Current Board Members: Paul Pulley, HOA Board President.............................pwptcp-hghoa@yahoo.com Ken Miller, Vice-President............................................ kmiller18@austin.rr.com Michael Davolt, Treasurer.................................................. madavolt@gmail.com Cella Lancaster, Secretary (non-voting).....................cellalancaster@hotmail.com One of the concerns often expressed by residents to the Board regarding the appearance of the neighborhood is the condition of the wooden fencing belonging to individual homeowners. The HOA is responsible for the fencing along Creek Bend and the first section of Hidden Glen Drive and had those fences power washed and stained recently. But many homeowners have not done anything to their fences since their home was built. The HOA Rules require that fences be maintained in “good repair.” The ARC Guidelines contain construction requirements and describe the palette of available colors but do not explicitly state what is considered good repair. Physical damage, such as broken or missing pickets, is generally acknowledged and is therefore readily enforceable; however, fences that have been weathered or stained by sprinkler systems are more subjective regarding acceptability. The good news is that staining one’s fence not only enhances its appearance but increases its longevity, making it a wise investment. Most good stains will add at least another five years to the fence’s lifespan and are much more cost effective than replacing the fence in its entirety. Pricing is generally around $1 per linear foot plus materials. If you have not stained your fence, please consider doing so, not only to improve the aesthetic value of your own home but that of the entire community. Copyright © 2011 Peel, Inc.
