Q: Do I need approval from the Covenants Committee to remove a tree from my property?
A: This question has many answers depending on the condition and location of the tree.
Live tree, on your property – No live trees with a diameter in excess of five inches, measured 12 inches above ground, nor flowering trees in excess of 2 inches similarly measured, or marked in a “landscape preservation area/ tree-save area” may be cut without prior approval from the Covenants Committee in conjunction with the Grounds and Facilities Committees.  For more tree-save Do’s and Don’ts please click here.
Dead tree, on your property – In contrast, any dead plants, trees and shrubs on your property that are not marked as “landscape preserve/tree-save area” should be removed immediately.  You may replace the dead plants, shrubs, or trees with a similar species and size without application approval.  Click here to apply.
Please note:  Removal of fallen trees in a “tree-save” area is prohibited, as this is a part of the natural ecology of the site.

Q: What do I do if I have a dead street tree on my property?
A: After receiving approval through the Covenants process the Homeowners are responsible all costs associated with the  removal and replacement of the street tree.  Click here to explore the full policy.

Q: Is there a policy as far as portions of the home being rented out (i.e. basements being rented out)?
A: According to the Association’s Governing Documents, Article 8, Section 8.5., Leasing (this can be found in the Declaration of Covenants, Conditions and Restrictions, which is posted on the website, belmonthoa.org under the “BoD” tab in “Governing Documents”), residents are not permitted to lease out portions of their home, only the entire home can be leased.  While overcrowding may be in violation of the Association’s Declaration, such violations of occupancy restrictions can be very difficult to prove and enforce.  If you have witnessed or have evidence of an Occupancy violation, the Association recommends that residents contact Loudoun County Government to report such violation.  Loudoun County has a section on their website called Residential Occupancy, where you can access a form for complaint of violations regarding occupancy issues.  The website allows complainants to remain anonymous while reporting these violations.  If you have a valid occupancy complaint, please go to: https://loudoun.gov/index.aspx?NID=1752 and report your issue to Loudoun County.

Q: What is being done to stop the Shopping Guide flyers and other local newspaper solicitation that are enclosed in plastic bags and dropped in front of our driveways? 

A: The Association’s management staff and Board take seriously the expectations of members that solicitation be minimized within the community.  To that end, management has posted signs at the gated entrances to the community and at the entrances of villages located outside of the gated area.  These signs quote the Loudoun County soliciting prohibition ordinance.  This has reduced some of the outside soliciting within the community.

From time to time, aggressive companies will still enter the community for solicitation purposes.  Management staff does communicate directly with those companies, to remind them about the county ordinance, in an attempt to have them refrain from this activity and we have directed the gate staff to prohibit these individuals from driving into the gated portion of the Association.  Unfortunately, the Association does not have any practical enforcement mechanisms to stop solicitors from engaging in these practices in those areas located outside the gated portions of the Association.  If you see any solicitors acting within the Association, please feel free to notify the Loudoun County Police Department.
