Thanks Muncle. I called the number you provided and the Architectural Review Office says we do need their "permission" for both vinyl and glass. They gave me the telephone number of 753-0848 for the Building Department as apparently both vinyl and glass also require a Building Permit. I asked the Building Department whether obtaining a Permit would trigger a reassessment and an increase in taxes. They didn't know, so the Building Department gave me the number of the Property Appraiser's office 753-3877 to ask whether our taxes would increase.
In the meantime we've had two estimates, one for glass which came in around $14,000; and one for vinyl which came in around $3600.
And so the search continues.
My thanks to everyone who commented.
