Playground Vandalism

The community playground has recently been vandalized. The damage done to the equipment made the area temporarily unsafe for play. Please note that these issues have been fixed.

If you see any damage to the playground that compromises its safety, please notify the Board or Cedar Management as quickly as possible so it can be repaired.

If you witness someone intentionally damaging the playground or any common areas OR participating in any illegal activity on HOA property, please call the York County Sherriff's Office. This will increase the amount of patrolling that will take place in our neighborhood and therefore act as a crime deterrent.

Community Improvement Efforts Underway

As shared at the Community Kick‐Off Meeting in June, we are beginning a new & exciting era here at Creek’s Edge. With many hardships now behind us, we are moving forward and striving to improve the quality of our neighborhood. The Board of Directors, Committee Members, and Cedar Management look forward to working with all homeowners in an effort to make this possible.

Many improvements have been made throughout the community already, and now we are reaching out to you – individual property owners. We all have investments here at Creek’s Edge and we encourage everyone to keep their homes and yards looking their best so that everyone benefits.

With a new management company on board, we are now moving forward with better and stronger enforcement of rules and guidelines as set forth in the community’s Covenants, Conditions and Restrictions, as well as the By‐Laws. As a homeowner, you should’ve received a copy of both documents at the time of purchasing your home. However, if you do not have a copy, they are now available for download on this website, or you can call Cedar Management and request they be mailed to you.

Cedar Management does a monthly drive through, looking for violations. They will be taking a more active approach, sending more “friendly reminder” letters and violation notices. If you receive one of these and have any questions, please contact Cedar immediately. Two violation inspections have already taken place (June and July). Currently, the number of violations is extensive so they are gradually being addressed, beginning with more major offenses. If you would like to know if your home is in violation, please contact Cedar.

Some common issues include (but are not limited to):

• faded shutters
• home or driveway need to be pressure washed
• driveway or flower beds need to be weeded
• grass is too high
• basketball goal is located in the street
• siding needs to be repaired
• trash bags/cans in driveway
• commercial or recreational vehicles in front of home

Front Entrance

You probably noticed that the front entrance was paved this week! This is exciting news for all of us and will make our travels much more pleasant.

Please rest assured that this is simply a temporary fix and our entrance will be fully restored after the completion of the Hwy 274 project (estimated for late in 2010).

Beautification Day

After several attempts were squashed by poor weather, the Grounds and Beautification Committee was finally able to gather together some able-bodied neighbors and get to work! A group of dedicated homeowners braved the very cold weather on Saturday, January 9th to get some clean-up done in our common areas. The area surrounding the playground is now clear of construction debris and trash, making it much safer and more attractive. The culvert on Covered Bridge and surrounding areas were also cleared of construction debris. Both areas look much nicer and it was all for free! Many thanks to all of the neighbors who worked outside in frigid temperatures to make our first beautification work day a complete success!!!

wow...that's some serious trash!

loaded up and ready to go!

Look at that clean (and safe) play area!!!
