If you are planning any landscaping, deck or fence additions, make sure they are not in violation of association bylaws. Please, when planning your changes, make sure they will not be in violation of the ELHOA by-laws, articles, and amendments. The lots bordering, facing, abutting the lakes in particular, have several restrictions on what a homeowner can do on their property. This includes fencing restrictions, plant height, obstructing the view of your neighbors, outbuildings, and other restrictions. If you are not sure that what you would like to do is within the by-laws and amendments, please check the by-laws and amendments. If you do not have copies, please contact a trustee. Following are a few of the restrictions. Any fence constructed must be of white vinyl or wood, painted white. Cyclone fences are not permitted. Lake lots may construct a fence, but it must be no wider than the sides of the house and extend no more than 20 feet to the rear of the house. Lake lots are not permitted auxiliary structures. Any trees, plants, shrubs on lake lots must be low growing and maintained to not interfere with the sight lines of other dwellings. Lake lots shall not change the contour of the lake or fill in any portion of the lake. The lot owner and possibly the association could face serious legal ramifications if this rule is violated. Besides adding beauty and recreation to our association, the lakes also serve as catch basins for water run-off from the streets and house gutters. The lakes are currently very high due to last year's precipitation. Reducing the volume of our lakes could cause flooding of areas down-stream from us. If you are planning to add a deck, you must get a permit from Montville Township. Montville has strict guidelines and they will make you start over if you do not have a permit. The deck must also meet zoning requirements such as rear setback guidelines. Please, for your own protection, make sure you are doing your improvements properly. No one wants to be told what they cannot do on their own property. However, when you live in an association, you give up some of your rights for the benefit of all. This is how we will keep our community healthy, happy, and thriving. |
