Selling Your Home? Just a reminder; Signs can only be posted and prospects will only be permitted to enter the community
after Management is notified in writing of the Listing, Listing
Brokerage and Listing Agent.
Also, Homeowners cannot transfer Home Ownership or Site
Leases without Managements’ prior approval of the New
Homeowner.
Facility Upgrades: Please be patient and pardon our dust...in
2015 along with a general facelift to the landscaping, there will
be improvements to the recreational facilities and clubhouse. A
partial list includes; new carpeting, paint, moldings, interior
shutters and a few surprises.
Pedestrian Safety: At the Falls we strive to promote greater
appreciation and observance of practices conducive to
pedestrian safety and mutual courtesy.
Key traffic principles for pedestrians and drivers include:
●
A road user's right of way must be exercised with “due care”
Pedestrians may cross at most mid-block locations, but must
yield outside a crosswalk.
●
A driver is obliged to yield the right of way to a pedestrian
lawfully crossing in a crosswalk If a sidewalk is provided, a
pedestrian traveling along a street or road is obliged to use it if
practical, otherwise to keep as far left as practical on the
shoulder or other area available on left side of the roadway.
Trash: In order for our Community to stay beautiful we need
the cooperation of all of our residents and guests. Please take
care not to throw any cigarette butts and/or trash from your car
windows. Also homeowners are responsible for providing
adequate containers for their waste disposal. Please do not put
your trash containers out any sooner than the evening before or
morning of trash pick-up.
Pets: Pets are not permitted in any recreational, common area
or community building. When outdoors, pets must be kept on a
leash. Pet owners must keep home sites clean at all times and
will be responsible for the removal of the feces of their animal.
This would include the yards as this can be a problem for our
staff when they are mowing.

Moving Forward
The Annual Meeting is history! And the dust having settled, it’s time to get back to the
tasks of representing you in any collective matters concerning “The Falls”. The year
2014 saw an era of improving management cooperation with us, the Home Owners, but
there is still much to be settled and accomplished. We need to be aware of our actions
that could result in unfavorable future conditions. Not paying attention to the 15mph
speed limit in The Falls could result in the installation of temporary Speed Bumps or
other undesirable actions that will penalize us all for the violations of a few residents.
Parking on the sidewalks/grass is another damaging habit. No one could be happy
about being assessed for vehicle cracked sidewalks or ruptured sprinkler heads. It just
makes good sense to be considerate. Let’s ALL work together to improve the quality of
life in “The Falls” not restrict it any more than is necessary. We can’t continue to make
progress if we are always taking one step forward and two steps backward.
The Feb 28 HOA MEETING will have a pleasant twist to it. Breakfast!
If you are a PAID UP member or PAY YOUR DUES AT THE DOOR, your
breakfast is free! YOU MUST SHOW YOUR CURRENT HOA MEMBER CARD.
Details will be posted at the clubhouse. The entire 2015 HOA meeting
schedule is posted in the clubhouse also.
