Safety First - COVID-19


The past few weeks have been challenging for everyone. We encourage you to social distance, but also reach out to your neighbors, especially elderly ones, and be sure they are ok. 

The Board encourages the West Meadows Community to follow the CDC guidelines on how to prevent exposure and safety.

 

Please stay in touch with us for updates.

2020 Paint Colors


PLEASE NOTE - We currently have not yet been approved and registered with the local authority for the eight updated paint colors (Schemes 55-62).

Please do not select them for house painting applications but stay tuned for updates on the 2020 approved paint colors.  

NOTE: May 11, 6:30pm the Board will be voting on the Paint Colors. 

Painting Driveways

In April 2014 the Board of Directors addressed the issue of cracking driveways. In lieu of replacing driveways the Board approved painting of driveways and lips. However, homeowners are limited to painting only their driveway  - not sidewalks. 
The only paint color that was approved for this project is Home Depot/Behr Premium/Concrete & Garage Floor Paint/PFC-67 Mossy Gray. No other color will be approved by the Architectural Control Committee (ACC) AND you must submit an ACC Application for approval prior to painting.

ACC Applications

All change to the exterior of your property requires permission from Architectural Control Committee (ACC). Applications must be mailed to Greenacre Properties. Be sure to use the latest Application form from our website dated December 17, 2019.

In preparation of your application – please read the instructions and provide the required information. Applications are being submitted that do not include photos, plats, and specific color scheme numbers from our new paint book etc. **All paint selections MUST come from the same Color Scheme.  Please indicate the Color Scheme you have selected on the ACC Application.  No exceptions.
 
Following the instructions will help expedite your application. ACC Applications can be found on our webpage or download HERE.

Oh those falling leaves...

The trees have just finishing dropping all their leaves. Yes, they are annoying but sweeping or blowing them in the street and gutters will get you a ticket. It’s against the law. (See attached insert from your latest City of Tampa water bill.)

Even though the gated communities’ streets are private, we should still adhere to the law and dispose of them properly. Thank you for your cooperation.

Florida Parking Laws 


It is required by law to leave 30 feet between a stop sign and your car's front or back bumper (depending on the direction you parked). Parking too close to a stop sign forces traffic on that side of the street to move to the other side of the street, possibly into oncoming traffic. Accidents, serious injury, or death could occur under these circumstances and the owner of the vehicle that is illegally parked may be held fully accountable, both legally and civilly. 

Florida Parking Laws: 
  • 15 feet of a fire hydrant
  • 20 feet of a crosswalk
  • 30 feet of any flashing signal, stop sign, or traffic control signal. 
We appreciate your help with keeping our residents safe from accidents.

 Violation Notices 

If you receive a Violation Notice please return them to our Property Management Company, Green Acre Properties, as instructed in the notice. Do Not leave them at the Community Club Office. Thank you!
