BAYHILL ROAD SAFETY:
1. No Parking Across Sidewalks. Blocking the right of way to pedestrians, mobility scooters, wheelchairs, children walking to bus stops and people with push chairs can be a safety hazard if they are forced to go into the street to get around vehicles blocking the sidewalk.
2. Do not park across the road from a vehicle already parked on the other side. This is especially important to allow emergency vehicles to get through in times of medical and fire situations.
3. When possible, park in the apron next to the road at night.
4. Do not park within 20 feet of an intersection.
PLEASE be courteous and keep safety of our Bayhill family first and foremost.
*******************************
Be safe. If you see someone trespassing in the playground, pool, pool parking lot after dark or walking between the large lake and homes at any time - for the your safety and that of the community call the Sheriff's office at: 321-633-2123 (non-emergency number). Signs are posted and Bayhill has a Blanket No Trespassing order on file with the BSCO.

**************************
Please do not dump Grass or other yard waste in the ponds and lakes. This can cause fish kills (very smelly) and algae blooms. Also, check your yard waste receptacles have not be pushed over by storm winds or rain. This is important to avoid stopping up storm drains and cause the above or road and yard flooding.
Please keep your dogs on leash and pick up after them!
Please do not feed bird bread. It is not good for them and some are endangered and therefore protected. Also, it can attract insects and rats. Bird feeders are fine.

Reminders: All information can be found in the "BRDA Rules & Regulations" tab on the Home Page.
1. Mailboxes: Time to repaint your mailboxes black or replace the address numbers? They should be gold on black, white on black or black on white and affixed to the front of your mailbox. An ARC request is required for anything else.
2. Fence & Vegetation enclosures: Be sure 90% of your trash cans and equipment cannot been seen from the street or sidewalk. They should be hidden by fencing or vegetation enclosures.
3. Need an ARC Request? Any modification to your property requires an ARC Request. The form can be found in the "Forms" tab.
**Not sure when an ARC Request is needed? Go to the BRDA Standards, Rules and Regulations in the Rules and Regulations Tab and review Section 2. If in doubt, email [email protected] and ask!
Agendas, Minutes and Bayhill Beats: can be found on the Fairway Portal in the documents folder.
Fishing in the Bayhill and VECDD Ponds: It is important for all the ponds in Bayhill to maintain a balance between the fish and the plants in an effort to provide an ecosystem necessary to ensure clear water and to prevent fish kills, algae blooms and odors. We ask everybody fishing the Bayhill and VECDD ponds to use a “catch and release” policy. It is also a good policy as the fish from these ponds are likely to be contaminated due to herbicide, insecticide and fertilizer runoff from the surrounding properties. “NO TRESPASSING” signs are to warn people outside of Bayhill not to fish in the private areas. Note: it is allowable for people to fish in the common areas, such as along the lake that borders Murrell Road.
