3) Where can I get a copy of the neighborhood directory?

4) I would like to replace my roof. What do I need to do?
Roof replacements must be performed in accordance with GHHA guidelines and receive approval prior to the commencement of the roofing project. Please refer to the Architectural Control Committee page for further guidance on the approved roofing options, the steps involved in the approval process, and the necessary forms.
5) The bulb in my neighborhood light post fixture burned out. Where can I get a replacement bulb?
The high-pressure-sodium ("HPS") bulb recommended by the manufacturer (TAPCO) for our neighborhood light fixture is the Sunlite Bulb, Item Model Number 03605-SU, 50 Watts, ED17/MED, Medium Base (E26), ANSI Code S55, 3600 Lumen, 24000 Life Hours, Clear. It is available on Amazon for around $15 at the following link: https://a.co/d/4DUbMif. Please note that if the HPS ballast in your light fixture has failed or has been disconnected by an electrician, then this recommended HPS bulb will not work. Please contact the Architectural Control Committee for a recommendation for an LED-bulb alternative.
6) I changed the bulb and my neighborhood lamp post/light fixture is still not working. Now what should I do?
Your next step is to contact an electrician. Other potential problems with the fixture include failure of the sensor that causes the light to go on when the sun goes down, and failure of the high-pressure-sodium ballast. An electrician should be able to diagnose the problem, and can replace the sensor and replace or bypass the HPS ballast. Please note that if the HPS ballast is bypassed/disconnected, the HPS bulb will no longer work and your fixture will require an LED-bulb alternative. Please contact the Architectural Control Committee for the standard LED bulb recommendation.

- For securing a mail/paper box post or lamp post, contact Traditional Concrete (Matthew & Connie Enevold – 262-250-7599).
- For post installation, several of the landscapers used by residents have done an excellent job in the past.
- The Gazebo Hill Homeowners' Association ("GHHA") has made arrangements with the local Ace Hardware store to build mail/paper boxes with a metal paper box along with the metal mail box. The cost of the mail and paper box, with lettering, and installation is $215.00 (subject to change). Mail/paper box orders should be coordinated through former Board President Mike Williams. A check payable to GHHA can be mailed to or dropped off at his residence. The order will be placed upon receipt of the check. Installation will occur within two weeks of the order.
