Join us on the evening of July 3rd for
FIREWORKS at the Clubhouse.
 

Notice

The Board has added an additional meeting to their calendar *August 5 at 6:30 pm.  Meeting to be held at the clubhouse party room.

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

REMINDER *** All change to the exterior of your property requires permission from Architectural Control Committee (CDD).

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.
 
Following the instructions will help expedite your application. ACC Applications can be found on our webpage or download HERE.

HOA Board working on New Community Signage

The Board is working with Arete Industries to design new signage for our community. You may have noticed that Richmond Place recently had their signage upgraded to granite and it looks great. Our project will take several years to implement based on the cost and not wanting to increase HOA fees.
Recently we lost the Lakewood sign that is attached to the Clark Elementary School sign – these signs will have to be replaced as quickly as possible. Others will be phased in as funds permit.

We think you will find the new signage appealing and up-to- date with other communities in our area. More information will be provided at a later date.

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!
