Pet ownership is a privilege that is given to homeowners via the condominium documents. All pets (dogs and cats)
must be pre-approved by the Board of Trustees prior to their living at All dog owners must pick up (pooper scooper) after their dog. The area surrounding the pool and Clubhouse is not an area where dogs may relieve themselves. The area around the old landfill and behind the pump station building is ideal for exercising your dog. Failure to abide by the pet ownership rules, especially the roaming cat or dog and clean up rules, may result in the loss of pet privileges. |
