SYDNEY HARBOUR - COMMUNITY POOL CLOSING

Dear Sydney Harbour Owners, 
This is a reminder that the community pool will be open for 2 more weekends, September 10 & 11 and the 17th and 18th.  After that the pool will be closed until next May.

As a member in good standing you may apply for a swimming pool pass. The electronic pool pass system will continue for the pool season. Should you already have an access card you will use the same card again this year. To access the pool area you must be a Sydney Harbour Homeowners Association resident and/or their invited guest(s)/appointed guardian(s) only. Residents will need to be current on their dues to access the pool area. Delinquencies will result in temporary loss of pool privileges and the residents’ pool key card will be deactivated.

 

To activate your card(s), simply fill out the attached application in its entirety. If you are a new owner/resident and do not have a pass, you will need to attend a pool registration or send in the application with the appropriate funds.

1. You must live in or own a home in the Sydney Harbor H.O.A. If you rent your home, you may apply for a pool card but must provide written consent from the owner/landlord.
2. Your account must be current ($0.00 balance). To retain your pool pass privileges, your account must remain in good standing for the entire pool season. Any questions regarding a balance on the account should be directed to Montage Community Services at 832-600-4142.

1. Admission to the pool requires an active pool access card. Pool cards are not transferable and will not be issued/ activated to any household member if there is a delinquency in association dues. Only two outside guests per card are allowed!
2. The Pool Management Staff (manager, assistant manager, lifeguards, gate attendants) have absolute authority over enforcing the pool rules and operations and safety conditions of the pool. The manager is in charge of the pool and uses his/her discretion to enforce the rules and regulations to maintain a safe and healthy environment. The manager or assistant manager, due to violation of rules, may deny admission to the pool for however long they feel is appropriate, subject only to review of the Board of Directors.
3. Any unauthorized person(s) found inside the pool enclosure when the pool is closed will lose their privileges for the remainder of the summer and may be subject to prosecution for trespassing.
4. The following are prohibited in the pool area: Glass or sharp metal objects, pets, abusive language, running, horse play, wheeled vehicles except baby carriages, strollers or wheel chairs, persons wearing bandages and/or with skin abrasions, and alcoholic beverages. The Pool Management Staff reserves the right to inspect any container and refuse entry if alcoholic beverages are found.
5. Behavior which is considered unsanitary or offensive will result in loss of pool privileges.
6. Do not open the gate at the pool for anyone who does not have a key to enter or a non-working key card. Residents that do not have privileges to the pool may not enter the pool area and are not considered guest. Each resident family must have their own access card.
7. Additional rules are posted at the pool area
8. If you are asked to leave the pool for any reason by the lifeguard on more than one occasion, the card will be de-activated for thirty (30) days.
9. The lifeguards have the authority to enforce rules, confiscate your access card and remove individuals from the pool area for infractions of the rules. The lifeguard may restrict use of the pool in crowded conditions, or alter the rules to ensure safety.

Residents need to use their own access card which automatically registers into the computer. Transferring or sharing accesses cards will result in loss of pool privileges. Sharing access cards with residents that do not meet the pool access requirements will result in the deactivation of one’s card. Please note that residents are not permitted to be guest of other residents.
