Do Not Open Gate for Anyone

YET AGAIN, this time on September 8, 2025, a homeless person gained entrance to the Clubhouse area by saying he lived here. He gained access to the pool and used the shower. He then gained access to the Game room to cool in the A/C. There were mothers with their children in the pool. DO NOT OPEN THE GATE FOR ANYONE. Homeowners are the only people who can gain access to the Clubhouse area only if they have a card or a FOB. This is an extremely important level of security. This is in place for both your safety and for those that are in the Clubhouse area. If anyone says that they left their access device at home, simply say ‘Go get it!’ DO NOT OPEN THE GATE FOR ANYONE. If you are witnessed on video opening the gate, your priveledges will be removed from the system.

No Food or Drink in Pool Area

Some homeowners have not read the No Food or Drink in Pool Area posted on the pool door. It is a federal law that no food and drink is permitted in a community pool area. Bottled water is allowed. No other beverages are allowed, including soda, fruit juices and alcoholic drinks.

When a homeowner is discovered to have food and drink in the pool area, the homeowner will be fined One Hundred Dollars ($100.00), per offense.

Any homeowner who witnesses anyone at the pool with food and drink, please alert the office as soon as possible so that the HOA can immediately handle the offense.

If homeowners do not comply with this federal law, the HOA will be forced by law to close the pool.

No Peeing in the Pool, PLEASE

As a reminder, with Comstock Park HOA pool opening at 8am on Monday, 27, May 2024, if any pee is detected when testing the pool water, the State requires us to close the pool. Parent, please talk with your kids about this. One person’s actions can affect all of us. We certainly do not want to close the pool, especially in the upcoming hot months of July, August and September. Your attention to this is most appreciated.

Danger!:  Dog Paws Burn in Heat

It is that season and we wish to remind all homeowners in Comstock Park HOA that the heat substantially increases the temperature on asphalt and concrete! An outside temperature of 90 degrees means the asphalt temperature is 150 degrees.

Burn symptoms are as follows:

The affected area is reddened and swollen (1st degree)
Clear blisters are visible (2nd degree)
The skin is charred (3rd degree)

You can avoid burning your dog’s paws by:

Do the “seven-second test” before walking your dog.
Walk your dog on grass or in meadows.¹⁰
Walk your dog at times when the ground is cooler – early in the morning or late in the evening.

If your dog’s paws get burnt, call your vet as soon as possible. If not treated properly, the paws can get horribly infected and it can be expensive.
