Snow Removal

The Carriage Hills HOA also hires a licensed and insured contractor to provide snow removal for the streets in the community. The snow removal services should be paid for by Wayne County since the streets, technically, belong to Wayne County. However, the County has made it clear that they are not equipped to provide snow removal services and have given communities permission to hire contractors on their own. However, Carriage Hills does not have the right to use association fee income to pay for this much-needed service. Therefore, the annual invoice always includes a small, voluntary fee for snow removal. It is up to each homeowner to decide whether they wish to contribute to the snow removal services. Fortunately, 90% of the community members contributed to the snow removal fund in 2019. As the amount of homeowners that contribute to snow removal fund has increased in recent years, the quality of the contracted services has also increased accordingly.
