Minute by minutes (highlights from recent board meetings)
Board members often find themselves dealing with the same
issues over and over, likely because residents aren’t familiar
with some of the rules put in place when Sunblest Farms was
everyone up to speed on the most common violations.
Remember, good neighbors make a good neighborhood.
Drum roll please …
10. Keep it down. Fishers has a noise ordinance,
and your neighbors have a right to some peace and
quiet. If you can hear your stereo from the street or your
scooter from a block away, it’s too loud.
9. Sit! Stay! It’s 10 o’clock—do you know where Fido and
Fluffy are? Please control your pets by keeping them on a
leash. It’s the law!
8. Ready, set, swim. Residents must show pool tags
when they arrive at the pool—even if the lifeguards don’t
ask for them!
7. If you build it … ask. Any architectural additions
(fences and storage sheds, for example) require prior
board approval. Access the appropriate form here.
6. No parking. If your garage, driveway and the street
can’t accommodate all your vehicles, you’re luckier than
most. But please don’t look to your yard or sidewalk as a
solution. Appearances matter.
5. IOU. Association dues fund neighborhood necessities,
from lifeguards to landscaping. Residents who don’t pay
make it more expensive for those who do. So settle up by
the May 15 deadline.
4. That looks trashy. Our garages are small and our trash
cans are large, but we’re still required to keep trash cans
out of view of the street. Hide your cans with a fence or a
bush, but hide them somehow.
3. Don't be a Poop-a-poo-loser. Please clean up after your
pets do their business in other folk's yards. It's not only the right
thing to do, it's a Fishers ordinance that you can get you a fine if
you don't comply.
2. Neither rain nor sleet … All mailboxes and mailbox
posts in the neighborhood must match. Get the details
(colors, style, lettering) on the Mailbox Musts page of this
Web site.
1. Lights out! Those yard lights aren’t just for show—they
keep the neighborhood bright and safe. When your bulb
burns out, make sure to replace it. And even if a new bulb
doesn’t do the trick, the fix is probably fairly easy. Look for
tips soon at www.sunblestfarms.org.

Selling your house? Don’t forget to contact Treasurer Kris
Branon at least two weeks before closing to get a statement
saying you are up to date on your dues. We try to accommodate
last-minute requests, but as volunteers we can’t always make
miracles happen.
New to the neighborhood? Once you get settled, contact
Secretary Denny King to get a resident questionnaire to keep
our records current.
