Several questions and concerns were raised at the General Membership Meeting last month. This quick memo is just to provide information on those items. As always, please feel free to reach out to us with any additional questions or concerns you may have.
Garbage Container Labels
We verified with Ace Disposal that they have no restrictions on labeling the garbage containers. If you’d like to label your unit’s containers, we are requesting you use white stickers with black numbering. Please do not paint or write on the containers.
Traffic Study for Midland Drive
We reached out to Weber County in effort to see if it was possible to request a traffic study as it would pertain to entering and exiting the HOA, especially during rush hour and other times of high traffic flow. We were informed that all traffic studies are requested by Region Traffic Engineers, and then promptly received a response from a gentleman in this department. They are fully aware of the growing traffic problem on that stretch of Midland drive, and already have a project in the works. They are planning to start the project of widening Midland Drive in 2028.
Curb Address Numbers
The Board has pre-approved residents to have reflective address numbers painted on the curbs at the ends of the driveways if they wish to do so. This would be at the cost of the homeowner, and the requirements to be met for this project can be found on the Exterior Modifications Recommendations packet located in your homeowner portal under the Shared Documents tab.
This is the criteria to be met if you’d like to have this done:
White background with black numbering
Recommended Vendor:Grizzly Gutters and Exteriors (Josh – grizzlyguttersllc@gmail.com).
If a different vendor is desired, that’s no problem. Just ensure to include the vendor details in your Architectural Review Request for approval prior to painting. If there are multiple residents who’d like to coordinate to go in together and have their driveways done at the same time, Josh will discount the work for every 10 units.
Address Plates
The responsibility for the maintenance and repair or replacement of address plates is assigned to the respective homeowners. There have been objections to this, citing that the current address plates (originally installed during development) do not meet international fire or building code requirements and as such, should be the association’s responsibility to replace. I brought these concerns to a West Haven City Building Inspector who visited the HOA property to examine the plates and evaluate the concerns presented. His response stated that the plates were approved during the final development inspection, and do not need to be updated to meet the current code’s requirements. With this firmly established, the maintenance, repair and replacement of the address numbers will remain the responsibility of the homeowners as listed in the Maintenance Resolution. Furthermore, the inspector indicated it’s recommended that replacement address plates comply with the current code; but it’s not required, and the plates can be replaced like for like. The approved replacement options for homeowners to use meet these criteria, and the details for these products are provided in the Exterior Modification Recommendations packet.
Respectfully,

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.

Hello Owners,
After auditing the occupancy information in our system for the units at Stone Creek Canyon, as well as reviewing the requirements of the HOA with the association Board, we are now requesting homeowners to provide an attestation of compliance with the HOA's owner and tenant-related 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).
As always, please reach out with any questions you may have. Thank you.

Hello Residents,
We are discouraged by the recent incidents and concerns brought forward related to the Stone Creek Canyon pool. We are disheartened by the need for this notification; however, it has become necessary to remind the residents of Stone Creek Canyon’s pool rules, and additionally, to inform the association that continued lack of adherence to these rules will result in revocation privileges as well as notable changes in the rules. The specific regulations pertaining to the most recent areas of concern are highlighted below.
If drastic improvement in the amount of garbage left lying around and food items in and near the pool is not seen immediately, there will be no food or drink other than water permitted in the pool area. If there is no improvement in the treatment of the facilities and the property by those using them, the pool hours will be reduced. The Pool Rules will be updated to reflect these changes accordingly.
If you are witness to property damage or destruction, abuse of the facilities, or violation of the provided rules, please let us know as soon as possible (with pictures when appropriate) so that we can research and follow up with appropriate action whenever possible.

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.

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
Dear Resident(s),
After much discussion between the Board Members and Alliance, along with the adoption of the revised HOA Rules and Regulations, new parking policies are being implemented. New signage is being installed this week, and an updated parking map has been attached to show how this will look going forward.
Important changes to note:
The Monthly Permit Parking (shown on the attached map as the blue stalls) is the same as what is currently in place, however the fee for these stalls is being reduced to $50 per month for 1 stall, or $85 per month for 2 stalls beginning 4/1/2023. If you already hold permits, your monthly charges will be changed to reflect these new prices effective 4/1/2023. If you would like to obtain a monthly permit, please reach out to us via an email to info@apmutah.com.
The 3-Day Permit Parking (shown on the attached map as the brown stalls) is an option that has been made available for residents to purchase at the cost of $15 each when they have extended-stay visitors. These permits will be dated for the 3-day window that they are requested for and will become invalid after that window. These permits are available as soon as the installation of the new signage has been completed. If you would like to obtain a 3-day permit, please reach out to us via an email to info@apmutah.com.
All other common area parking stalls within the association (shown on the attached map as the red stalls) are specifically intended for and designated as 24-hour visitor parking only. These parking stalls are not intended to accommodate extended-stay visitors. These stalls are also not intended to accommodate resident parking. If it is suspected that extended-stay visitors and/or residents are using these parking stalls in violation of the posted signage and indicated intent, the offending vehicles will be tagged and towed at the expense of the vehicles' owners. We are hoping to work collectively with everyone to ensure that visiting parties are able to park legally within the association knowing that parking overall is rather limited at Stone Creek Canyon. Please let us know if you have any questions pertaining to the updated parking structure.
The Stone Creek Canyon Board has approved revisions to the Association’s Rules and Regulations document. The changes that have been made to this document were proposed, discussed, and approved during the recent Board Meeting on February 9th, 2023. These changes include additional and/or clarifying language in the following sections:
• Parking
• Exterior Maintenance
• Pets/Animals
• Pool Rules
• General Violation Fine Schedules
A copy of the Revised Rules and Regulations is attached. This document has also been posted to both your owner portal and the Stone Creek Canyon page of our website: https://www.apmutah.com/stone-creek-canyon-hoa.
This document has been formally adopted by the Stone Creek Canyon HOA as of February 10th, 2023, and the rules and regulations therein are effective immediately.

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
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.
Please familiarize yourself and guests of the community of these important communications.
