NC State Law Requires Licensed Drivers on All Golf Carts and Other Motor Vehicles
Only licensed vehicles driven by licensed drivers are legal for use on our roads. Other vehicles are prohibited and may be ticketed by the Sheriff. Golf carts must have lights and be registered in Wake County to be driven and then only by licensed drivers. If you see laws being broken and are so inclined, call the Sheriff’s office (919.856.6900). 
 
    
 
     Dog and Cat Owners
     Leash Requirements &
     Clean-up
We ask that dog owners clean up after their pets as they walk the neighborhood. If you’re walking your dog, cat, or emu off of your property, it must be on a leash. You can report strays or other issues with animals to Wake County Animal Control. 
 
Barking Dogs
When your dog barks continually please attend to it. This is especially true in the evenings when people are eating, relaxing, and sleeping, and in the early hours when some people may still be sleeping. Everyone appreciates your cooperation.
If a dog barks continually or if it violates the requirements in Article XIII of the Covenants, one can contact Wake County Animal Control (or call 919-212-7387) for assistance.
Obnoxious Noises & Annoyances
Article XI of the Protective Covenants for Turner Downs states that “No noxious or offensive activities shall be conducted or permitted upon any lot… or which may become a nuisance or an annoyance to the neighborhood.” Article XIII covers annoying sounds made by animals – e.g., barking dogs, etc.
Please be aware and considerate of your neighbors if you own loud equipment such as ATVs, gas-powered golf carts, motorcycles, powered scooters, etc. — This is even more important “after hours.”  
 
 
Open Fires
Outside burning of garbage or debris is not allowed. This violation falls under Article X, of the HOA Covenant — “No garbage or debris shall be burned on any lot, nor may any lot be used as a dumping area.” Outdoor gas and charcoal grills, commercially available or custom-built outdoor fireplaces, and cooking areas are allowed. The Fire Marshall recommends using processed wood logs to minimize blowing sparks.
Parking on Streets
While we enjoy decent streets in our neighborhood, they are not quite wide enough to comfortably allow for parked cars. We encourage all residents to park their vehicles in their driveways or garages to keep the streets clear for traffic and pedestrians. Visitors and commercial vehicles will at times park on the roads. Please be careful when passing parked vehicles to avoid accidents.
