Top 10 Ways to be a Great BHHCA Member
(and keep on your neighbor's good side)

1.

Do Not park your car on the Street.  Parking any place other than your garage or driveway is not allowed according to the BHHCA Declaration of Covenants, Conditions and Restrictions. 

 

2. Do Not block the sidewalks with parked cars.  You'll be much loved by neighborhood moms with strollers.  Besides, it's illegal!

 

3. Keep your dog(s) in a fenced yard or on a leash.  Jefferson County has a leash law.  91.002  RESTRAINT REQUIRED "All animals shall be kept under restraint at all times as defined in this ordinance, and any deviation or violation thereof is strictly prohibited."  You can see the law  here.  If you have a complaint about a pet, contact any Board Member.  You can also call Jefferson County Complaints and Stray Animal Pickup at 502-363-6609.  Also, If you walk your dog(s), clean up after your dog(s) during neighborhood walks.  Your dog might want to leave a gift, but it isn’t the type your neighbors want.
4. Keep your front yard free of toys, swimming pools and bicycles.  Curb appeal means a great deal to prospective home buyers in our subdivision.  Nobody wants to live next door to a daily yard sale.

 

5. Pay your BHHCA dues on time, by April 30th.  Nobody likes to be hassled over money or have to hassle someone over it.  Your dues pay for street lights, the entrance signs, as well as the maintenance of common areas.

 

6. Maintain you home and yard.  Tall grass and weeds encourage insects and rodents to homes.  According to BHHCA Declarations, lawn maintenance is required and can be subcontracted.  In other words, if you don't cut your grass, the BHHCA will have it done for you at your cost.

 

7. Get to know your Neighbor's.  Watch out for your neighbors house. Know when they will be out of town.  Watch out for any strange activity going on in the subdivision.  We can all watch out for each other and make this a safer place to live.

 

8. Get to know your Board Members.  Most problems can be handled among neighbors,  the BHHCA doesn't have to use heavy-handed tactics to resolve a dispute.  It's always better when you work it out yourself.  If you can't resolve an issue with your neighbor, contact any Board Member to help out.

 

9. Don't build anything without consulting the BHHCA.  Many homeowners have structures and other "improvements" that violate the Declarations.  This can be avoided if people ask before they build.  Nobody wants to see a two-story barn next door.

 

10. Read the BHHCA Declarations and By-Laws.  You can't follow the rules unless you know what they are. They are on this web site.
