 *******************

PLUMBING: A notice will be coming soon about Owner and Resident responsibilities involving the repiping of each unit.  Please be alert to notices posted within our community and on this website for further information. 7.19.26

Many new plants are being placed on the property that require more than the normal nighttime irrigation hours. Please be alert to sprinklers coming on at any time during the day without notice.  This will be for the month of May and possible longer.  5.8.26

The re-pipe of all buildings should begin sometime in August.   We also plan to renovate the bathrooms at the clubhouse pool and the south pool (new bath vanities, lavatories and faucets, toilets, plumbing and possibly lighting).  Updated 6.25.26

We are currently obtaining plumbing proposals to re-pipe each building and condo unit in our community.  No more iron pipes.  More to come later….. 10.22.25

If you notice any lights out on the property or buildings, please email the property manager at oxfordsquarecondominiums@yahoo.com of the specific location so it can be replaced. 7.1.25.

Our Rules and Regs state that Alterations, Improvements and Changes To Units including landscaping, plants, screen enclosures, sunshades, windows, doors, etc., must have prior approval from the Board.  Check with the property manager for more information before planting or placing anything outside of your condo.  5.21.2025

Patio/balcony sliding glass doors: Unit owners now have an option to use vertical blinds OR curtains on the inside of sliding glass doors.  Curtains and black-out liners visible from the exterior of the unit must still be solid white or off-white color.  This change applies to sliding glass doors only.  3.16.25

Oftentimes when furniture or appliances are delivered to your residence, the delivery people will remove the old item from the property if you ask them.

If it becomes your responsibility to dispose of it, then have it taken to the storage area behind the dumpster across from building 636.  If possible, break down any items into smaller pieces that can be placed into the dumpster and not take up much space.  Our Owner dues pay for the removal of items that are not placed in the dumpster and is an additional expense for our Association.

A pool key gives residents access to both swimming pools, clubhouse rest rooms and fitness center and the park pavilion area.  If you need a pool key, please contact the Property Manager. 11.1.2024

Fire Code violations: Seminole County has advised us that they will charge fines to our Association for Fire Code violations by unit Owners.  Most, but not all, are violations on patio/balcony with charcoal grills, propane gas tanks, improper electrical wiring from fans, outlets and extension cords.  Residents have been advised of these violations before and some have been ignored.

Any fines to the Association and any expense associated with correcting the violation will be charged to the unit Owner and must be paid upon receipt.  Fines will generally range from $60 – $200.

Please check that your property is in compliance with Fire Codes / Rules & Regulations and make the necessary corrections now.  More information can be found in the blue links below or contact our Property Manager. 9.5.24

The BOD has approved EXTERIOR SUNSHADES on patios/balconies.  Only certain sunshades are allowed according to specifications for quality and uniformity.  Owners must check with the manager and fill out an ARB form before installation.  Other type of sunshades currently on the property must be removed now.  More info here Exterior Sunshades    8.8.24

Community Reminders:

  • Privacy/Balcony Walls: No items (statues, potted plants, ornamentals, etc.) should be placed here.
  • Screen Enclosures: Ensure necessary repairs are made to maintain good condition.
  • Patios/Balconies: Should not be used for storage and must be kept neat.
  • Window Blinds/Coverings: Must be in good appearance with no damage.
  • Pets: Max of 2 pets per unit (25lbs each). Pet waste must be properly disposed of.

These measures help maintain our community appearance. Residents should proactively address any issues to avoid notices. In most cases, violation notices should be corrected within a week. Each owner is responsible for compliance whether a condo is owner occupied or rented.  (Posted: 1.11.24)

Safety Reminder: Be cautious when driving or walking in the area of Oxford Rd and Kenwick Drive entrance.   Within our community, observe the 10mph speed limit and stop signs to ensure safety, especially for children.
