2014 Compliance Guidelines
We have a very large majority of neighbors who are respectful of their own properties by maintaining them on an on-going basis and thereby maintaining our community’s property values/assets.
However, we still have continuing challenges with some of our neighbors in regards to complying with our bylaws, covenants and policies, especially concerning yard maintenance ; structure maintenance, and storage of materials (garbage, materials, junk, abandoned vehicles, abandoned vessels, and abandoned trailers) in sight from the street or from a neighbor’s view.
By using the enclosed Checklist, if a property has been found to be in “non-compliance”, the property owner will receive a letter from the Board so specifying the problem and will be advised of the following:
The reason for the letter
A reasonable amount of time to comply
The appeal process if the member disagrees with the findings
What the monetary fines will be for non-compliance (maximum $40.00 per day) and the due date to be paid
What action will be taken if fines are not paid or problem is not remedied
Since our community is a unique one, with developed lots/homes, vacant lots and undeveloped lots, we have defined each category as follows:
!. Developed or otherwise occupied lots:
Any lot that is connected to TBBC water and/or sewer system and has personal property situated on site such as, but not limited to, a house, shed, structure, boat, vehicle, or trailer.
2. Vacant lots:
Any lot that is presently connected to or can be connected to TBBC water and/or sewer systems but is not occupied as described above under “Developed”.
3. Undeveloped lots:
Any lot that is not currently connected to TBBC water and/or sewer systems; is not occupied as described above; nor has any available means for connection to TBBC water and/or sewer systems at this time.
