Hi neighbors,
I'm reaching out to see if anyone else has been receiving frequent letters from the Sandcreek HOA. We've been getting one almost every week for what feels like minor or questionable issues.
 
We always keep our yard clean and well-maintained, and we do our best to follow the guidelines. But at this point, it's starting to feel like we're being singled out.
 
One of the most recent notices was about parking in the grass, which caught us off guard.
 
Has anyone else experienced something similar lately? Just trying to understand if this is happening to others or if we're being unfairly targeted.
 
Thanks for any insight!

sandykw : So was your car parked off the street but in the grass in front of your home? On the grass beside your driveway? Either way, I don't think that's a particularly good look for the neighborhood, so I would say that one might be justified. Emoticon

Same, I don't think it's a good look either.
We park straight on the drive way. Don't want to ruin the grass or break the pavers, which is why I'm so confused.

Me too! Right by the church.

sandykw : Then I would think they would have to send you pics to clarify what they are referring to. Maybe they sent the notice to the wrong address? Hmmm.

No photo this time. A couple of weeks ago, they sent one when it was about my climbing roses hanging off the trellis. Which looked so beautiful lol, But not this time.SandyKnee :

That seems like an unusual one. Hanging off in what way?

I'm in the very SE corner of Sand Creek, I don't know what the section is called. I received a letter from them about two months ago complaining about "clutter". My yard is pretty much immaculate, so I have no idea whatsoever what they were referring to. My next door neighbor received the same letter. I ignored it. It's not my job to figure out what the hell they're talking about.

Ticagro :
Agree.
I'm guessing we got new board members. Lived here awhile and these are the first I've gotten in Sand Creek.
My neighbor across the street received one for grass. It's where they put their Beryl pile. That area doesn't get much sun. Their yard guy put grass but it's already dying.

If climbing roses were knocked off a trellis by some of the nasty weather we've had, I would give that a pass for a reasonable time, my goodness. "Clutter" is subjective - one person's eye-sore clutter is another person's choice for Garden of the Month. But parking on the grass, have to agree that's justified.

We got one awhile back for hubby doing his own oil change on his car. He prefers to do it himself. Notice said no major auto repair mind you it was only an hour tops.

Sorry to hear you feel you're getting singled out. We had a few letters too while living in Sand Creek that we felt were head scratchers. Another way to look at it is, at least they're monitoring. That's what we pay them to do. They may have no bite, but they're watching and trying. We live in Foster's Mill now and have neighbors that leave junk on the driveway 24/7. Toys, tools, lumber, ladders, coolers, throw away items, all for everyone to see every day. Nothing ever gets garaged or put in back yard. A complete eyesore. If saying that makes me a Karen, then so be it. I don't think we get monitored over here and I wish we were.
