General Reminders

Roofing Materials

In October 2004 the design review committee has approved two new roofing products. The Residential Improvement Guidelines will be amended to cover these new products.

Concrete Repairs

When replacing concrete walks or porch at front of house, please contact Design Review for approval. If replacing in kind it is not necessary to get approval.

Signs in the Entrance Areas

Garage Sale and Open House signs are permitted on a temporary basis. Signs should be attractive and attached to self supporting Poles (not taped to the brick structures or fences , or on the stop sign or lamp posts). Signs advertising services (lawn care, painting, deck additions, remodeling are not permitted. Signs not properly posted will be removed.

Vehicle Parking

It is illegal to park at an angle or the wrong way on a street. Parking at an angle in a cul-de-sac is a safety hazard, making it difficult for emergency equipment to maneuver. Please parallel park.

Homeowners are encouraged to avoid on-street parking and to garage all vehicles. Those with more than two vehicles are strongly encouraged to park extra vehicles in their driveway, rather than on the street, for reasons of safety and aesthetics of our neighborhood.

Trash Containers

Trash containers must be kept in the garage. Enclosures are not permitted.  Trash should not be placed  on the street for pick-up earlier than the evening before pick-up. Residential Improvement Guideline 2.82.

Trailers, Motor home, Campers, Tent, Boat or Truck
