THE LAKES OF MUIRFIELD ARCH. CONTROLS
& WHEATLAND COUNTY BYLAWS
Wheatland County is our municipal authority, responsible for enforcing building codes, Traffic Laws, the usual Land Use Bylaws, and maintaining our roads. The Lakes of Muirfield, like most modern communities maintains architectural controls to ensure our community is well maintained, safe and appealing. The Controls’ intent and vision is to promote a Welcoming Community. The Homeowners’ Association Board (HOA) manages, updates and enforces these Controls.
The Controls’ is a ‘living document’, which means the H.O.A. Board can amend the Controls based on the needs and availability of the resident’s styles, materials, and design advances over time. Download the most recent version of our Architectural Controls here.
Wheatland County Land Use bylaws may be found here. County permit requirements here. We urge residents to research all regulations prior to project start.
New Homes
Acceptable styles are a blend of Prairie Gothic and Scottish Tudor. Please contact our Design Consultants, Arcadis (here) before new home permit applications are forwarded to Wheatland County.
Existing Homes
Once a home is built and occupied, our Architectural Controls provide general guidelines for landscaping (to be completed, depending on seasonality, within six to twelve months of occupancy) and adequate property upkeep. All exterior new or renovation projects must be approved prior to start by submitting the Architectural Renovation Request Form to the HOA. Download here. No approvals are required for interior work.
Is a Request Form Required Every Time, Even for Projects That Follow the Controls?
Yes, please! There is no charge, and it is only to ensure the homeowner’s interpretation of what adheres coincides with the spirit of the deliberately broad Controls. Note: Even with HOA approval, your project may still require Wheatland County Permits. Please be sure the appropriate permits are submitted and approved before work begins.

HISTORY
Nearly two decades have passed since the approved Entitlement Process allowed for the phased development of more than 700 residences, a resort style golf course, and a small commercial component, north of the existing hamlet of Lyalta in 2005. In that time, the Lakes of Muirfield has faced more than it’s share of challenges, but we can now boast a vibrant, growing, and beautiful community that was well worth it. Want to learn more?
