Landscape maintenance
With all the activities and fun to be had this time of year, it can be easy to forget that there are common landscape maintenance issues that may need to be addressed. Common issues we see this time of year are trees that begin to hang too low over sidewalks or on common area walls which may cause damage. Trees also begin to drop debris that can dry up quickly and will need to be cleaned up. This time of year another common compliance tip is to ensure that portable basketball hoops are stored out of sight from neighboring properties. We have included the guidelines for residents wanting to install a basketball hoop.
Installations
All installations require prior DRC Approval. Portable basketball goals are prohibited. Basketball goals mounted on the dwelling unit are prohibited. Permanent basketball backboards shall be installed on permanent pole structures only. The backboard color shall be white, clear plastic, or painted to match the color schemes of the Dwelling Unit. No logos shall be added beyond the manufacturer’s logo. All backboards, located in the front yard shall be on the interior side of the driveway (the side closest to the front door). Rear and side yard goals are not permitted. Backboards, poles, and mounting hardware shall be maintained in a safe and attractive condition, including the rims and nets.
