Landscaping Guidelines

All the Pebble Creek grounds are known as the “common area” and are owned by the Association. If we are all to share in the enjoyment of the common area, we must have rules to prevent improper and unsightly use of it.

1. Gardening with perennials, ground covers and annuals is encouraged. Please don’t plant invasives. The owner who puts in new plants is responsible for their continued upkeep. This responsibility is transferred to subsequent owners or the plants should be removed. Because of underground gas lines, etc, any major project needs to be approved by the Board of Directors. Trees and shrubs should not be planted without approval by the Board of Directors.

2. Firewood may not be stacked so that it is in direct contact with the ground or the decks.Firewood should be stored raised several inches above the ground or deck to allow for air circulation. The firewood should be covered to protect from rain. Firewood should not be stored on front decks.

3. No building or structure of a permanent or temporary nature shall be placed on any of the common property at any time. This includes trailers, tents, barns, storage sheds, treehouses or other similar structure.

4. Unit owners may not place “FOR SALE”, “FOR RENT” or other commercial signs in the common area or on individual units without the written permission of the Board of Directors.

5. Nothing should be placed, hung or displayed in any manner on the front of the units, the decks, or elsewhere that is unsightly or inappropriate.

6. No structural, painting or other changes affecting the exterior of a unit may be made without the express approval of the Board of Directors.
