There was some hubbub awhile back about a few properties that were built with landscaping that was against the restrictions. There would have been no need for ARC approval, because the properties were still owned by the Developer. So at some point, these properties were up for RE-sale, were purchased, and then - years later - someone submitted complaints and the current home-owners had to deal with the fallout.
So - ARC might be useful, or it might not be. It depends on what you're looking to check on, and how long it's been there. If it came with the house when it was first built, then ARC wouldn't have any request for approval on it.
