Pool
: The
Indiana State Board of Health has provided guidelines for opening community
pools this summer. After reviewing the options, the board (along with input
from some homeowners) has decided to open the pool however, at this time until
we are able to go back to our normal pool guidelines, the following regulations
will be in place:
This is your community; your ongoing
concern & care helps make Sandpiper Bay a pleasant place to live.
Pool opening date will be when Marion County moves to ‘Phase 3’. Stay tuned.

- The hours will remain the same. 7 days a week from 9:00am to 9:00pm
- To accommodate Social Distancing, at this time, only 10 homeowners will be allowed in the pool area at one time
- At this time, no guests allowed
- The restrooms and pool area (pool ladders, doorknobs, etc.) will be sanitized daily at 8:30 am by members of the ‘Pool Committee’. They will be provided the equipment based on the sanitation requirements from the State
- A Sanitation Sheet will be filled out and visible to all homeowners when the area was last sanitized, the time and by whom
- The pool furniture will NOT be put out. Homeowners will need to bring their own chairs, use only those chairs and take them with you when they leave
- No communal toys allowed
Again, this is all being done in response to Covid-19 and the state’s
recent recommendations for pools and will be lifted as soon as we are able.
Thank you to the Pool Committee
for making this happen!!

We have received complaints and seen dogs that are being tethered outside with no homeowner in sight. Dogs are not to be tethered outside and left unattended at any time. Please be present when giving your pet some fresh air and make sure that the tether length does not allow your pet outside your property. Barking dogs can be disruptive to your neighbors and invites complaints.
The doggie bag containers will be reiflled this week. We apologize for the delay.
When planning to plant and refresh your outside areas this summer, remember that an Architectural Form that can be found on our website, must be submitted, and approved prior to work being done. This is not required for planting in your front area, only new changes.
The fish are jumpin'! Please remember that fishing guests must be accompanied by a homeowner.

Ideas to think and talk about
We have received ideas from homeowners
and would like your input at the next meeting in July (keep your fingers
crossed):
- Communal Fire Pit. This idea is for a fire pit area in the grassy area by the pool
- Trash Can storage. What could we do to make the large green trash cans not be so unattractive?
- What do we think about getting a large communal trash bin, placed in the basketball court area every spring for heavy items to be discarded?
- Basketball Goal. Not in the budget for this year, but it has been requested that the basketball goal be re-installed.
