The HOA Board occasionally gets complaints about off-leash dogs, dogs damaging property, and barking dogs.
We are working with each homeowner that is having an issue alongside Shelby County.
Shelby County has a leash law and the City of Chelsea has an animal control officer to assist with enforcement.
Many neighbors have confided in the HOA that they are not comfortable using our beautiful lake or taking walks within the neighborhood due to off-leash dogs.
Please remember, even the most well-behaved dogs can be intimidating to others. Choosing to keep them on a leash is choosing to be a courteous and thoughtful neighbor.
Please feel empowered to report off-leash pets, and nuisance pets to City Hall.
Per the City "If it continues to be an issue, then it can be escalated where law enforcement and the court would become involved."
