About the NCC

The NCC is charged with making sure all new development meets High Desert architectural and design standards. The goal is to preserve the aesthetic character and value of our community. This is done by following the High Desert Guidelines for Sustainability developed for each of the villages. In order to ensure that new homes are built according to High Desert standards and meet certain governmental requirements, the Association requires a construction deposit of $8,000 for Estate and Premier Lots and $4,000 for Builder Lots. The balance is refunded, less fees, after final NCC approval.
