-The rules concerning dogs are there and should be enforced only after the Board‘s approval and at the end any decision will be at the Board’s discretion.
New Business:
-The board has approved new rules concerning dogs.
New rules:
• Pets with current Voice and Sight tags, issued by the city of Boulder, are permitted on common ground
without a leash, provided the dog's owner maintains voice and sight control at all times. Pets without valid
tags must remain on leash at all times when on common grounds.
• To maintain a clean, attractive, and safe courtyard for all residents, the courtyard is
not to be used as a toilet by any pets. Even when owners clean up after their pets, there
is a detrimental effect on the landscaping. Pet owners should avoid accidents in the
courtyard by walking their pets elsewhere before bringing them into the courtyard.
• Pets may be walked and may relieve themselves in outdoor common areas outside of
the courtyard provided no waste is left behind. Failure to clean up after a pet will always
be an offense subject to fines.
• To establish a means for addressing the noise nuisance caused by excessive barking,
barking nuisance will be defined as barking that continues for more than 10 minutes,
more than three times per day, more than three days within the course of a week.
Action will be taken after one or more residents complain of excessive noise, and the
owner or another adjacent neighbor verifies that the barking is indeed a nuisance.
Because many animals require a period of adjustment to a new environment, a thirty
day grace period will be in effect for new residents. Each individual violation must meet all
the criteria for a barking nuisance, such that no owner can be penalized for more than one
violation per week.
The HOA will respond to any noise complaint by first working with the residents involved
to solve the problem without penalty, as there are many training tools to help with excessive
barking. If an owner fails to take recommended steps to mitigate excessive barking, fines may
be assessed.
-The Flood premium insurance is in September but we are still in the 100 years flooding area. We’ve
checked with the new map of the City of Boulder and unfortunately we are still under.
-Sharon’s use of closet has been approved by the board.
-An inquire will be done to know if we are allowed to have a fire pit next to the pool. Mike will ask the fire Marshall.
-Rachel would love love a hot tub, please contact her if you are also interested.
