Pool Party Reservation Rules
The purpose of this policy is to provide a fair and equitable pool party reservation system for all members of the Kingsgate 3 & 4 community.
The following reservation rules were approved by the Kingsgate 3 & 4 HOA Board on May 18, 2023.
Reservation Approval
All online pool party reservation requests must be reviewed and approved before the reservation is finalized and payment is collected.
High-Demand Reservation Times
The following pool party times are considered high-demand reservation periods:
Friday evening
Saturday morning
Saturday evening
Sunday morning
Sunday evening
Households may have no more than two high-demand reservations scheduled at one time.
After one of the two reservations has occurred, the household may schedule another high-demand reservation.
Same-Week Reservations
Beginning on the Monday before a weekend, households may reserve additional high-demand time slots if openings are still available.
These additional same-week reservations do not count toward the two-reservation limit.
Other Reservation Times
There is no household reservation limit for pool party time slots that are not included in the high-demand periods listed above.
Existing Reservations
If a household has more than two high-demand reservations scheduled, the homeowner may select the two reservations they would like to keep.
The remaining reservations will be reopened to the community, and any payments will be refunded.
Annual Policy Review
The HOA Board will review pool reservation activity during its October or November meeting, excluding the annual budget meeting.
The Board will determine whether changes are needed for the following pool season. Any approved updates will be posted on the HOA website after the meeting minutes have been approved.
Reservation Opening Date
The HOA Board will establish and communicate a clearly defined date each year when the pool party reservation system will open, such as the second Saturday in May.
