Manager’s Notes
Although the pool season is over, we continue to offer events at the clubhouse to
keep our Association members engaged and entertained. I hope you will
consider participating in some of our upcoming events such as the family
Halloween Gathering and the14th Annual Wine (and beer) Tasting Event for
adults. These annual events are a great way to stay connected with
neighborhood residents.
I want to wish three of our staff members, Brady, Cristian, and Tommy good luck
as they participate in the Tough Mudder competition this month. This challenging
event encompasses 20 obstacles over 10 miles. Good luck guys!
I’m looking forward to seeing our neighborhood kiddos in costume on the 28th at
our Halloween Gathering!

2017 Newport Landing Assessment PAST DUE!
As of 9/26/2017, 158 of 160 Newport Landing homeowners have paid their 2017 assessment and 1 outstanding from 2016. If
you haven’t paid yet, liens will be issued.
All assessments now must include an additional $25.00 late fee.
Assessments pay for essential health and safety services like trash collection and streetlights.
The assessment also pays for common ground maintenance and insurance.
Reminder – NO Boat, RV, trailer
Boat, RV, trailer owners – If you bring your trailer, boat or RV home please limit parking to 24hrs if it is not parked inside your
garage.
Golf Cart use in Newport Landing
Due to many complaints about underage children operating a golf cart in Newport Landing, NLHA has reached out to the St. Louis
County Police, who in turn have clarified though the judge for a ruling.
--To operate a golf cart on the streets in Newport Landing, the driver MUST have a valid drivers license.
--Golf carts are allowed only on the streets, not on sidewalks, common ground or private property.
--The carts are not allowed on major streets such as Hawkins or Gravois.
--Operators of a carts MUST obey all traffic laws and stop signs.
--If operated on the street the cart MUST be insured on a separate policy, not homeowners policy.
--The carts must obey the 25 mph posted limits.
--If the cart is gas powered, it must be licensed.
If anyone observes any violation or if they operate on your property please call St. Louis County Police at 636-225-0425
The NLHA board still is currently looking for candidates
to represent our neighborhood.
There are positions on the NLHA board and future positions on the OLRA board that need to be filled.
It is important to the subdivision that our boards stay fully staffed with residents who are willing to devote a small amount of their time to keep Newport Landing a great place to live. If you are interested or have questions about what is involved, please contact
us at [email protected]
Dog Doo!
PLEASE remember to take along a plastic bag with you when you walk your dog! We have received a number of complaints on the
failure of some residents to pick up after one’s dog on another resident’s property.
Fall Reminders
If you would like to subscribe to weekly Yard Waste pickup, call Waste Management at 314-506-4700. Identify yourself as a
Newport Landing resident to get our discounted rate for 2017
Keep Our Neighborhood Beautiful
To help keep our neighborhood beautiful, please keep trash cans out of view of the street. We have had numerous complaints
from neighbors of trash cans stored in front of homes and garages.
Again a reminder, you can notify the Waste Management department to get a larger container for your recyclables. Each home comes with a black receptacle assigned to their home with an ID number. The Waste Management Company will trade your origi-
nal can with a larger one, at no charge to you. The number is 314-615-4130.
Property Maintenance Items
The following is a list of items, which are important in maintaining the appearance and property values of our Newport Landing
homes and neighborhood.
· Repair peeling paint and deteriorated wood trim; remove mold and mildew on vinyl siding.
· Trim shrubs and trees which create an obstruction to the public sidewalk.
Tree branches must be maintained at a clearance of at least 7 feet from the sidewalk per
St. Louis County restrictions.
Street Lights
The second largest expense item in our budget is the money we spend on electricity for the street lights. Please, if you see a
street light off at night or on during the day – especially overcast days contact Ameren UE at (314) 342-1000. They will ask for
the metal tag # at the top of the pole.
Landscaping
NLHA is currently soliciting bids for removing the three remaining Austrian Pines with diplopia blight, and the sad looking ash in the Atlantic Crossing cul de sac, do the turf restoration along Hawkins, and severely prune the burning bushes that are blocking the
view on the Atlantic Crossing cul de sac.

HALLOWEEN SAFETY TIPS
Walk Safely
• Children under 12 should trick-or-treat and cross streets with an adult. Cross the street at corners, using traffic signals and cross-
walks.
• Look left, right and left again when crossing and keep looking as you cross. Walk--don’t run, across the street.
• Teach children to make eye contact with drivers before crossing in front of them.
• Always walk on sidewalks or paths. If there are no sidewalks, walk facing traffic as far to the left as possible. Children should
walk on direct routes with the fewest street crossings.
• Watch for cars that are turning or backing up. Teach children to never dart out into the street or cross between parked cars.
Trick or Treat With an Adult
• Children under the age of 12 should not be out at night without adult supervision. If kids are mature enough to be out on their own,
they should stick to familiar areas that are well lit and trick-or-treat in groups.
Keep Costumes Both Creative and Safe • When selecting a costume, make sure it is the right size to prevent trips and falls.
• Decorate costumes and bags with reflective tape or stickers and, if possible, choose light colors.
• Choose face paint and makeup whenever possible instead of masks, which can obstruct a child’s vision.
• Have kids carry glow sticks or flashlights to help them see and be seen by drivers.
Double Check Candy and Costumes • Check treats for signs of tampering before children are allowed to eat them.
• Remind children to eat only treats in their original, unopened wrappers.
• Candy should be thrown away if the wrapper is faded or torn, or if the candy is unwrapped.
• While glow sticks are good for visibility, remember that the liquid in glow sticks is also hazardous, so parents should remind chil-
dren not to chew on or break them.
• Look for non-toxic designations when choosing Halloween makeup.
Drive Extra Safely on Halloween
• Slow down and be especially alert in residential neighborhoods. Children are excited on Halloween and may move in unpredicta-
ble ways.
• Take extra time to look for kids at intersections, on medians and on curbs.
• Enter and exit driveways and alleys slowly and carefully.
• Eliminate any distractions inside your car so you can concentrate on the road and your surroundings.
• Drive slowly, anticipate heavy pedestrian traffic and turn your headlights on earlier in the day to spot children from greater dis-
tances.

“What Do All of These Acronyms Stand For?”
ROHA, NLHA, OLRA: What You Need to Know
1. So, what do the acronyms stand for?
ROHA — Remington Oaks Homeowners Association
NLHA — Newport Landing Homeowners Association
OLRA — Oaks Landing Recreational Association
2. What does each association actually do?
ROHA governs the Remington Oaks and Chestnut Pointe neighborhoods (AKA the “tree-themed” streets), and
NLHA governs the Newport Landing neighborhood (mostly “sea-themed” streets on the other side of
Hawkins). Homeowners belong to ONE of the two organizations based on their address. OLRA governs the
Clubhouse, swimming pools and tennis courts.
3. Can you give me a refresher on the annual assessments?
Each resident receives two assessments each year: one from either ROHA or NLHA, and one from OLRA. The
ROHA and NLHA assessments are distributed in late December and are due Feb. 1 each year. The OLRA
assessments are distributed in late January and are due March 1 each year.
4. What, exactly, do the fees cover?
ROHA fees cover common ground maintenance (including Lake Remington), main entrances maintenance,
insurance and streetlights for the Remington Oaks and Chestnut Pointe neighborhoods. NLHA fees cover
trash pickup, common ground maintenance (including the Newport Landing pond), main entrances
maintenance, insurance and streetlights for the Newport Landing neighborhoods. OLRA fees cover Clubhouse
maintenance, insurance, swimming pools, tennis courts, fitness rooms, and Clubhouse-sponsored neighborhood
activities.
5. I don’t ever use the Clubhouse facilities. Do I still have to pay the OLRA fee?
Yes. Per the governing indentures, all households are required to pay both the appropriate Homeowners
Association fee and the Recreational Association assessments.
6. When do I get my 2017 ID stickers and pool guest pass?
ID stickers and guest passes will be made available in April to residents who are current on their paid
assessments. Residents must be up-to-date on assessments for both their Homeowners Association and the
Recreational Association to receive ID stickers and guest pass.
7. I still have questions. Who do I contact?
The back page of the Recreational Association Newsletter features contact information for each homeowners
association. OLRA contact information and monthly meeting minutes are also included in the newsletter. All
