Volunteers are needed so save the date!

The Kelly Plantation Memorial Trees Program was established in 2025 for member homeowners and their families interested in planting trees as living memorials or honorariums. The KPHOA Trees Program is designed to aid in preserving fond memories of past family and friends, honor special individuals or groups, and enhance KPHOA green space.

The KPHOA Board, working with the HOA’s Landscape contractor will select, plant and individually maintain trees at designated areas in the common areas of the HOA. Requests for particular tree species and planting locations will be accommodated when possible but tree selection will be centered around the basic, arboricultural principle of planting the right tree in the right location.

Spring Clean Up Planning – As Spring approaches, the Board is posting this as a reminder that a large number of fences are in disrepair and will be needing repairs and re-staining to remain in compliance with the Covenants. This kind of work requires an ARC approval…please plan ahead and make sure to submit your request. For most cases this is a pro-forma easy approval—using the same colors, etc. (based on approved colors in the ARC Guidelines document on the KPHOA website) are easy approvals. Some fences are in such a state of disrepair due to age that they may need a more formal approval. The Board realizes that these can be major expenses and urges you to plan ahead.  As Spring gets closer, Elite will begin to enforce the fencing repairs as violations. They have only addressed more serious ones to date this year. Another item of note, a good number of fences are reaching end of life on their staining—clear or semi-transparent stains do not last as long as the standard coverage options. You may find that the Alabama sun has burned off your stain in parts of your fencing and may be cited for non-compliance for this reason. Please take a proactive stance on keeping our neighborhood looking great. As always, please feel free to reach out to the Board email if you have questions before submitting an ARC request (kellyplantationhoaboard@gmail.com).

Many of you may have noted a change to the courts recently. Due to several bulbs burning out and the high cost of changing out those older metal halide lights, the court lights have been changed out for new LED lighting that will better light the courts when in use after dusk. The timer has also been replaced with a digital timer…please remember that the courts and lights should be shut down by 10 p.m. While the lights are shining on the courts, the neighbors close by will get their share of light overspill…please be kind. The Board continues to research solutions to the underlying aging court base…water incursion is causing some issues on the courts surface. We are now seeking bids for water management for the stormwater running down the hill and settling under the surface (and in the playground). We will update the membership on this as it develops as we move forward into the Spring.

Helping hands needed for our KP Events Committee.  Cassie needs your assistance as currently she is the only member of the committee.  Please get in touch if you are interested.  

As members of the Board of Directors and neighborhood, we continually strive to maintain the beauty and integrity of our community while also fostering a sense of pride and community among our residents. We also want to give residents an opportunity to celebrate the successes of their household. Our community’s covenants state:

“No sign of any kind shall be erected by an Owner or Occupant within the Community without the prior written consent of the Architectural Review Committee.”

However, for the 2025 calendar year, the Board has decided to allow temporary signage celebrating graduating seniors, high school sports, bands, and other school successes, provided they are consistent with the overall aesthetic of the neighborhood. To ensure these signs remain tasteful and do not detract from our community’s appearance, the following restrictions will apply:

Size Limitation – Signs may not exceed 2 feet by 3 feet in dimension.

Quantity Per Household – Each household may display up to one sign per person being recognized.

Duration – Signs may be displayed for no more than two months at a time.

Location – Signs must be placed within flowerbeds only and not in yards or common areas.

This policy does not include:

Political signs – Not permitted under this policy.

Birthday signage – May be displayed for 2-3 days.

Service signage (e.g., roofer signs) – May be displayed for up to 3 days after job completion.

Professional and college sports team signs – May only be displayed on the day of the event and should be removed immediately after.

We appreciate everyone’s cooperation in adhering to these guidelines, which allow us to celebrate our residents' achievements while maintaining the high standards that make our neighborhood a wonderful place to live.

As many of you know, the KP Book Club meets the last Thursday of each month (with some exceptions) to discuss that month's selected reading. We chat about characters, perception, laugh about misconceptions, provide opinions and personal stories and so on. We really do have a great time! And we would love for you to join us!  Please check the calendar for meeting dates and times (occasionally they change) and the book club page for the monthly reading list.

As always, feel free to contact your KP Events Committee at kphoaevents@gmail.com should you have any questions.
