Dear Homeowners,

We would like to provide an update regarding the community gate operations and the vote concerning 24/7 gate closure.

As previously communicated, a community vote on whether to keep the gates closed 24/7 was being planned. However, that process has been temporarily paused due to the current condition of the gate system. As you are aware, one side of the gate was damaged after being struck by a homeowner, and although we were initially under the impression that the repair had been completed, it became clear once the gate was returned to normal operation that the issue is more extensive than originally anticipated.

Until the gate is fully repaired and operating reliably, moving forward with a community-wide vote would not be appropriate.

In the interim, the decision to close one side of the gate during the evening is a temporary operational measure intended to provide some level of controlled access while accommodating the current limitations of the damaged gate. We understand this arrangement may not be ideal and appreciate the community’s patience as repairs are addressed.

To ensure clarity for all homeowners, any decision regarding permanent 24/7 gate closure will be made by the community as a whole through a formal vote process. The decision will not be based solely on individual requests or informal discussions. All homeowners in good standing will be provided the opportunity to participate before any long-term operational change is implemented.

As part of that future discussion, the community will need to consider both the potential benefits and limitations of keeping the gates closed at all times, particularly since the neighborhood is not gated on all sides.

Potential Benefits of 24/7 Gate Closure:

• Increased sense of security and controlled access

• May help deter through-traffic

• Added privacy for residents

Potential Limitations:

• Reduced effectiveness, as the community remains accessible from non-gated entry points.

• Increased wear, maintenance needs, and associated costs.

• Potential inconvenience for residents, guests, and service providers, and traffic backup.

• Risk of operational issues, which can restrict access entirely when failures occur.

We will continue to provide updates as additional information regarding repairs becomes available.

Thank you for your patience.

Dear Residents,

In an effort to support a well-maintained, consistent, and welcoming neighborhood, the Piedmont Lake HOA is increasing enforcement of our By-Laws and Covenants, Conditions & Restrictions (CC&Rs). Homeowners are reminded to remain in compliance, especially in the following areas:

1. Lawn and Property Maintenance

Yards must be kept in good condition through regular mowing, edging, weeding, and pruning of shrubs or trees. Trash, debris, and materials should not be stored along fence lines or in plain view.

2. Overnight Street Parking

Overnight parking on the street is strictly prohibited. This ensures clear access for emergency and service vehicles and helps preserve the overall appearance of the neighborhood.

If your household has more vehicles than can fit in your driveway, limited overflow parking is available at the clubhouse. Please contact the HOA to confirm availability and usage guidelines.

3. ACC Approval Required for Exterior Changes

All fencing, exterior painting, or structural/exterior modifications or additions (such as decks, patios, sheds, driveways, or landscaping changes) must be approved in writing by the Architectural Control Committee (ACC) before work begins.

This process is in place to protect property values and ensure consistency with the community’s architectural standards. The ACC application form is available on our website or by request.

We thank the many residents who continue to uphold our community standards and contribute to the beauty and integrity of Piedmont Lake. If you need assistance, clarification, or support in submitting an ACC request or complying with any of the above items, please don’t hesitate to contact us.

We will be holding a community workday on May 17th. We are discussing several light projects to better improve and beautify our community, while attempting to reduce impact to our budget, and in turn, keeping our dues low. Please stay tuned for more information.

This is a Tentative Date, subject to possible change

Dear Homeowners,

We hope this letter finds you well. As we step into 2025, we want to express our sincere appreciation
