Safety Reminders for Fall and Winter
Posted on Nov 10th, 2020
FALL AND WINTER REMINDERS
~ For all owners that live on a lake, please refrain from blowing leaves and debris in the lakes. If you have a lawn crew that performs this work for you, please advise them as well. Any leaves that can be kept out of the lakes will help the overall quality of the water. Also, do not use fertilizers with phosphorous in it, as this goes into the water and causes algae blooms. Please check with your contractor to make sure that they use phosphorus fertilizer-free fertilizer. If you purchase the fertilizer yourself, the number on the bag that represents phosphorous should be 0.
~ In an effort to combat reckless and underage/illegal driving of golf carts on the public streets in our community, the Stone Oak Security Committee has formed a task force. The Golf Cart Task Force is commissioned to perform the following:
- Report any perceived underage golf cart drivers to the Lucas County Sheriff
- Report any reckless or careless behavior while driving a golf cart
- Build awareness to the public-non-residents that our community is a golf cart community
The Golf Cart Task Force is made up of Security Committee members and encourages anyone in the community to report this type of behavior to the Lucas County Sheriff's Non-Emergency Line at 419-213-4977.
It is hoped by taking action accidents and potentially tragic consequences can and will be avoided. Thank you in advance for your cooperation.
~ The Architectural Control Committee (ACC) protects the community's property values by ensuring new construction and modifications of anything to the exterior of the homes meet our standards and deed restrictions. Any new homes, changes to homes, decks, docks, fences, etc. must have ACC approval. The Board of Trustees has taken legal action --- and successfully won --- with respect to this issue.
~ If you do not receive community e-mail updates, please send your email address to eosstifin@metrotoledohomes.com.
Being included in the email address list will allow you to receive timely "blast alerts" of things that are happening in the community. Also, please regularly visit the website at www.stoneoak-community.com for important and current information about Stone Oak.
- Please do not feed or provide shelter to feral cats
- Fishing on the lakes is permitted for residents and their accompanied guests only. Due to safety and liability issues, ice-fishing is not permitted.
- Please be a good neighbor and make sure that any snow that is removed from your property is not piled or blown on to another neighbor's property.
- Any truck, boat, bus, tent, RV, trailer or other similar housing device may not be stored in the driveway or on the street. It must be stored in the garage.
- Garbage cans must be stored inside the garage and may only be placed outside for garbage pick-up on the day of pick-up.
- For the safety of the community, please obey the posted speed limits.
- All sign are prohibited except FOR SALE signs and these must conform to the established uniform signage for Stone Oak.
- If you walk your dog, please keep it on a leash so that it does not wander or jump on people and clean-up after it.

Stone Oak HOA - Security Committee Update
Posted on Feb 23rd, 2020
This is a friendly reminder to please notify Sgt. Joe at sgtjoe187@aol.com and the Lucas County Sheriff at 419-213-4941 (non-emergency) before you travel on vacation. They will be able to check on your home while you are gone. When traveling for an extended period of time, consider using a timer or smart plug on interior lights to give the appearance that you are at home. Also, remember to keep your car locked when parked in your driveway or on the street and ask your guests to do the same.
As always, immediately call 911 for any emergencies or if you notice anything suspicious. For non-emergency communications, general security questions and/or comments, feel free to contact the HOA Security Committee at stoneoakpatrol@gmail.com.
Also, please observe the posted speed limit in the neighborhood. We receive constant feedback that vehicles are traveling well over the posted limits, especially on Pine Valley, Augusta Lane and Orchard Lake Road. The Sheriff has offered to post a patrol car in these areas to catch speeders, but we would rather have our homeowners watch their speed rather than escalate to that step. Please remind young drivers as well.
Your cooperation to improve and maintain the safety and security of this wonderful community is greatly appreciated!
