When parking in the street for any length of time, be considerate of other residents. Driveways were built to park cars in and parking on the street blocking or making it difficult for another resident to get out of their driveway is rude and inconsiderate. If you are having your guest park on the street, be a considerate neighbor and make sure they are not blocking another driveway or parked in an unsafe manner. When parked in your driveway be considerate of those walking on the sidewalk. Sidewalks should always be clear of vehicle. Pedestrians, especially those with small children, needing to walk around the car near the street is unsafe. Be considerate.

The HOA board would like to thank everyone that came out for today's meeting. For those that could not attend, quorum was not met, therefore no business was allowed to take place. A meeting on January 12th at 3 PM. Harrison Co Discovery Center will be held. A quorum of 61 will still be needed to amend the covenants, however only 30 members are needed to conduct elections for board officers. To clarify a false posting on Facebook, all current board members ARE proper owners.

The HOA has received a couple complaints about dogs being in a yard unrestrained. Reminder that it is a policy of the HOA that all dogs must be contained or on a leash at all times. However, if you are walking and a dog attacks you then that is NOT an HOA issue, that is a civil issue that you must pursue with the pets owner. If you see an animal roaming through the neighborhood and do not know the owner, call the Harrison County Animal Control. If you know who the owner is, please notify them that their pet is loose. If you contact the owner and still see the pet loose, then contact the HOA and formally complain. 

Summit Springs neighborhood has many children as our residents. When driving through the neighborhood, please keep your speed to a minimum. Speed should be no more than 20 mph as children are often playing in the street. Parents, please remind your children it is safest to play and ride bicycles/scooters on the sidewalk and not in the street. Many have been observed riding in the middle of the street which poses a danger for not only the child but the motorist as well. If your child chooses to ride in the street, please have them ride close to the curb. We do not want to have any accidents or worse in the neighborhood. Your cooperation is greatly appreciated!!
