Happy Spring!

As always, there’s a lot going on this time of year. So, this may be a long one. Please read it all so you are fully updated.

Lyalta Community Club

April 26th - don’t forget the LCC Craft Fair and Bake Sale and the parade of Garage Sales in the Lakes of Muirfield from 9 am to 3 pm. Check Facebook for info on signage and times.

Community Clean-up

May 24th – we will be meeting at the Chapel Rock Presentation Centre at 10 am and splitting into teams to walk the community picking up any winter blown refuse still left in the community. Wheatland County had crews out last week cleaning up and around the W.I.D. canal so there should not be much left there.

Two bins, one for yard waste, and the other for household garbage that we can’t leave for Bluplanet will be available from 10 am to 3:30 pm.

Note: No hazardous waste of chemicals in either bin. Compostable bags only in the yard waste bin, please.

11am – 2pm – Complimentary BBQ courtesy of Lakes of Muirfield Rec Society and Chapel Rock Developments. Come down, drop off your unwanted household junk, or grass clippings, have something to eat and chat with your neighbors!

Chapel Rock Developments

Hopefully you had a chance to visit during the open houses last weekend and had a chance to see what our new developer has in mind for our community. Interest has been very high, so we look forward to seeing work starting in the next few months.

Annual Spring Reminder

Your HOA would like to remind all residents of a few items that we should all be aware of now that the seasons have changed. Please note the below can be found on our website under Architectural Controls.

Landscaping

• Landscaping on all new builds must be complete within the required timeline (1 year after possession). (Arc Control 8.0)
• You must put in an application to the HOA for any outdoor renovation/landscaping (new or repair/upgrades) you are planning to do and receive appropriate approval. (See Architectural Controls Section(s) 8.0, 13.1, 13.6)

General Guidelines

• Homeowners cannot allow their lot to become unsightly due to accumulation of debris, waste, unlicensed motor vehicles, scrap material, weed/grass and/or vegetation growth higher than 12”.
• Homeowners are not permitted to park or store any motor vehicle/object/chattel, in the opinion of the HOA, that is unsightly or adversely affects the amenities of neighbouring properties. (See Architectural Controls Section(s) 7.10, 7.11, 7.17)
• New Building Sites (in Phase 1 and Phase 2) remain the responsibility of Wheatland County. New bylaw officers have been hired to police these sites and increased community visits have been scheduled.

Violation Process and Fine Schedule

• A written letter with a first offence reminder will be emailed to the address in question requesting compliance by a certain date or number of days.
• If a second letter is required, a fine and an Admin fee will be charged. An updated deadline for compliance will be set.

(See Arc Control Violation Fine Schedule 2.12.24 available on TownSQ.)

Golf Course

• This is a reminder that the Golf Course and all lands within are PRIVATE PROPERTY. You are NOT allowed to enter their premises without approval from the owners. This includes walking your dog on course property, using the course without consent or payment, etc. These acts could be considered trespassing and may be reported to the appropriate authorities.

Please be courteous and respectful of each other as we are all neighbours living in the same wonderful community. These policies will and can be enforced to ensure compliance. Thank you and enjoy your Spring and Summer!
