Welcome to Talamore!
|
We are pleased with your decision to become an owner in, and welcome you to, the beautiful
Southern Pines community of Talamore.
Talamore is made up of 87 lots situated around Talamore Golf Course. Our beautifully
landscaped community provides a sense of tranquility and beauty for both full and
part-time residents, and much of this must be attributed to today's understanding and
agreement on what is required to maintain an attractive, compatible and aesthetically
pleasing community. In 1993, the developer of Talamore established covenants and
guidelines to assure the future of the community. The original covenants have been
amended on occasion as new areas were developed or a need for clarification of an issue
was realized. The Talamore Westside Homeowners Association (the "Association") is a
non-profit corporation, established to oversee and enforce the community's Declaration
of Restrictions, Conditions, Easements, Covenants, Agreements, Liens and Charges
(hereinafter referred to as "Covenants"), as well as the property. The covenants
established by-laws that provide for the formation and operation of the Association.
The Association is governed by a Board of Directors, made up of elected Talamore homeowners just like you.
This dedicated volunteer team spends a significant amount of their time and effort on
your behalf to maintain the community.
The Architectural Review Committee ("ARC") consists of five members appointed by the
Board of Directors of the Association. The role of the ARC is to guide residential
development and maintenance through adherence to the established guidelines and policies
of the Talamore ARC Master Guidelines and Procedures.
The links to the right are intended to answer many of the questions that a new resident
might have. Click here for a printable copy of this document. We hope that you find this information helpful during your transition to
the community. If there are any questions that remain, please do not hesitate to
contact a member of the Board of Directors through the MidTal Golf LLC office located
at 48 Talamore Drive, 910-692-5584.
Sincerely,
The Talamore Westside Homeowners Association
Board of Directors

PET CONTROL
Many homeowners at Talamore have pets and a good number are dogs. Our guidelines
require that your animal be restrained at all times by using a leash while walking
in a common area. You are also required to clean up any ‘gifts’ left behind by your
dog. Please do this as courtesy to your fellow neighbors and community members.
Offenders may be reported by contact a member of the Board or ARC.
Be aware that small dogs and cats can make easy prey for loose animals, especially
at night.

SAFETY CONCERNS
The Board wishes to make all residents aware that even with constant vigilance, we
are unable to provide a 100% safe and secure community. It is each resident’s
responsibility to take measures necessary for the security of their own person and
property.

ENFORCED SPEED LIMIT
Talamore has roadways that invite people to walk for exercise during the day and
evening. We kindly ask all residents and guests to please observe the 35mph speed
limit at all times, and we welcome even slower speeds. Residents may report vehicles
traveling at excessive speeds to a Board member, although it is difficult to catch
those who come to golf, but are not homeowners.
