HOA Announcement

HOA Announcement

Park Place’s annual hydrant flushing is scheduled for Friday, November 1, 2024.  Please note that even when flushing is not being done in your immediate area, discolored water can occur. This discoloration poses no health risk. However, please check the water before washing laundry. If laundry staining occurs, do not dry the affected clothing - rewash the clothing when the discoloration clears your system.  You may find it helpful to run your faucets and flush your toilets to clear your pipes of discolored water.  The contractor will start at 8:30 am and said they should be finished by early afternoon.

What is Hydrant Flushing?  Flushing is done annually in an effort to clear the water mains of water that may be discolored or have sat in hydrant laterals for extended lengths of time.   Generally flushing disturbs the water in the mains and causes small particles of rust or calcium buildup to dislodge and suspend in the water.  This water will show up in your household as discolored water and have a yellow to orange to red color.  This water, while unappetizing, poses no health threats.  Running your faucets for several minutes will usually clear the household system and resolve all problems.  So other than a slight pressure loss or discolored water, homeowners more than likely will not even notice it is being done.

Storm Water Issues

There is a need for Residents to perform periodic maintenance (removal of debris) of their storm water drainage ditches. *

 Areas of concern

  • Street ditches in front/side of our personal residences

  • Street culvert(s) under our driveway(s)

  • Non-street (side and rear areas) storm water drainage waterways.

Things to do (remove debris)

  • Rake leaves and remove them from the property.*

  • Move leaves into your lawn (small amounts are good nutrients for your lawn)

  • Keep culverts clear of leaves, branches, yard trash gravel and dirt.

  • Control weed and grass growth by trimming, brush mowing, poisoning or pulling.

  • Pick up sticks/branches and yard trash (especially plastic bags).

* PPHOA by-laws do not permit burning of yard waste.

  • All homeowners who are replacing roofs must submit a sample to our architectural board for approval. Brown, gray or black are the basic approved colors. A shingle that is not archictectural or dimensional in appearance will not be approved. Please email or call a board member to submit a sample and have your contract or proposal stamped and signed.

  • Please remember that the Declarations of the subdivision require that all such projects be reviewed and approved in writing by the Architectural Control Board before construction begins.

    “All” really means “all” and includes replacing a cedar shake roof with non-shake shingles, re-painting using a substantially different color, major changes to exterior landscaping, as well as building additions and exterior remodeling.

    The officers of the Homeowners Association comprise the Architectural Control Board.

    The Architectural Board tries to act quickly on requests to approve plans, but please give us at least 10 days to review your project – do not expect us to be able to approve your plans instantly because “the contractors are arriving tomorrow.”

    If you are building an addition or changing the external appearance of your home or property, please talk with your neighbors before submitting your plans.

    The purpose of the Architectural Board’s review is not to second-guess your aesthetic taste or unduly limit what you can do with your property, but to maintain a relatively consistent set of standards for the neighborhood as set out in the Declarations.
