Thanks for the comments. Please keep them coming. If you attended last night's Board meeting, you know that we had a very good discussion. Please keep watching for another homeowner's open forum on parking in July. Specific announcement will follow.
Regarding recent comments:
I want to thoroughly disabuse everyone from the idea that "a GARAGE is our personal space and that it should not be dictated what we can and can not do with it." When we bought at Copper Hill we all agreed to abide by the CCRs , and they are quite explicit in stating that a garage is for parking vehicles and only that use. Abiding by the CCRs is one reason many people gravitate towards a gated condominium community, where there are rules and people expect that all residents will live by those rules. We have many freedoms, but the freedom to ignore the rules we agreed to is not one of them. There should be no resident who "simply cannot use the garage" unless all of that person's vehicles are demonstrably too large for the garage (then you have to wonder why a person with those kind of vehicles would choose to buy in a condo community where the garage size is well known).
In my view, the only "restriction" (and it's not "heavy handed") is that everyone actually has to use their garage as intended and as spelled out in the CCRs. The rules in that regard are not new. Why is that a "restriction"?
As said before, please detail an alternate plan for insuring that everyone uses their garages as required in the CCRs that is objective, easily monitored and enforced, doesn't require the Board to be parking police and is evenly applied to all. Please. Where are your ideas? Just saying "no" doesn't add to the discussion or our overall knowledge.
There was a recent comment that began, "Hi, I agree with Umang....." but there was no identification on the comment. Every comment that has an ID (Peachtree account 036-XXXX) will be posted. When that comment is resent with ID, it will be posted.

Hello!
ReplyDeleteWith regards to the proposed parking rules...I think that a guest pass during the day will be difficult with birthdays, holidays, etc which often bring more than one visitor car in. For example, if I am throwing a birthday dinner for my Mother, I would be beyond stressed if we had to figure out how to get everybody here in one car.
I fully support a guest pass requirement for all overnight night parking, with a limit of one pass per home. That is a great idea. I also have zero problem registering my cars with the HOA.
With regards to the Spa: Everytime I hear the spa alarm go off...there is a child standing right in front of it. Is there anyway to move the emergency stop out of the reach of small children? Or possilbly put a clear plastic flip lid over it? Another idea would be to change the basic "start" button to a timer switch..just like the light switches in the bathroom? Maybe people are trying to save energy and want to turn off the jets and can't find a way to do it, so they hit the emergency button. With the timer switch, they could easily turn off the jets without shutting them down.
