Hello again! At the October 21, 2021 meeting, the Board approved the 2021 Rules and Regulations changes. The major changes, aside from the Trash rules addressed in the letter that was mailed out, are as follows:

Ivy, mint, and other invasive ground covering plants as well as vegetables and fruit trees are not permitted within the Meadows.

When replacing exterior light fixtures, the new fixture must be a coach/carriage style of lamp, in either brass, white, or black, and the size and color should conform as closely as possible to others in the area.

Any firework which explodes, emits a flame, or sparks higher than 12 feet, or performs as a projectile, is prohibited by the Fairfax County Fire Prevention Code. As such, no fireworks that explode, emit a flame, or spark higher than 12 feet, or perform as a projectile, may be set off within The Meadows.

All previously issued parking stickers and hang tags must be returned to The Meadows office to avoid a replacement charge of $50 per sticker/hang tag. This includes permits issued to previous Tenants or for cars that have been sold. There will be no fee for a new sticker if the old sticker is returned to The Meadows office (shredded pieces accepted).

CONSERVE WATER: WATER CONSUMPTION HAS A DIRECT IMPACT ON OUR ASSESSMENTS AND THE ENVIRONMENT!

To avoid receiving violations for any rules within the Meadows Rules and Regulations, we encourage residents (Co-owners and renters) to contact the office so that you may receive a copy (paper and electronic copies available) of the current Rules.

I hope you all are taking some time to enjoy this lovely weather!
