties’ subdivision, when you intend to build, extend or alter a building or construct a fence or any other structure, you must submit an application for approval through the Approving Authority, British Pacific Properties Limited (BPP).
