Can I have a Yard Sale?

1. To avoid disruption to neighbors and potential clean-up problems, individual yard sales on individual properties are not permitted.

2. Individuals wishing to have yard sales may hold such events as a community event at the grassy area near the tennis courts, subject to the following policies.

3. The organizer(s) of the yard sale must submit a written request to Management providing the following information for Board approval:

    a. Date and time of yard sale;

    b. Individual responsible for organization, setup and cleanup               

    c. A copy of the letter/flyer to the Loft Ridge community notifying homeowners of the yard sale and pertinent information for those wishing to participate.

4. Such requests shall be submitted at least 3 weeks in advance of the planned yard sale date. Yard sales are for one day only, but organizers should consider choosing and advertising an alternate date for the sale in case of rain.

5. Yard sale participants must be members of the Loft Ridge community. There must be a minimum of five households participating.

6. All items, trash etc. must be removed from the area where the yard sale is held and the grounds returned to their original condition. Any trash generated from the yard sale must not be left out on the curb (unless it is a scheduled trash day.) Any trash/items left over that are not removed will be hauled away by a professional trash company and the cost of removal charged to the individual(s) responsible for the yard sale.

7. Advertisement for the yard sale is the organizer's responsibility and should conform to the normal rules for the community; flyers may not be posted on mailboxes, trees, sign posts or light poles. Flyers may be passed out to individual homes as long as they are left in a way that they cannot be easily blown away.

8. Homeowners participating in the yard sale are encouraged to avoid parking in the immediate vicinity of the yard sale in order to allow buyers to park near the area where the sale is being held; i.e., unload your items and then move your vehicle off Ridgeview and the circle adjacent to the tennis courts. This will help with traffic flow and benefit everyone involved.
