The  covenants  and  bylaws  of  the  Valley  View  POA  are  in  place  to  preserve  property  values  in  our

www.valleyviewestatespoa.com.  

The purpose of this listing is to inform residents of common complaints the POA Board has received during the 

past year and to help bring awareness to POA members about our covenants. Please be advised the listing is 

not inclusive of all restrictions in the neighborhood. 

1. Parking on streets.  Residents should park vehicles in their driveways or garage and not on the street. 

This is especially dangerous during nighttime hours.  The POA Board gives temporary exceptions for 

holidays, group meetings, etc.  (Article VIII, sections 3 & 5) 

2. Parking on grass and sidewalks.  At no time should vehicles be parked on residence lawns or

sections 3 & 5) 

3. Parking of Trailers and RV’s.  Any type of trailer (travel, utility, etc.) and RV’s may not be permanently

not left in neighborhood yards. Constant loud barking dogs or other types of loud noise should be 

controlled to stop possible annoyance or nuisance to neighbors. (Article IX & X) 

6. SHEDS. Prior to building or buying any type of shed or outside storage, the plans MUST be approved by

7. New Business

a. Members were reminded to stay informed by visiting the VVPOA website

http://valleyviewestatespoa.com and the new VVPOA Facebook Group.

b. Rose Court Discussion: Rose Court is not included as part of Valley View POA. This was

realized by the current board. After research and much discussion an attorney was

consulted and confirmation was given that the last revision of covenants in around 2008

excluded Rose Court.

i. The Valley View POA Board sent notice, which was drafted by an attorney, telling

property owners effective 12/31/2015 Valley View POA will no longer collect

dues from Rose Court property owners.

c. Sewer System is legally owned by Washington County Property Owners Improvement

District No. 5 (WCPO District No. 5) and is currently managed by Joe Stewart, his wife

and his father-in-law.

i. Rose Court no longer being part of VVPOA does not have anything to do with the

sewer district.

d. Building a park is in research and Board will evaluate land options. Board hopes a

member will come forward and donate a lot of land for the park.

e. Club House Parkway bollard lights are damaged. Board will research options.

f. Sprinkler system in medians has been winterized.

g. Members voiced concerns about property owners blowing grass clippings in the street.

Board does not believe this is addressed in covenants. Leaves are not addressed in

covenants either.

h. Red Door took questions regarding their scope of work: Do drive through one time per

week, will not immediately issue fines and will try first to open up lines of

communication to resolve problems. Red Door needs members contact information.

VVPOA does not want neighbors fining neighbors for violations, hence Red Door being

retained.

i. A member voiced concerns that fencing her yard to match covenants was too expensive

(around the 7th hole, approx. $10,000). Member wants board to consider wood fencing

on properties backed up to the golf course. While the board realizes it is a costly

expense, the board cannot make the exception as the covenants are in place for the

benefit of the entire community.

j. Members voiced concerns regarding the following:

i. Tall grass on Hook Lane. (Note: This is likely golf course property.)

ii. Materials being put into homes by RC, not cleaning up properties as they’re being

built.

1. Solar lights were researched and are too expensive.

vi. Members thanked the board for serving.

vii. Frisco (pavement) is still damaged, was repaired by the City of Farmington and
