Looks like I'm just down the street from you! We live in Missouri City (Sienna Plantation). I guess I should update my profile. We also had to get HOA approval. It didn't take any time but was a waste of $200. $100 was the standard fee and I opted to pay an extra $100 to expedite the process. We missed the deadline to get our plans submitted by one day. We were going to have to wait another month otherwise, as that's how often the building subcommittee meets. It's amazing though that for $100, no committee meeting is necessary. :roll:
