Stone Creek Yard Sign Reminder
08/15/2023
Hello-
This is a reminder of Rule II.4 which states: “No signs, banners, or stickers shall be erected or maintained upon any Lot, except for (i) one (1) “For Sale” or “For Rent” sign no larger than 12 square feet; (ii) signs required by legal proceedings; (iii) temporary signs (less than 48 hours); and (iv) home alarm signs, except home alarm signs can only be affixed to a front railing or a front window.”
There are several yard and flowerbed signs for home alarm systems, decorative purposes, etc. throughout Stone Creek Canyon that need to be removed from the ground and affixed to railings or windows instead. If not removed from the grounds upon our next inspection, a formal notice of violation will be posted to each unit where staked signs are still present.
Thank you.

Stone Creek Canyon Homeowner Attestation - Tenant Provisions

Attached you'll find a notice with this attestation as well as the requested documents pertaining to the Stone Creek Canyon unit(s) that you own. Please review the attached notice as soon as possible and return the required forms by the deadline provided therein (8/25/2023).

Association Dues Payment Options
06/22/2023
Dear Owners,
We have been made aware of some changes to the payment processing platform within our business software, AppFolio. They have let us know that they will be implementing a change to the processing of eCheck (ACH) payments. Beginning July 31, 2023, they will no longer waive the resident eCheck transaction fee. This means that payments made through your online portal by using your bank’s routing and account numbers will now be charged a processing fee. This makes the fee breakdown for online payments as follows:
Credit Card: 3.49% of total transaction amount
Debit Card: $9.99 per transaction
eCheck (ACH): $2.49 per transaction
To avoid these fees, you are welcome to bring or mail a check, cashier’s check, or money order to our office located at 4655 S 1900 W Ste 6 in Roy. Another option is to set up bill pay through your bank. This will allow your bank to automatically send us a check every month while avoiding the eCheck fee AppFolio would apply to electronically process your checks. If you go this route, just provide our office address to your bank, and let them know to include your property address on the checks so we can apply the funds appropriately once we receive them.
If you have any questions about this change, please reach out to our office at (801) 728-0454 or info@apmutah.com.
Thank you.

important insurance information - flood insurance
04/10/2023
Hello Residents,
It seems we are finally reaching Spring! With this, however, come the worries of flooding and damage. Due to the record-breaking amount of snow the state has received this Winter and Early Spring, and the rising temperatures now upon us, we wanted to reach out regarding the possible flooding that could occur.
The unprecedented amount of snowfall this season has left the ground entirely saturated. In low lying areas and places where the underground water tables are closer to the surface, flooding is already being seen. Crawlspaces and basements will bear the brunt of the flooding, and as such, we highly encourage the addition of sump pumps if there aren't any already installed in your home. Also, we recommend ensuring that you are getting as much snow and water away from your unit as possible. Place sandbags where needed, and check window wells to ensure they are cleared.
Each HOA has different maintenance responsibilities. Please refer to your association's governing documents (CC&Rs or Maintenance Resolution, if applicable), which can be found in your homeowner portal under "Shared Documents." Also, the HOA's master insurance policy certificate with an attached owner letter providing guidance on additional coverage needed can be found in your homeowner portal, as well. We definitely recommend reviewing these documents with your insurance agent to ensure you are adequately covered.
If you have specific questions on which components of your home fall under the HOA's umbrella of responsibility or your own that may be unclear in the governing documents, please feel free to reach out to us at info@apmutah.com, and we can look into the details. Additionally, here is the link to an interactive tool that may help you better evaluate your home's location and vulnerability to flooding based on established flood zones: https://floodhazards.utah.gov/property-owners/
Thank you! Alliance Property Management

FIREWORK RESTRICTIONS IN EFFECT
Stone Creek Canyon Board Directive Effective June 29, 2022
Dear Residents,
Due to the increased fire risks associated with the continuing drought, as well as consideration of the measures being taken elsewhere within the state of Utah, the Board, in conjunction with Alliance Property Management, has come to the determination that all usage of any type of fireworks, sparklers, etc. will be prohibited anywhere within the association for the remainder of the summer season of 2022.
If complaints are received declaring firework usage by residents and/or their invitees, and details have been provided as to the unit they are associated with, then a notice of violation as well as a fine will be posted to that unit.
Please be considerate of the Board’s intentions surrounding this temporary prohibition of firework usage within the association, as they are to assist with the assurance of safety for everyone and community preservation during these hot and dry times.
This directive only applies to the summer season of 2022, effective June 29, 2022, and will be invalid any time thereafter unless reevaluated for reinstatement next calendar year.
Thank you for your attention to this matter, and your commitment to the well-being of the Stone Creek Canyon community!
Respectfully,
Stone Creek Canyon Board &
Alliance Property Management
Follow Up From Annual Membership Meeting
Additional Information - Address Placard Lights
There have been numerous discussions with many residents about the shared concern for the visibility of the address placards throughout the association. After several months of brainstorming, researching, deliberation, product testing, and follow-up, a determination has been made by the Board regarding this matter. The Board has approved the installation of specified lighting to make the address placards more visible at night, and the product link is below. If you would like to install a light above your address placard, this is the product that you are able to use. It comes with a bracket and mounting screws so that it can easily be secured to the wall directly above the placard but requires no hard wiring.
This light is also noted in the Improvement Recommendations document that can be found on the Stone Creek Canyon HOA page of our website (https://www.apmutah.com/stone-creek-canyon-hoa), for future reference.
We appreciate everyone's patience and understanding while researching the best solution for our community. If you have further questions, please reach out to Alliance Property Management.
