Trash collection is done by Refuse Removal Results (RRR) and occurs on Tuesday and Friday. Please place your trash out for collection no sooner than the night before, and promptly return your bins as soon as possible after pick up. Trash bins are to be stored so as not to be seen from the front of the house

Recycling (and yard trim) is collected by Montgomery County, and occurs on Tuesday.

Pets are permitted under the bylaws. However, no dog houses, cat houses, rabbit or chicken or other hutches or pet houses are permitted outside. There are many dogs in our neighborhood as well as other surrounding neighborhoods. Please encourage your pets to do their business in the neighboring woods. The Association provides pet waste stations with trash bins and waste bags for feces removal. Please use these and clean up after your pets.

Dogs, except service dogs, are required by Montgomery County to be leashed. Many neighbors feel very strongly about this policy and will call the police when they see an unleashed dog.

There are enough spaces for each home to have 2 parking spaces with a few extra at the end of the street. Please be courteous to your neighbors and park only two cars near your home. Extra cars that are parked overnight should be moved to the east end of Derby Ridge Lane or on Grubb Road.

Place a note in your guest’s car with your name and unit number. Guests will be expected to park on Grubb Road when space is limited. The Board and each owner has the right to have unknown or abandoned vehicles towed. Let’s avoid this by being respectful and keeping your neighbors informed of events that will require more parking spaces

The Association documents state that the unit owner must obtain approval from the Board of Directors to change what the exterior of the building/units/property looks like.

What this means is that owners/residents may not do anything to alter the exterior of the building without approval. Since the Association maintains the exterior, this should not cause a problem. Some examples of exterior modifications, which cannot be done without written Board permission, are as follows:

• Painting of exterior of the house
• Addition of skylight
• Installation of storm/screen door
• Addition of deck, or expansion to existing deck
• Installation of pop out greenhouse window
• Replacement of front exterior porch light, if different from the original
• Landscaping changes (bushes, trees, etc.)
• Installation of an attic fan

This list is not all-inclusive, but merely lists some of the requests that the Board has considered. If you make a change without permission the Board could request that you remove the unauthorized improvement at your expense.

Because of the nature of condominium ownership, a right of access has been created (ByLaws, Article VI, Section 3) to allow the Association or its assignees or agents to enter any unit for the purpose of making repairs or performing maintenance for the benefit of the Association. However, the Board of Directors or the management company do not have a set of keys to the units.

Therefore, in the case of a necessary entry to your home, you are expected to cooperate with the management company by being home or arranging to give the management company access to your home.

The Association offers limited bicycle storage in a bike shed for use of the community. Access to a bike storage slot is granted on an as available basis. Contact the management company to determine if there is a slot available. All other bikes are to be stored inside or at the back of the units.

As stated in Article VI, Section 1C of the Bylaws, a copy of the executed lease (and any renewals) must be immediately supplied to the Association at the Management
Company’s office along with the owner’s mailing address, phone number and email
address. The owner must also supply the Management Company with the name and phone numbers of all tenants so that they may be reached if necessary.

Owners are responsible for the actions of their tenants, weather such actions cause
damage to the common elements or the unit or involve a violation of the Declaration, ByLaws or Rules and Regulations of the Condominium. If a tenant incurs a debt to the Association, the owner is responsible and will be billed. If the debt is not paid promptly, the Association may elect to place a lien against the unit.

Collection of that assessment may be pursued in the same manner as any other assessment. If you do lease your unit, please be sure your tenant understands this and that the lease protects you, the unit, and the Association. The lease must specify that the tenants will abide by condominium governing documents, guidelines, resolutions, and rules.
