When is the lake/common area curfew in effect?

May 1–Oct 31: midnight–5:00 a.m. • Nov 1–Apr 30: 10:00 p.m.–5:00 a.m. The curfew applies to the 15.5108 acres in Plat A (lake + surrounding common property). (Rules 2025)

Do I need approval for new construction or exterior changes?

Yes. New dwellings, outbuildings, and any improvements requiring a building permit must be approved by the Architectural Committee before work begins. The Committee may charge a reasonable administrative fee and set protective conditions. (Restrictive Covenants, §2)

What is a sanitary district and why consider it?

A sanitary district allows the County to bill/collect a uniform fee (improves compliance), may be mortgage-escrowed, can offer tiered rates for undeveloped lots, impact fees for builders, and access to disaster relief/surplus property. The County collection fee is 5% + $350. (Warren County Brochure, Jan 2019)

When are meeting minutes posted?

Minutes are the legal record. They must include date/place/time/type and attendance, and be posted within 30 days, then approved by motion/second/vote at a subsequent meeting and signed by appropriate Board members. (By-Laws, Art. VI §8)

How much are 2025 dues and what’s the budget?

$50 per lot × 345 lots = $17,250 operating budget. Major lines include insurance, internet, accounting, legal (as needed), collections, capital improvements, and more. Projected FY25 funds: $55,174.92; Money Market Reserve: $26,946.51. (Budget 2025)
