Important Announcements!
1. 2024-2025 MEMBERSHIP DUES:
Invoices for 2024-2025 dues and fees were mailed on June 1, 2024, with payments due by July 1, 2024. Unpaid dues result in late fees of $5.00 per month per lot. Members are again reminded that continued nonpayment of dues/fees can result in a lien being placed on your property or a summons to Northumberland County District Court.
2. OVERGROWN LOTS:
The GHPOA Covenants state that unimproved lots are considered overgrown when the grass height exceeds 12 inches. Under a new policy established by the Board in 2015 (see in "Documents" tab above), property owners who repeatedly allow their lots to become excessively overgrown will only receive one written notification at the beginning of the growing season. Continued instances of non-compliance will result in the Board, without any further notification to the owner, having the non-compliant lot mowed at the owner's expense plus a $25.00 administrative fee.
3. CALL 811 BEFORE YOU DIG:
Are you planning an outdoor landscaping project that involves digging? Call 811 before you dig. Knowing where utility lines are buried can help you avoid injury, service outages and costly repairs. Call 811 a few days prior to digging and you'll be routed to your local call center. Tell them where and when you'll be digging, and what type of work you’re doing. Within just a few days, local utility companies will visit your site and mark the location of any underground lines, free of charge. Each utility is marked with a specific color:
-
Red for electric
-
Yellow for natural gas
-
Orange for telecommunications
-
Blue for water
-
Green for sewage
The 811 campaign is operated by the Common Ground Alliance (CGA), an association created to work with the utility industry to prevent damage to underground utility infrastructure and ensure public safety.
4. Resale Certificates:
When selling your property, Virginia law requires that you provide a Property Owners Association Resale Certificate to the Purchaser. Resale Certificates may be ordered by forwarding a check payable to "GHPOA" to:
Greenfield Harbour Property Owners Association, Inc.,
P.O. Box 637, Burgess, VA 22432.
The cost is $50.00 per Certificate. Allow 14 days for delivery.
