The Faircloud HOA has received numerous complaints regarding children and teenagers riding motorized bicycles, dirt bikes, ATVs, golf carts, motorized scooters and other motorized vehicles on Faircloud sidewalks and in the Faircloud park, trails and common areas. City of Edmond ordinances prohibit any type of motorized bicycle or vehicle on sidewalks (Ordinance 10.28.120), in parks (Ordinance 10.88.010) and any shared-use paths and trails (Ordinance 10.60.040). The City of Edmond also prohibits golf carts and ATVs on any public roads, streets or sidewalks (Ordinance 10.62.040).
This presents an unsafe and dangerous situation for our homeowners and their family members, who are enjoying use of our neighborhood. We have asked the Edmond Police to patrol our neighborhood to help prevent this activity.
If you see this happening, we ask that you consider contacting the City of Edmond Police at (405) 359-4338. Thank you for your attention to this matter.
Dogs Must be Leashed !
The Faircloud HOA would like to remind all homeowners that the City of Edmond has a number of ordinances addressing an owner’s responsibility for controlling dogs, including requiring that dogs be leashed when in public areas. Please refer to Title 7 of the City of Edmond Code of Ordinances available here:

We have had several complaints from people that walk in our neighborhood, and parents of children playing in the greenbelt, that mostly large dogs are running loose and not on a leash (even though the owners are in the area).
Please remember, it is a City ordinance that dogs must be leashed for safety and cleanliness of the neighborhood and greenbelt. If the HOA is notified that a dog is not on a leash in Faircloud, the HOA will contact the Edmond Animal Shelter.
There are dog parks in Edmond, and City ordinances allow dogs to be unleashed in those parks subject to certain rules.
