Welcome to the Patio Homes Glenmary Phase III -- Updated 10/11/2008

As a new owner or a new tenant, the Board of Directors would like to welcome you to your new home and lifestyle.  As an owner or tenant, we would like you to know that living in a patio home brings on a new and different lifestyle.  Each unit is individually owned, however, there are certain restrictions that each owner or tenant must adhere to because of the unique way in which our buildings were constructed.  We know that at your closing you were overwhelmed with many papers. In order to make things a little easier for you, we have compiled a list of things each owner or tenant should be aware of.

Phase III Patio Homeowner’s Association MAINTENANCE & SERVICES 

FEES:  Each owner is required to pay a monthly maintenance fee of $110.00 to the Association. 

You will receive a bi-monthly invoice which includes charges for monthly maintenance, water & sewer, and trash pick-up service.

The Phase III Patio Homes Association is billed by the Louisville Water Company and then we charge each owner their share of the bill based upon their usage.  Water meters which are located underground near the front door, as well as on the wall by the garage door, are read by a team of residents.

Trash pick-up service is provided to all Phase III Patio Homes Residents by one company.  The trash tote should be stored in your garage and placed at the end of your driveway for pickup early, each Wednesday morning.  Each unit pays a bi-monthly fee of $17.00.

Payments received after the 16th of the month are subject to a $25.00 late fee.

Glenmary Homeowner’s Association:  the Glenmary Homeowners Association requires the payment of an annual fee, currently set at $250.  You will receive a bill from the Glenmary Homeowners Association NOT the PHG Ill Association. Payment should be sent to Glenmary Homeowners Association, not the Phase III Patio Homeowner’s Assn.

INSURANCE:  You are required to obtain a hazard insurance policy on your property. We are not CONDOMINIUMS and there is NO master policy carried by the Association on your property.  Our restrictions do require, however, the Association to be named as a loss payee on your policy. The Association must keep a copy of your policy in our files.

ASSOCIATION MEETINGS:  The Phase III Patio Homeowner’s Board of Directors meets regularly throughout the year.  All residents are invited and are welcome to attend the meeting.  Notice is posted at the kiosk (mail box) for dates, time, and place of each meeting.   For information on dates and times of the Glenmary Homeowner’s Association board meetings and annual meeting, see Glenmaryonline.com.

Should any owner experience a problem with the exterior of their building, the following steps are to be taken:

1. The owner is to have the property inspected to see what is causing the problem.  A minimum of 2 bids is required to estimate the cost of the repair.

2. The owner is to notify the Association P.O. Box 91511, in writing, of the problem and the cost of the repair. If the repair is the responsibility of the Association, the Association will take one of the following steps:

Our reason for the above two (2) choices is to cover emergency problems.

If any owner makes a repair to the exterior of their building without approval from the Association, the owner will be responsible for the cost of the repair and any further problems that may occur as a result of that repair.
