Membership

Every owner of a lot within The Country Place is automatically a voting member of O.B.M.H.A. and is entitled to one vote for each lot.  Members may vote in person or by proxy at regular annual meetings or special meetings.  If you intend to purchase a home or have recently purchased a home in The Country Place, please send us your name and address.

Recreational Facilities

The recreational facilities within The Country Place are for the exclusive use and enjoyment of O.M.B.H.A. members (during daylight hours) and includes:

 REMINDER:  “CURB YOUR DOG, IT’S THE LAW". 

There has been an excessive amount of garbage (cans, bottles, food wrappers, etc) strewn around the common areas.  The tennis/basketball area and the playground area are two areas which have garbage cans, yet they seem to be the worst.  This may result in higher fees for garbage collection, which will have to be passed on to the homeowners.  We ask that you encourage your children to please throw all garbage in the cans provided.

Scheduling & reservations - baseball field
Robert Conte has graciously volunteered to be on the OBMHA Baseball Field Committee.  We request that to effectively use the field and minimize issues regarding its use, homeowners must reserve time for the field.  Homeowners must submit requests to csecond2none@aol.com and include your name, address and the dates and times you would like to use the field.  All requests should be submitted several days prior to the requested date. A confirmation or comment on your request will be returned within two days.
