Clubhouse Grand Opening
Open House, October 11, 2008 - 10 am to 2 pm
Legacy Park residents - it’s finally here, your clubhouse. Take
the opportunity to come see what it looks like and find out for
yourself what a wonderful addition to our community it will be.
Wander around and take in the wonderful views from the inviting deck that surrounds the entire building. See how it blends
in with our natural surroundings and flows with the pool house
and pool itself. Sit in one of the rocking chairs and breath in the
clean fall air, hear the tap of the tennis balls and the games at the
basketball court.
10th
Annual
Pumpkin
Fest
This has been a long process and we have a lot of past and
present Board members and homeowners who volunteered their
time and worked to get the clubhouse built. Their efforts will
always be appreciated. Thank you for your patience with the
construction and the challenges that came with it. In the end it
was worthwhile.
We will be having some light refreshments throughout the day
and welcome you to come in and visit with the staff and mingle
with your neighbors.

HOA News & Information
Management & Grounds
Here is a brief run down of what’s been happening around Legacy Park:
- All the pools are closed until May 2009, with the main pool closing September 28.
- The 2009 Budget is being prepared and will be voted on at the November 20 Board meeting.
- Many trees in playgrounds and around Legacy Park Circle have been removed because they have been identified as dead or
dying or have fallen during the recent storms.
- Both Lullwater playgrounds are having the wood re-stained due to heavy traffic. Also graffiti is removed frequently.
- After much electrical troubleshooting, the lake fountain was removed from the lake and the motor was sent back to the manufacturer and warranty work was done. The fountain will be up and running again soon!
- All street sign poles in each subdivision have been painted.
- Installation of pine straw throughout Legacy Park Common Property has been completed.
- A no parking between signs sign has been installed at the Carillon intersection.
- Fence repairs to all the tennis courts have been made; the hand rail located beside court 9, as well as the Lullwater Pool
fence, have also been repaired.
- Roof and plumbing repairs have been made to the Lullwater and Winterthur pool houses.
- Fall flowers will be planted during October and will be done in the same manner as the spring flowers – at the main entrance
and the circle entrances. The subdivision monuments will be kept clean-looking with fresh straw.
- The bathrooms at the Lullwater pool house have had new granite countertops installed. The previous laminate tops were
damaged and had to be replaced. What a great improvement to the pool house – when the pools open next year, we hope
you all will be pleased!
Thank you to Tony Brown of Granite and Marble Concepts
for donating the countertops, they are great!

HOA News & Information

Two of the five HOA Board of Directors seats will be up for election in 2009 at the
February 10, 2009 Annual Meeting.
If you are excited about volunteerism and becoming more involved in you
community…
If you have ideas for improving our community……
If you are willing to lend your expertise to help our community with budgetary and
maintenance decisions………
Then this is your opportunity to make a difference and get involved in the decisions
that affect your community. Qualifications for prospective board members:
Interest, Talent, Time and a Desire to serve the residents of Legacy Park on its
governing board. Board members must be able to attend a minimum of 2 monthly
meetings and participate in LP activities and special meetings.
If service on the Board is of interest to you, or if you know someone you believe
would be a good candidate, talk to him/her about becoming a candidate. You may
nominate yourself or someone else who has agreed to be a candidate by contacting Lisa Neff at 770-919-2556 or via e-mail at propertymanager@legacypark.org.
A list of candidates along with their biographies will be in the December Town

issues of the Town Herald.
Deadlines for candidates for the 2009 Board of Directors Election:
• Board nominations due to HOA office by November 3rd
• Candidate biographies due to the HOA office by November 10th
HOA Office is Moving
The HOA office will be moving into our new space the week of October 6. During this week, you will be able to find us
either in the lower level of the clubhouse (easily accessible from the amphitheatre parking lot) or in our current office at the
Town Fair. We are hoping for a smooth transition in order to be able welcome everyone to the clubhouse during the Open
House on October 11. This has been a long-awaited project and it will be great to have the HOA office finally located on
Legacy Park’s property. Be sure to stop by and visit on October 11.
Back Entrance on Kirkwood Drive
Many residents ask about the gate located at the end of
Kirkwood Drive in Lullwater. That gate is privately owned
and is NOT the property of Legacy Park. The HOA does
own the small piece of land to the right hand side of the
gate and the developer in Lullwater built the sidewalk that
runs next to the private drive for convenience to residents.
Again, the gate is privately owned and the Legacy Park
HOA does not have any access codes to it.
After a fallen tree broke the majority of the fence, the HOA
removed the remainder of the fence that was located
adjacent to the sidewalk. Many school age children use
the sidewalk to get to North Cobb High School and Awtrey
Middle School. However, the sidewalk was NOT constructed for vehicles to drive on it. It is not only dangerous to
drive a vehicle on a sidewalk; it is obviously unsafe for the
children who may be walking in that area. Should you see
anyone using the sidewalk to drive their car along, please
contact the HOA or the Kennesaw Police Department immediately with a tag number and a complete description of
the vehicle!
Covenant Reminder –
Political Signs
With the upcoming national & local elections, the
HOA wants to remind you of the rule regarding
signage on your property:
Legacy Park Design Guideline 3.2.22(c) provides
that: Campaign signs for candidates for elected
office, less than 2’x 2’may be erected on individual properties no more than 14 days prior to
an election and must be removed within 48 hours
after a winner is declared. A maximum of three
signs are allowed per yard.
Further for those homes that are located on
Amenity Lots (including the homes that back up
to Legacy Park Circle), Design Guideline 3.4.6(a)
prohibits signs being placed in the rear or side of
your property.
Be Kind to Neighbors…………
Neighbors are one of the greatest assets we have in
Legacy Park. Neighbors can watch each others homes,
retrieve mail, play with the kids, feed the dog while away
and in general be available when needed. When we are
next door or down the street from each other for years,
sometimes we forget the common courtesies that we as
neighbors should follow.
• Please keep in mind that not everyone is up at the crack
of dawn when children are waiting for the school bus.
• Please try to maintain the noise level of the children
waiting for the bus.
• Dogs walked through the neighborhood on a leash with a
pooper scooper are neighborly. Dogs off leashes are not
allowed in Cobb County or Legacy Park. Allowing dogs
to use a neighbor’s yard for a potty break is definitely not
neighborly.
• Kids playing in the cul-de-sac and on sidewalks are
neighborly. Kids throwing or kicking balls into the neighbor’s yard, damaging the landscape is not neighborly.
• Cleaning and mowing your yard is neighborly. Throwing
the debris you have cleaned from your yard into a neighbor’s yard is not neighborly. Leaving the debris in the
street is a violation of a city ordinance as well.
• Walking over to your neighbor’s house to say “Hi” is
neighborly. Walking through your neighbor’s yard to cut
through to somewhere else is not neighborly.
• Parking your car or visitors’ cars in the garage and drive
way area is neighborly. Parking your car or visitors’ cars
in the street in front of a neighbor’s home or blocking a
driveway is not neighborly.
These are just a few recent issues that have been brought
up. Whether these issues affect you are not, it is important to remember how valuable your neighbors are. A little
common courtesy goes a long way!

A Word About Covenants....House Painting - Ahh the dreaded letter!
ALL COLORS MUST BE APPROVED - EVEN ORIGINAL ONES!!!!
Soon the lawns will go dormant and it will be time to focus on the maintenance of the actual home. So many homes are in need of
painting. Many homeowners know that a letter is soon forthcoming, so please inspect your house and get ready. There are homes
that have not been painted for 10 years and there are homes that have been painted 3 years ago and are in need of painting
already. It is all about the quality of the paint and the painters. I would suggest getting a reputable painter when choosing one.
The lowest price is not always the best value.
Here are some things to look at when determining whether your house needs repair and painting:
1.
2.
3.
4.
5.
6.
Cracking and/or peeling around windows and doors.
Faded spots on the siding where the paint looks as if it has worn away.
Streaks on the siding that do not go away after power washing.
Wood knots showing through on the trim
Popped nails can mean rotting boards and water damage.
Faded shutters and front door.
Painting is a big expense, but one that a homeowner should prepare for when living in a covenant enforced neighborhood. Also,
if you do not agree that the house needs to be painted, we have an excellent appeal process in place and you will be heard and
treated fairly.
Big trees, Little lots The ongoing LP saga of dying lawns and growing mulch beds. It is time to limb up or get rid of that tree in the front that is killing
your grass. DO NOT extend your beds. This is not always the best answer and unless approved by the ARC, is a violation.
Remember though that before removing any tree, unless it is in danger of falling on your house, it has to be approved.
The lawns in Highcroft and Lullwater seem to be the most affected by this issue. Those beautiful trees have grown into monstrosities and are just too big for the front yards. If you are in need of a referral for a tree service, call the office and we can help direct
you to a few reputable companies.
Also, remember that only 2 types of grass are allowed in the front…Zoysia and Bermuda.
Good luck and see you in November!!!

FAAN’s Trick or Treat for Food Allergy Education and Research
For children who have food allergies, ghosts and goblins aren’t the scariest part of trick-ortreating – the treats are. We want to find a cure and there is great hope. With new research
on the forefront, doctors and scientists are working on tools to better diagnose, treat and cure
life threatening food allergies like the ones my five year old daughter Ellie has.
This is why we are participating in FAAN’s Trick-or-Treat for Food Allergies which lets kids
join in the Halloween fun while increasing food allergy awareness and collecting monetary
donations to help find a cure. Please join us in our efforts to help find a cure which may be as
close as 5 years away if enough funding can be raised. I can’t tell you how grateful and truly life changing it would
be for our daughter and the many children and adults like her if a cure is discovered.
To participate please bring any amount you would like to donate with you while you are Trick or Treating on
Halloween night….cash, change or checks made out to FAAN. You can leave your donation in one of the FAAN trick or
treat cans at the following addresses on Halloween night or at the HOA office before Nov. 2nd. If you have questions
please email Jill at jgsebaugh@yahoo.com. Thank you!!

Cobb County Teen Driver Awareness Safety Campaign
Every year over 5,000 teens die, 200,000 are injured and another 46,000
are left incapacitated. Effective Oct. 1st, The Caution and Courtesy Driver
Alliance in conjunction with the Governor’s Office of Highway Safety and
the Georgia Department of Transportation will launch a new statewide
campaign to identify all “permit” and “first year” drivers with the “CAUTIONNEWLY LICENSED” car magnet.
To launch the safety campaign, free magnets will be available at all of the
Cobb County Dept. of Driver Services locations. The City of Kennesaw, the
first model city to roll out this program, is also providing free car magnets
at City Hall to their teen driver residents. The car magnet alerts surrounding drivers of the novice driver and encourages caution, patience, and
courtesy when driving in their vicinity.
Alan Brown, whose teen son Joshua died in a car crash, is an advocate and spokesperson for Georgia’s new Teen Driver
Awareness Safety Campaign. He is also the founder of Joshua’s Law. This law requires teens to have at least 40 hours of
supervised driving experience. If under the age of 17, it also requires a completed drivers education course approved by the
Department of Driver Services.
“We have over 250,000 inexperienced teen drivers in Georgia,” says Brown.
“It can be a nerve wracking experience for teens (and their parents) when they are getting their required driving lessons. The
last thing they need are people honking and tailgating. The CAUTION-NEWLY LICENSED car magnet really does work and
other drivers tend to be more respectful and courteous when they see these magnets on the cars. We all need to work together
to protect these kids and all motorists”.
Approximately 50% of teen drivers will crash their first year. Not only are they hurting themselves but they are also hurting
