Message from the Board
Happy spring from your Homeowners
Association Board! We are very excited
for this first year as a board and look forward to serving our community. We will be sending out a community newsletter
once a quarter to keep everyone up to date on what is going on in your
neighborhood. We are holding monthly
board meetings on the second Tuesday of every month. These meetings are open to the public. If you would like to be a part of the agenda,
please send in your request to our email: copper.valley.hoa@gmail.com by the Friday before the meeting to be
considered. If there are any questions,
Stuart will contact you.
New
Landscape Company
We have contracted with a new company
this year to take care of our landscaping needs. We as a board met with Sean from All Seasons
and are very excited to have him and his team working within our
community. He wants to make sure his
guys do the best job possible so if you see anything that may need a little
extra attention, please let the board know.
Also, for any interested homeowners,
Sean is giving us a great neighborhood rate for both aeration and fertilizing
(weed and feed) for our own yards. If
you would like to contact Sean for more information about what he has to offer,
give him a call at 801-676-6429 to find out the great prices and to schedule an
appointment.
Parks
We are very fortunate to have open
park areas that we can all enjoy! Let’s
do our best to keep them looking great and to always leave them looking better
than we found them. Please encourage
your children to not play with the rocks found at the bottom of the retention
pond areas. This creates a problem for
the landscapers and it just doesn’t look good having them scattered
everywhere.
Parking
near fire hydrants
We would like to remind everyone that
we have several fire hydrants located within our community. The law states no parking
within 15 feet of a fire hydrant. Please
be aware of where you are parking and to obey this law.
Neighborhood
Pets
Article 2.6 of our neighborhood
CC&R’s states: No animals, livestock,
or poultry of any kind shall be raised, bred or kept on any Lot, except as
follows: dogs, cats or other household pets may be kept so long as they are not
kept, bred or maintained for any commercial purpose and are restricted to the
owner’s control: and, no more than two such household pets of over six months
of age shall be kept on any Lot. “Control” for the above purposes shall mean
on a leash or lead, within a vehicle, within the residence of the owner, or
within the fenced confines on the Lot.
Fierce, dangerous or vicious animals, or animals that cause a nuisance
by barking or other offensive activity,
as determined in the reasonable judgment of the Board of the Association,
shall not be permitted.
Simply put, a dog must be on a leash or
lead unless they are in your vehicle, house, or fenced in back yard. Also, we as a board have determined that
other offensive activity includes dogs pooping on the lawns of those they don’t
belong to. If you take your dog on a
walk or to the park, you must clean up after your dog. We have received several
complaints and will be enforcing regardless of the size or nature of the dog.
Proposed
Amendments to CC&R’s
We as a board have reviewed our
community’s CC&R’s in regards to parking, the parking lots, as well as
placement of garbage cans. In order to make
any amendments, a vote must be taken and there must be at least 75% of the
community voting in favor of the change.
Before we send out any ballots, we would like to see how our neighbors
feel about our recommendation to amend the following.
Parking on streets: Add no parking on
streets between the hours of 12:00 am (midnight) to 6:00 am.
Parking lots: No commercial parking as
well as allowing homeowners to use the parking lots for their personal vehicles
only 2 days out of the month.
Garbage cans: To allow garbage cans on
the side of the house without being screened but still no cans to be kept along
the front of the house.
We have created a poll on our community
website (www.coppervalleyhoa.blogspot.com) for you to give us your response to each possible
amendment. Voting will be closed May 10th,
prior to our next HOA board meeting.
Contact
Information for Board and new website
We value your feedback and encourage
each of you to communicate with the HOA board anytime via the board email
address: copper.valley.hoa@gmail.com. We are also in the process of putting together a
simple website for our community. You
can find that at www.coppervalleyhoa.blogspot.com. We will be
posting a copy of the newsletter, meeting agendas, meeting minutes, and other
information that we feel will benefit the community. The website also offers a
translation option, if needed.
We are excited for the upcoming warm
weather, being outside more, and interacting with our neighbors!
