Committees

Committees: Members and Duties

Townhome and Townhome Site Modifications, Construction, Installations and Alterations:
Any and all changes to the exterior of your Townhome or the Townhome Site require the approval of the Modifications Committee. A homeowner is required to submit an application describing the modification and no work should commence until the application is approved. This application can be emailed, faxed or mailed to PMG.

The Modifications Committee has created, and the Board has adopted, BSHA Design Guidelines which will assist a homeowner with proposed changes. The Amended and Restated Declarations of Covenants and Restrictions for Baldwin Square (Deed Restrictions) supersede the Design Guidelines and have exclusive jurisdiction over any modifications, additions or alterations made to Townhomes or Townhome Sites.

Parking Regulations:
Parking regulations were adopted by the Board of Directors of the Baldwin Square Homeowners Association in April, 2006. BSHA Homeowners were apprised of the regulations in a letter dated May 1, 2006. Vehicles left unattended, parking or encroaching on any common area, including, but not limited to, the common driveways, landscaped areas and lawns, are in violation of the regulations and are subject to towing.
