As an operational committee it has the purpose of assuring compliance with architectural requirements as provided in Section 6 of the Rules & Regulations of the LACC. As an advisory committee it has the purpose of providing the General Manager and the Board with reports, recommendations, and suggestions covering those areas of its responsibility on an as-needed basis or for special Board assignments. In addition, a representative of the Architectural Review Committee shall be appointed to any committee overseeing remodel or construction projects for LACC.
