| If you have
recently moved into the Mariners
Landing community, you might
have some questions about your
Association and the services
it provides. Here are answers to some of the most
frequently asked questions.
- How do I get my parking stickers
and where do I park?
- Call the Association's property
manager at
410-507-2548 for
detailed information.
- I have a repair that needs
to be done on my home.
Does
the homeowners association
pay for it?
- The Association does not pay
for homeowner repairs. The
Association is only responsible
for the upkeep of the common
area.
- What do the dues cover at
Mariners Landing?
- Your HOA dues cover the current
upkeep and maintenance of the
community property and common
area. This includes lawn maintenance,
trash pickup, snow removal
and cleanup of the parking
lot. Also, a certain portion
of the dues are put in the
roof reserve, road reserve,
etc. A portion of the money
is used for painting the homes
on a rotating basis every four
years. Your dues also cover
membership in the Mariners
Point pool and use of the clubhouse
and wooded common area.
- Are there one or two community
associations?
- As a resident of Mariner's
Landing you have the privilege
of belonging to two associations. You have membership in the Mariner's Landing
Townhome Association as well as the
Mariner's Point Community Association.
- What are the basic documents
of the Association?
- You may get a package of community
documents which includes the
Mariner's Landing Covenants
and Restrictions, Association
By-Laws, Architectural Guidelines,
Mariner's Landing Rules and
Restrictions, and a copy of
the Association's parking guidelines.
Please read these documents
carefully and feel free to
ask any questions.
- What's up with the roofs?
Is there FRT plywood in them?
What does this mean?
- Fire-Retardant Treated (FRT)
plywood is used in residences
with common walls. Some of
the chemicals used by manufacturers
of this wood have resulted
in premature deterioration
of the wood. Some of the wood
used in some of the roofs in
Mariners Landing shows signs
of such deterioration. Please
read the letter to the community regarding this issue.
- Is there an annual meeting?
- The general membership meeting
is held in May and a budget
meeting is held late in the
year to discuss our expenses,
assessments, and reserve accounts.
(Reserve accounts are set up
to provide for replacements
of community assets including
sidewalks, paved areas, and
water and sewer lines.)
- When is the trash picked up
?
- The regular trash pickup is
on Tuesday and Friday. Recycling
is picked up once a week on
Wednesday.
- When are the monthly HOA fees
due and where do I mail them?
- Dues are due on the first
day of each month. Please mail
your homeowners dues to:
- Mariners Landing Townhome
Association
Post Office Box 6481
Annapolis, MD 21401
- How do I get a coupon book?
- Coupon books are provided
through the property management
company in late December. If
you do not have a coupon book,
please call 410-507-2548 or e-mail the property
manager. If you do not have
a coupon book or have misplaced
it, be sure to write your property
address on your check when
you mail it in. (Even if you
do not have your coupon book,
you should still pay your dues.)
- Do I receive a bill for my
dues?
- Bills are not mailed to homeowners
for their dues.
- Why am I a member of two Associations?
- When you buy a home at Mariners
Landing you automatically become
a member of both Mariners Landing
and Mariners Point associations.
This gives Mariners Landing
owners the privileges of using
both the clubhouse and the

- How do I get my pool passes?
- Pool applications are mailed
to community members each Spring.
Passes are mailed beginning
in mid-May. One must be a member
in good standing and up-to-date
on their dues to qualify for
pool passes and use of the
pool.

is available to community owners
and their guests. Mariners
Point Clubhouse Rental Information
