b. Fallen limbs from trees in the tree lawn (between the street and sidewalk) that are 2 inches in diameter or less should be removed by the homeowner.

a. Please contact the Trustees if you are constructing a building, deck, porch, patio, fence, wall, railing, other structure, or making any other exterior addition or change. Refer to our Indenture on our website and submit the “Approval for Construction” form to the Trustees as required. Note that the Indenture requires you to notify your neighbors of your project so that they have an opportunity to comment to the Trustees; the Indenture specifies that you notify all neighbors whose property is contiguous with your lot AND three neighbors who live across the street from you. Please obtain Trustee approval of these projects before work commences.
b. If you need a dumpster for demolition or construction needs, please notify the Trustees. We would prefer that dumpsters be placed behind houses and/or in driveways, but if that is not possible, Trustees may grant authorization for dumpsters on the street for a short time. Be protective of our streets. The homeowner is responsible for any damage to the streets caused by construction.
c. Portable toilets, if needed for construction needs, should always be behind the house and not visible from the street.

b. When walking your dog in the neighborhood, carry bags with you and please make sure to clean up anything that your dog may leave behind.
