2020 Mid-Season Pool Update

Download PDF version of this update

We are now about 2/3 of the way through our pool season and have been carefully monitoring both use of the pool and compliance with the special rules we have made during the pandemic. There have been a couple of changes made to the rules and guidelines we want residents to be aware of: 

Change to Guest Policy: In the beginning of the season, a “no guest” policy was adopted; anyone who is not a full-time permanent resident of a home in the neighborhood is considered a guest. Based on the usage counts for the pool we have now amended the guest policy to allow up to 3 guests on weekdays (Monday through Friday). Guests are still not allowed on weekends. We ask that residents register for guest bands (which are black) for guests they would like to bring to the pool. Residents should continue to wear their red wristbands whenever they are in the cabana or pool. 

Change to Monitors: Beginning Monday, August 17th, we will operate with self-registration and sign-in on weekdays; there will continue to be a full-time monitor on-site on weekends. Please follow these guidelines on weekdays:

  • If you are visiting the pool for the first time, we ask that you read the pool rules and guidelines which you will find on the sign-in table, then fill in the registration form with your name and phone number. We also ask that you sign the registration form to acknowledge that you understand and accept the pool rules. Someone from the pool committee will call within 2-3 days to arrange to deliver your pool wristbands directly to you. After registering, please also sign in for your visit on the separate sign in sheet. We are monitoring pool use, so we also ask that you sign out when you leave. 
  • If you are already registered, please sign in on the sign in sheet. We are monitoring pool use, so we also ask that you sign out when you leave. If you are bringing new guests, please note that on the registration form so we know to provide you your guest wristbands. 

Please note that on weekdays we will be sanitizing high touch areas at the pool opening (10 AM) and pool closing (8 PM) only. You will be responsible for making sure you use the provided sanitation station for any additional treatment you wish of high touch areas. Except as noted above, the pool rules and guidelines for occupancy and use remain in force. ALL USE OF THE POOL AND CABANA IS AT YOUR OWN RISK. 

NEW CONTACT OPTION: If you have questions or need further direction regarding the pool, please reach out to the Silver Lake Pool Committee at SilverLakePoolCommittee@gmail.com

Pool Closing Date: The final day the pool will be open in 2020 is Sunday, September 13th

The Silver Lake Community has had a great pool season so far this year and we appreciate all our residents who have made it successful.

Amended 6/19/2020

  • All persons who are present within the jurisdiction of the City of Raleigh are required to wear a clean face-covering any time they are, or will be, in contact with other people who are not household members in public or private spaces where it is not possible to maintain social distance or where recommended social distancing practices are not being followed. Noted exceptions are:
    • It is not required to wear face coverings during individual exercise outdoors, or while walking or exercising with other people from the same household, as long as social distance from others is maintained.
    • In settings where it is not practical or feasible to wear a face covering, including when obtaining or rendering goods or services, such as the receipt of dental services or while swimming.
  • Lost wristbands will be replaced at a cost of $10 per wristband – the cost will be added to your Master Association account

The Silver Lake Pool will be open beginning Thursday, June 18th. Our current plan is to keep the pool open through Sunday, September 13th, 2020, but there may be scheduling changes required by our experience with pool usage, determination of need for (and funding for) the pool monitor and/or any additional Executive Orders from the Governor or directives from the NCDHHS.  

The following rules will be in effect in addition to the regular pool rules. These may be subject to change according to guidance as noted above. The Silver Lake Masters HOA Board also may choose to close the pool if rules and guidelines are not being followed.

  • Residents only will be allowed into the pool and cabana area – no guests for the time being due to the need to limit occupancy numbers.
  • If you, or anyone in your household is currently showing any signs of COVID-19 or have been diagnosed with COVID-19 less than 14 days previously, you may not use the pool. Additionally, if you have been in contact with someone showing any signs of COVID-19 or diagnosed with COVID-19 less than 14 days previously, you may not use the pool.
  • Homeowners will be asked to show proof of residency, either with a Driver License or received mail such as a utility bill and to acknowledge they have read and understand the rules on their first visit to the pool. They will then be given wristbands which should be worn anytime they are using the pool or cabana.
  • The operating hours for the pool will be (until further notice) daily from 10 AM to 8 PM. The pool may close for an hour once or twice a day to clean and sanitize. Cabana hours will be the same as the pool.
  • There will be a limit of 2 hours of pool use if there are other residents waiting to access the pool.
  • A pool monitor will be on duty to monitor access and perform additional sanitizing of pool and cabana areas as much as possible.
  • The number of people allowed in the pool, on the pool deck and utilizing the cabana will be limited according to the state guidelines; those maximums will be:
    • 13 in the pool
    • 26 on the pool deck
    • 9 in the cabana
  • There should be no more than 2 people utilizing the bathrooms at a time.
  • We request, and highly recommend, that residents wear masks when not in the pool.
  • Please maintain the recommended 6 feet of distance from others not in your household.
  • Furniture should be sanitized before and after use. Please do not move the pool furniture.
  • All “Lost and Found” items will be discarded at the end of the day.
  • Do not share items such as food, drinks or pool toys with non-household members.  
  • One grill will remain available for use in the cabana area during the open hours; we ask that residents who wish to use the grill bring their own utensils and sanitize the surfaces after using. Use of the grill will be at your own risk as well.
  • While the Silver Lake Masters HOA board is committed to taking steps to make the pool as safe as possible, some responsibility also lies with the residents of the community; users are responsible for wiping down surfaces, social distancing within the facility as publicly recommended or required, and using personal protective equipment (gloves, masks, etc.) in accordance with CDC requirements, or requirements of State of North Carolina, Wake County or the City of Raleigh. Even with enhanced cleaning and monitoring practices, use of the pool is AT YOUR OWN RISK. 

If you have further questions or comments, please contact Jessica or Tom at Omega Management, and they will forward to the board. We thank all our residents for doing their part to make the cabana and pool – and all our neighborhood – a safe shared experience. THANK YOU!

Bluffs Community Reminders

Important Community Reminders

Holiday Decorations

Seasonal decorations are only to be displayed up to five (5) weeks prior to the holiday season and must be removed within two (2) weeks after the holiday season. 

Garbage Containers

Garbage containers need to be stored so they are not noticeable from the street; otherwise, they are in violation of the community’s Declaration of Covenants.  Please place your garbage container at the street the night before pickup and return it the night of the pickup.  Your garbage containers must be out of sight at all other times.

Pets

As a reminder, please keep animals on a leash when they are outside of a fenced yard.  All Owners are responsible for cleaning up after their pet.  Pet waste allowed to remain on the ground is unsightly and a health hazard to other animals and children who may encounter it.  It is essential that each pet owner do their part to keep the community clean for the enjoyment of all residents.  Pet stations equipped with pet waste baggies have been installed to assist pet owners in their efforts to pick up after their pets.  Out of courtesy to others, please keep your pet leashed and/or contained at all times and pick up after your dog.  

Architectural Guidelines

Exterior changes require approval from the Association.  Each homeowner preparing to make an exterior change needs to fill out an architectural request, which can be obtained at www.omegamgmt.comSome general examples of exterior changes that require approval are: staining a deck/patio/fence, installing a fence, extensive landscaping, tree removal, and additions.  If you are not sure about the need to get approval always call us before you get started.  Also, if you have made an improvement without approval please contact our office as soon as possible.
