Homeowners’ Association Dues
Reminder: Don’t forget to pay your dues!
Dues are set at $100 per house. This money will be used to maintain the entrances and improve the subdivision. We are encouraging everyone to pay because we all will benefit from these services.

Neighborhood Email Listing
To reduce the time it takes to deliver flyers, we have decided to have a neighborhood email listing. Please send your email address to oltemails@yahoo.com by May 8th. This is a temporary email account that will be closed once emails are collected.

Complaint
Several complaints have been made regarding dog owners leaving their dog’s excrement on other homeowner’s property.

County ordinance states:
Section 4-1-6 Removal of animal wastes.

(a) It shall be unlawful for the owner or keeper of any animal to refuse or fail to immediately remove any feces deposited by such animal upon public sidewalks, public streets, public parks or other public property in Athens-Clarke County.

(b) It shall be unlawful for any person to place, deposit, or permit to be deposited in any unsanitary manner on private property within Athens-Clarke County any animal excrement.

Violation of this ordinance could set you back a maximum of $1,000, so please let's be courteous and bag our dog’s poop.

Welcome Packets
If you are a business owner and would like to contribute something (business cards, coupons or products) to the welcome packets please contact Betty Ryan (Chair of the Welcoming Committee) at louiseryan2001@yahoo.com or Venessa Banks at 227-3953.
