As a homeowner or tenant it is your responsibility to be familiar with these Rules and if a violation of these Rules is observed you will be issued a notice. Some violations allow up to a 45 day period to cure the issue (e.g., house painting), while others (parking, refuse, traffic violations such a speeding or running a stop sign, etc.) carry an immediate fine for each occurrence. Upon receipt of a violation notice you have 14 days to submit a written request to meet with the Fining Committee to appeal the violation. Violations carry a progressive fine structure beginning at $25 for the first, $50 for the second, $75 for the third, and $100 for all subsequent violations for the same type of infraction. This means a parking violation is one violation, while running a stop sign is another. Please review these Rules carefully and contact Terrie if you have any questions. Below is a brief summary of our most common violations and a few of the major rule changes:
Violations:
- All pets, including cats, must be under the owners direct control (meaning in your arms or on a leash) when outside the residence and all feces cleaned up after. This includes cleaning up on your own property.
- No more than two domestic animals are permitted.
- Trash cans are permitted to be placed at the curb after 6pm on Monday and Thursday nights and must be removed from the pickup area the same day as collection is made and placed out of sight (either in the garage or behind a hedge on the side of the house). Lawn debris may be placed at the curb Sunday afternoon for pickup on Tuesday and on the side of your house the remainder of the time.
- Parking is not permitted on the roadway between 2:00 am and 6:00 am. Parking is not permitted on the grass.
