News
Road Repairs:
The HOA has received several comments and complaints about the road repairs completed in August by Shelby County, Wiregrass Construction Company, and Kelly Construction Company. Please send all comments and complaints, with photos and specific locations, to [email protected] by Friday August 23. We will consolidate a list of issues and communicate with the contractors for resolution. Complaints without photos will not be included in the consolidated list.
Safety and Security
Concerned Homeowners:
The EPHOA would like to thank all residents for helping us minimize the problems we have experienced with vehicles parked on our streets. Thank you for responding to our notices. Homeowners clearly have strong opinions about the issue of street-parking, both opposed and in favor. Our intent is never to harass homeowners or be interpreted as disrespectful. We are fortunate to have an exceptional neighborhood with fine people and all the EPHOA does is intended to support that environment. We are certainly sympathetic to families with more drivers and vehicles than a garage can support. Our primary concern has always been for the safety and security of Eagle Point, and to that end we have made an effort to address the crowded streets in particular areas of the neighborhood. Everyone has read the statistics and recommendations to discourage street-parking, so we will not repeat them in this communication. However, please be advised that our requests have not been initiated by only a couple of neighbors, but through communication from the Shelby County Sheriff’s Office, Cahaba Valley Fire and EMR, North Shelby Fire District, Shelby County Board of Education, U.S. Postal Service, and Waste Management. In addition to minimizing street-parking, officials want us to be aware that parking on both sides of the street is especially problematic when there is an emergency. Also, the fire departments need your cooperation to keep the areas adjacent to fire hydrants clear. Alabama Code 32-5A-137 states that “no person shall stand, stop, or park within 15 feet of a fire hydrant.” The Sheriff’s Office will issue verbal warning and written citations for violations. As needed, we are proposing to hold a town hall meeting to allow homeowners to discuss street-parking in Eagle Point, with the goal of reaching a consensus that all homeowners can live with and abide by.

Dog Waste
We have had complaints of animal waste not being picked up by owners when on walks in The Landing. While most people are very considerate to pick up their dog’s poop, there are still a couple of people that just do not respect other people’s property.

Our sweet sitter is headed to Tuscaloosa in a couple of weeks, and we need to find a few regulars. Please contact .......
