Huntington HOAs commonly require Architectural Review Committee approval for exterior changes under their governing documents. Review standards must be reasonable and applied consistently under NY fiduciary duty law. Solar panels are protected from HOA bans under NY Real Property Law 335-b.
Architectural review authority derives from the community declaration and CCRs recorded against the property. Common requirements include approval for paint colors, fences, sheds, additions, landscaping changes, and satellite dishes (subject to FCC OTARD preemption). NY courts apply the Business Judgment Rule to HOA board decisions, giving boards deference when acting in good faith. However NY Real Property Law 335-b prohibits HOAs from banning solar panels, though reasonable placement restrictions are permitted. American flags are also protected from HOA prohibition under federal Freedom to Display the American Flag Act. Review timelines are set by bylaws - typically 30 to 60 days.
