Snow Removal Courtesy
Please be mindful of your neighbors and other drivers during inclement weather. When there is snowfall, remember the following:
• Move basketball hoops from the road right-of-way and / or streets.
• Keep roads and sidewalks clear of sleds, skateboards, bikes, and other toys.
• Minimize parking on road shoulders to allow the plows to clear the roads more effectively. Utilize driveways and parking pads first!
• Anything in the road right of way and / or street is not the liability of LLA, this includes landscaping, retaining walls, toys, cars, etc.
• Anything along a Snow Emergency Route can and will be towed to allow for adequate plowing. Please reference January’ s LakeTalk for a list of Snow Emergency Routes,( page 6, Winter Weather Plan).
• Don’ t forget there are overflow parking areas at Summerfield, Westwinds and Coldstream pools for extra vehicles during snow storms.
Mailbox Manners
When retrieving your mail from grouped mailbox areas, please be courteous and prompt in retrieving mail and moving your vehicle so other residents can access the area.
Storage of Items
It is the responsibility of every homeowner to prevent the development of any unclean, unsightly or unkempt conditions of buildings or grounds in order to maintain the beauty of the neighborhood.
