Here’s the paragraph you sign on the ARC application

“ Property owner acknowledges ARC approvals and denials are made in accordance with the District’s adopted Rules,
Standards, and the information supplied by the property owner. It is the property owners’ responsibility to obtain all
necessary permits, governmental approvals and maintain compliance with all governmental laws, water management
district plans, and private restrictions, including but not limited to: building regulations, zoning regulations, plat
requirements, permitting, and declaration of restrictions (collectively, the “Laws”). The Village Community Development
Districts (the “Districts”) and ARC shall have no liability or obligation to determine whether the requested improvements,
changes, alterations or additions comply with the Laws. Property owner shall indemnify and hold harmless the Districts,
ARC, and their principals for any claims arising from property owner’s construction of any improvements to their
property. Without limiting the foregoing, ARC approval in no way modifies the property owners’ responsibility or
liability to maintain designated storm water flow paths and avoid encroachments into easement areas.”
