Discussion: · County /MDE Updates— The HOA has requested all documentations
for the Water Quality Facility (located on Logan Lane), since 2003. The
County Offices- DPW has not and cannot provide any such documentation. The
objective for the requested documentation has been to realize the maintenance
and financial obligations of this facility in its present and future state.
The HOA, Inc. now wishes to be released of this obligation pertaining the
facility on Logan Lane. Through the discussion of this process and
the direction of the meeting guests, the HOA BOD’s will request a meeting
with the County Commissioners to appeal the WWHOA’s obligation associated
with the Logan facility. The BOD’s stressed to the guests present that WWHOA
has, in good faith and effort, attempted to fulfill these responsibilities
.All BOD need to gather documents to support justification to the
commissioners. · Stewart Associates updates—50+ homes Mike
Vaughan attended meeting with information that the Principio Business park is
continuing on schedule, as is their water supply. A count is needed for all
homes that may be interested in water supply. This count is to be completed
September. Once this count is done a general plan can be completed outlining
the cost associated with the delivery. The DPW has conveyed an interest in
assisting in the process if so needed or desired. **No information on county
connection or interest with WW water issues; will have to be explored** |

is resolute by the HOA BOD’s that NO above ground pools, permanent or
temporary, are allowable. Only
small kiddy pools that are emptied daily may be used. See County information
below for safety standards. The
liability and responsibility remain with the homeowner. Pool definition: does not exist, the county considers it an accessory structure. Permanent Construction: Any structure occupying a site for more
than 180 days per year (from May 1 to Sept. 30 = 153 days) Swimming pools:
(section 49. Accessory Buildings and Uses page. 73) Accessory swimming pools may occupy a rear or side yard provided they are not located closer than ten feet to a rear or side lot line. A walk space at least six feet wide shall be provided between pool walls and protective fences or barrier walls. All in-ground pools shall be enclosed by a fence approved by the Cecil County building inspector which shall be at least four feet in height. Swimming pools may occupy a front yard of waterfront lots. (I was verbally told they can not be located in the forest retention areas.) |
