SVHOA Reaffirms Townhome Owner Responsibilities

Recently the SVHOA Board of Directors approved a re-clarification of SVHOA and townhome owner exterior maintenance responsibilities. The policy (procedures) is in four parts as follows: a memo, schedule of HOA and owner responsibilities,
HOA maintenance history spread sheet and list of approved contractors for townhome maintenance.. (A combined document of all four parts is also available.) This is an update of policy (procedures) in effect since July of 2004 and was recommended to the SVHOA Board of Directors by the Southern Village Townhome Committee (SVTC). It is intended to assist owners, sellers, purchasers, representatives, realtors and management staff in understanding the different exterior maintenance responsibilities of the HOA and owners.

Community Watch is successful when we all work together! Below are some important (Orange County) 9-1-1 facts that you need to know to help this work:

  • 911 is the number to call for ANY suspicious activity
  • 911 is the number to call for vandalism, loitering, speeding, illegally parked cars, animal control, disturbance of peace, crimes in progress, etc.
  • 911 is the number to call for Fire & Ambulance
  • 911 calls can be completely anonymous
  • 911 calls are always responded to

Please know that there are ABSOLUTELY no time limits to call 911 to report any type of prior vandalism, theft, or crimes committed.

It is 100% necessary and encouraged by our Chapel Hill Police Department that we make these calls. If the Police do not hear it from us, they will not have the DATA and we will not have the protection.

It’s that simple. Dial 9-1-1. Let’s keep our neighborhood safe for our families, adults, children, pets and property.
