PebbleCreek Communications – October 12, 2020
The PCHOA Board and Rules Compliance Committee have received numerous questions regarding political signs and flags. The Rules for these can be found in PCHOA Rules Sections 8.10 & 8.11
When the political flags were first observed, the Board checked with the PCHOA attorney for a recommendation regarding them. The attorney said these were the same as political signs and should be allowed. The Rules Committee and the Board discussed this, and the Board decided that the following changes would be made:
The Board has adopted the following Rules as per Section 2.3 of the PCHOA Rules:
1. Political flags are now allowed in addition to political signs.
2. The size limit of the flag must not exceed 3 feet x 5 feet.
3. The flags will need to be removed in the same time frame as the signs.
4. These flags cannot be flown from a vertical flagpole. They can only be flown from a flag standard mounted to the house.
5. Aggregate sign size remains the same.
6. There have been no other change to political signs/flags with the exception only one political flag can be flown in addition to the signs.
The Rules Committee will work with the Board to see if this change shall be temporary or permanent. If Homeowners have comments regarding this issue, they are encouraged to submit them to the Rules Committee in writing. These can be turned in at Eagle’s Nest Front Desk.
