Assessments
2023 dues posted on January 1 and were due by March 31. Late fees have been assessed and unpaid accounts are subject to the community's collection policy. Please email info@the27grp.com if you need another copy of your statement emailed to you.
Galloway Ridge has annual dues of $80 per year. At a cost of 22 cents per day, this money contributes to the cost of maintaining common areas such as the pond, landscaping at entrances and the retention area at the corner of Weston Woods and Iris Trail, community insurance, property taxes, and utilities. Additionally, because the community is not self-managed, the annual dues pay for The Twenty Seven Group Property Management to assist our trustees in managing our neighborhood to keep it maintained, beautiful, and friendly.
Dues can be paid easily online at www.the27grp.com, and there is no fee to use a checking account. Please contact The Twenty Seven Group for assistance paying through your customer portal. Alternatively, a check may be mailed to Galloway Ridge 6059 Frantz Rd, Suite 202, Dublin OH 43017. Please take mail delays into consideration if you choose to mail your payment.

Spring Clean Up
With the warmer weather approaching, your HOA Board and Community Managers wanted to give you some tips and reminders for keeping your home perfect for the upcoming months. These are all issues that are regularly looked for during management site visits, but are easily maintained with a little time, energy, and know how.
Siding: The unsightly mold that grows on the siding of many of our homes is a large and unattractive eyesore. However, there is a great product that will help your home become more resistant to the encroaching mess: Wet & Forget. There are other products that could be used as well, but this product will keep it from coming back for at least 6 months at a time after an initial washing and application if the moss growth is heavy.
Faded Shutters: After a summer of sunshine and a winter of pounding rain and snow, your shutters and awnings can start to look a little drab and take away from the vibrant appearance of your home. While in some instances painting is a necessity, there is a cheaper and easier solution that will solve many of these issues. There are several wipes on the market that will restore lost shine. One such product is Rejuvenate Restorer Wipes, available in stores and online.
Fences/Sheds/Above Ground Pools: Please remember, fences in excess of 5 feet, sheds, and above ground pools are not permitted in Galloway Ridge. Please see current deed restrictions for details.
Lawn Care: All homeowners are expected to maintain their lawns to community standards, including mowing, branches, and general care and maintenance.
Driveway Repairs: While the roadways belong to the city, individual driveways are expected to be maintained. If your driveway is left damaged, particularly at the apron, water can seep under the surface, causing them to further deteriorate.
Modifications:
Fences/Sheds/Above Ground Pools: Please remember, fences in excess of 5 feet, sheds, and above ground pools are not permitted in Galloway Ridge. Please see current deed restrictions for details.
As a reminder, any modification to the exterior of your home or yard (painting a new color, fence, or patio installation, etc.) requires approval from the HOA before any work should be done. If you are planning any modifications, please email our community manager, Reid Owen at reid@the27grp.com so he can get you an application and discuss the other items that will need to be submitted. Please note that HOA approval does not take the place of any possible permitting that may be required, and it is on the owner to verify those requirements with the City of Columbus. Current deed restrictions and the modification request form can be found at www.gallowayridgehoa.org along with other community documents, news, and updates.
Thank you for your contributions to our community,
Doug, Rick, and Wendy (Your HOA Board) and The Twenty Seven Group (Your Community Management Team)
