FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

​

Q:  Why can’t we have a gated community?

A:   When the builders originally designed our community, they did not engineer the entryway to have a gate and allowed our road to remain “public”. With this in mind, it is the reason why any repair that is required to the road whether it is storm sewage drains, street lights and side walk falls under Hillsborough County’s responsibility.

     If we were to install a gate, not only it would be cost prohibitive, but would also require  annual maintenance and the road will no longer be a public road, which would also cause its maintenance to fall under our responsibility. This would cause our HOA fee to go up just to have a gate that does not guarantee safety and access codes are routinely given out to others.

 

Q:  I want to extend my driveway, paint my house, change my landscaping, do I need to submit a form for board approval?

A:  Yes. This will ensure that you are within the Architecture Guidelines which can be found by clicking HERE

 

Q:  My driveway is too short and I have multiple vehicles, why can’t I park on the street?

A:  Overnight street parking is not allowed due to the fact that our road is too narrow and causes traffic congestion. We encourage you to clean up your garage and use it to park your vehicle(s) inside the garage. If you have a short driveway, you may also parallel park a third vehicle at the edge of your driveway, however, must not be parked on the grass and must not block the sidewalk. Also, overnight street parking at the playground parking lot is not allowed.
