Rules, Regulations and Enforcement Procedures for Unit Owners, Tenants, and Guests

This information is being provided as a community guide for association members, their tenants, and guests.  The association’s rules, regulations and enforcement procedures have been established to ensure and maintain the quality of life and protect property values in the Perkiomen Crossing Community.

Your Primary responsibilities to your neighbors are:

1.       To become thoroughly familiar with the rules and regulations

2.       To adhere strictly to them

3.       To see that family and guests do the same.

No rules can ever take the place of common courtesy and consideration.  These rules are intended to promote a harmonious and pleasant living environment.  Your anticipated cooperation and assistance is always appreciated.

 

RULES AND REGULATIONS

 

Statement of Purpose:  The role of the homeowners association, of which every owner is a member, is not only to own and manage the open space, but also to conserve and enhance the resources of the entire community.  The association accomplishes these functions in a variety of ways, one of which is establishing reasonable rules and regulations as stated in Article VI and IX of the Declaration.  The association, through the board of directors, also has the power to establish committees, like the architectural review committee, and the responsibility of enforcing all of the association’s documents.

 

GENERAL RULES

ABOVE GROUND POOLS

Children’s’ inflatable pools are permitted on private lots.  Owners are responsible to repair any lawn damage caused by them.

Hot tubs are permitted on decks provided they are not higher than the railing, and on enclosed patios.

SOLAR PANELS (updated 2018)

 

I. Introduction 

Article 8 of the Perkiomen Crossing Declarations of Covenants, Easements, and Restrictions requires that each homeowner maintain the exterior appearance of their property in a manner that upholds the quality of our neighborhood. These declarations are to protect every homeowner’s property value by ensuring a well kept and desirable place to live. These regulations include aesthetics involving equipment or devices added to an owner’s home. 

The goal of saving energy has resulted in increased interest in the installation and use of solar energy devices and equipment. The Association is responsible to ensure that such equipment is reasonably controlled as to the appearance and location of installation, to protect neighbors and the community from unsightly equipment and/or installation. Accordingly, the purpose of these rules about solar energy devices and equipment is to reasonably control use and location to protect home values and aesthetics in the community, without preventing their use. 

II. Policy 

These rules, regulations and guidelines apply to all solar energy devices including, without limitation, solar panels and their associated components, or other solar energy devices, which due to their installation and use location are, or may become visible from neighboring properties or common areas. 

1. APPROVAL OF INSTALLATIONS 

a) Detailed plans for installation and placement of any solar panel/energy device must be 

submitted as an Architectural Request to the Association for review and written approval from the Association prior to such installation. (See section VI for submittal of installation plans.) 

b) An illustrated brochure or artist rendering of the proposed system, which indicates the materials to be used, and drawings showing the location and number of collectors, the attachment to the roof structure, and the location of the exterior components shall be submitted with the Architectural Request 

c) Permits may be required for the installation of such device and related equipment. The 

Association strongly suggest that the homeowner use an installer that is a licensed solar equipment contractor with the appropriate contractor’s license. The homeowner is entirely and solely responsible for knowing what permits may be required, and obtaining any such permits before installation begins. 

d) Homeowners are urged to check with their contractor or insurance company prior to 

installation of device for how such installation may impact their roof warranty or other aspects of their home. Neither the board of directors nor the Association is liable to the homeowner from roof damage or for effects to roof warranties. The Association and its board of directors have no expertise or special knowledge regarding such systems and therefore the Association’s approval for installation of such devices or system is not a representation that the system chosen by the homeowner is safe to use or is compatible with the homeowner’s roof. The homeowner assumes all risks and bears all risks regarding installation and use of such a system. 

2. TYPES 

a) Only commercial or professional solar systems are allowed. b) Only roof mounted solar panels are permitted. c) Only AC systems will be approved due to safety concerns. 

3. LOCATION/PLACEMENT 

a) Roof mounted solar panels must be installed so that the panes are flush mounted and 

centered on the roof. b) Solar panels should be mounted directly to the roof deck. Solar units must not break the 

roof ridgeline. c) The solar panels, piping or any other exposed part of the installation must not be higher 

than the roof peak. The panels must meet building and fire codes. 

4. CONSTRUCTION/FINISH 

a) All roof mounted equipment (excluding the face of the solar panels) must be black, dark 

brown, or bronze. This includes all related equipment. b) All exterior plumbing lines must be run along the corner edge of the home. 

5.MAINTENANCE 

a) Homeowners will make sure that all surfaces of such devices and equipment, whether painted or 

colored materials, are properly and timely maintained to prevent peeling and cracking of paint or loss of coloration or other deterioration to the point where the equipment becomes unsightly and/or not within the aesthetic standards of the community. 

6. GENERAL REQUIREMENTS 

a) The system must be installed to rules, regulations, and ordinances. b) No system installation may threaten public health or safety. c) Each system must be maintained in good repair and working order. If damaged, the 

system must be repaired within 30 days after damage occurs. d) No system can be installed until plans have been submitted and approved. 

III. Rule Enforceability 

If any portion of this rule is determined to be legally unenforceable, it shall not negate the enforceability of the remaining portions of the rule. 

IV. Submittal of installation plans 

1) The application of the plans for installation (see section 1.) must be forwarded to 

the property management company. 2) The Board of Directors (BOD) will review the plans at the next scheduled BOD 

meeting. Then the BOD will provide written notice to the homeowner, one of the following results: 

a. Approval of the plans that were submitted. b. Rejection of the plans, or c. Request for further information. 

Dated and adopted by the Board of Directors this the 8th day of May 2018.

·         The name and address of the owner must be posted on the equipment.  This to allow the owner to be contacted should the equipment need repair or for any other reason that may become necessary.

·         The goals are for the use of the general population, not just the owners

·         If vehicles are parked in the designated spaces, the goals cannot be used.

·         People using the goals should be considerate of the residents of the surrounding area. Therefore, play is to be limited to late morning through early evening/dusk.

·         Any dispute must be settled among the residents.  The association is not responsible for people’s behavior.

·         The association assumes no responsibility for any damages or injuries due to the use of the basketball goals.
