Pond/Fountain Update
As many of you are aware, the fountain in the pond has been malfunctioning. Thank you to those of you who have reached out; we are in contact w/the vendor and repairs are pending. We anticipate that it will be back and running shortly.

Violations of Rules and Regulations
One of the most common inquiries received by board members and property managers is "what is being done about our fellow homeowners who are breaking the rules?"
The Board has drafted the attached policy which outlines the steps that are being followed by management. A copy of this policy has been mailed to each homeowner in Galloway Ridge, or a copy can be downloaded here.
A part of the enforcement procedure is to allow for the request for a hearing by a homeowner who has received notice of violation. The appropriate form to request such a hearing can be downloaded here.
As always, please refer to your current Rules and Regulations if you have any questions or are unclear about what may or may not be allowed in Galloway Ridge. If you are considering making changes to your property, you will likely need to complete a Modification Request Application, so please allow time for that process.
NOTE: If you have a tenant occupying your home, you, as the homeowner, are responsible for maintaining your property and abiding within the bylaws of your community. You will be held responsible for remedying the issue, paying any associated fines, and/or requesting/attending a hearing with the Board of Directors. Neither property management or the Board will negotiate or follow up with tenants on your behalf.
Any questions regarding the above should be directed to your Property Management Team at The Twenty Seven Group. (614) 696-8725
AMENDMENT UPDATES and Enforcement Letters
5/30/24: INFORMATION HAS BEEN RECENTLY UPDATED, PLEASE SEE BELOW:
Many owners have received letters from the Association's attorneys regarding violations of Galloway Ridge Deed Restrictions in reference to fence height, sheds, and above-ground pools.
All owners who purchase a home in Galloway Ridge receive a copy of your deed restrictions prior to, or at, closing. They can also be reviewed on this website under FAQ and Forms. Unfortunately, even if you acquire a home that already has the disallowed fence, shed, or pool, you are still responsible for maintaining your property within the deed restrictions as outlined in the Association bylaws.
There ARE amendments pending but to date we have not received the full amount of required votes to change the bylaws. 67% of homeowners must vote "yes" to pass these amendments. While we have received some votes since 2018, despite the pushes from the Board, door to door campaigns, website promotion, meeting announcements, and mailed reminders... UPDATE AS OF 5/30/24: IN ORDER FOR THE AMENDMENTS TO PASS REGARDING FENCES/SHEDS/POOLS... THE FOLLOWING AMOUNT OF "YES" VOTES ARE NEEDED: Fences -220, Sheds -230, Pools -285. (This includes ballots received in previous years as well as those collected in the past 52+ weeks).
If you have not voted or are not sure if you voted, please complete the ballot, attached HERE. All votes are tracked and will only be counted once, even if submitted more than once in error. The completed ballot can be mailed or emailed to erin@the27grp.com.
If you need an electronic copy of the ballot and are unable to print and sign a paper copy, please email reid@the27grp.com to request same.
Passing these amendments would mean owners who are not in compliance on these issues, would become compliant.
Finally, to request a hearing, please complete and email/scan/mail this form as instructed. You do not need to deliver this form in person. You will be notified at least 7 days in advance when a hearing is scheduled with the board and legal counsel.
While the Board has slightly extended the original timeline to enforce some of these violations, they are fully within their rights to continue immediate enforcement through all legal means.

Food Trucks in Galloway Ridge
Galloway Ridge will be participating with the Central Ohio Food Truck Association from May-Sept 2024 to host a variety of food trucks throughout the spring/summer season.
The trucks will be located at the Galloway Ridge Park. To see what trucks and time slots are scheduled, please visit and/or subscribe at the following link:
Your management company and Board of Directors have no control over which trucks choose the time slots and we are unable to receive or share feedback about same. The same trucks may come repeatedly, and there may be "shifts" which are not filled and no truck will be on site. Many of the trucks offer online/app based, or pre-order options. To keep up to date, you will need to visit www.streetfoodfinder.com/galloway regularly, as the live site updates every 15 minutes.
Enjoy!
