Welcoming Committee- SLCCHOA has officially welcomed over 40 new neighbors to the neighborhood. If you have noticed any new neighbors on your street please let your area directors know and we can welcome them to the neighborhood with a handshake and a pie.

SLCC is a deed restricted community. It is beautiful for many reasons. Our restrictions keep our neighborhood looking clean, well maintained, and beautiful. If you have plans to change the exterior of your home please

fill out and submit a project application. All projects need approval, except for paint. Projects include, but not limited to fences, playhouses, and roofs. Also please remember that boats, R.V’s, or signs on vehicles are not allowed.

A copy of our neighborhood deed restrictions are being delivered either via email or mail. Please look for these documents.

In your deed restrictions you can find what is acceptable for our neighborhood regarding changes to your home, restrictions, ect… If you have any question as to whether a change to your home or a new project is allowed it is always best to fill out the project application form first. This can save you time and money in the long run. All projects and deed restrictions are put on record and kept on file. A project application form is included for your convience.

When your furry friend makes messes, please clean up after them!!!!!

Sidewalk Safety: For your safety- please when walking or running use our sidewalks whenever possible.

Please help keep our neighborhood looking it’s best!!!!

Traffic Watch

We have received numerous complaints of people speeding in our neighborhood. We are going to see law enforcement running radar check points from multiple locations. So please let everyone know to maintain their speed. These tickets are costly and will put points on your licenses. The speed limit in our area is 25 mph and the safety of our residents and children makes it a must to obey the law.

Pet Walking

Remember if you are walking your dogs that it is your responsibility to pick up their waste. The homeowners association has received numerous complaints regarding people walking dogs and not picking up after them. So please be good neighbors

The cold weather and the rain seems to have helped settle the algae concerns that Baywood Lake experienced in November. The city, county, and state representatives recommended continued

observation. The high nutrient state that creates algae indicates that everyone needs to be concerned about dumping chemicals, fertilizers, and debris into everyone's roadways and lawns.

Pinellas County has banned the use of Fertilizing in the Summer from June through September.

Violators may be fined up to $10,000 per day. Fertilizers cannot be applied if the National Weather Service

forecasts heavy rain to occur within 24 hours in Pinellas County. Application of granular fertilizer shall be limited to no more than

4 pounds of nitrogen per 1,000 square per year. Florida soil naturally contains Phosphorus. A soil test is required

before using fertilizers containing phosphorus. Fertilizers must not be applied within 10 feet of any wetland or

water body. No grass clippings, leaves, etc. may enter the street, stormdrain,

or surface water. For questions on disposal of waste call 727.464.7500 To report illegal dumping call 727.464.4425 or email
