Please contact us if there are other questions you would find helpful to be included in this list.
When I first move in, how do I access the Swim & Tennis Centers?
Bring your Settlement/Closing Statement or a current lease agreement with your name and the new Westchase address to the Countryway Swim & Tennis Center located at 10405 Countryway Boulevard along with a copy of your current driver's license with your Westchase address. This will confirm your new Resident status for the Swim & Tennis Center employees. Please bring all family members over 12 that you wish to have access to the pool, each hand will be scanned and linked to your new Resident account. You'll choose a 4-digit code to accompany your hand scan. Thereafter, you will use the hand scanner and your 4-digit code to access both Swim & Tennis Pools and Tennis Courts.
I live in a gated neighborhood, how do I get a bar code or clicker?
Bring your Settlement/Closing Statement or a Utility Bill with your name and the new Westchase address to the Westchase CDD office located behind the Westchase Elementary School on Linebaugh Avenue along with a copy of a photo ID. This will confirm your new Resident status for the CDD employees. See Sonny or Doug with your paperwork to purchase a barcode ($5 each) or gate clicker ($35 each). Barcodes must be applied to the vehicle by the CDD employees so each car must visit the CDD office with the appropriate paperwork.
Does my community have an Architectural Review Committee?
Yes, but in Westchase the committee is called the Modification Committee. Our documents state that you are required to receive approval in advance of making any exterior modification to your lot. Please see the Modification Committee page for details about the process.
What improvements to my home require a modification request?
Any exterior modification, including, but not limited to: painting; room, pool, or lanai additions; landscaping changes (removal, replacement or addition); pavers; satellite dish and antennae requires a modification request. For more information, review the Modification Committee page.
In addition, in some neighborhoods, you may also have to submit an additional approval request to your sub-association. Contact them for more information.
How do I get a modification request?
You may download the request form from the Forms page or you may contact the Community Association Manager and have one faxed or mailed to you. Be sure to give us your name and address for mail or fax number for fax.
Mailboxes
Harbor Links/Estates, Greens, Radcliffe, Village Green,WPV & Wycliff: All mailboxes and posts should be painted black, with gold numbers & a gold Westchase logo.
Bennington, Bridges, Fords, Glenfield, Shires, Keswick, Woodbay:
All mailboxes and posts should be painted white with 2 gold stripes on the post.
Plantings at the base of your mailbox should be trimmed so they do not cover the address numbers, flag nor be a nuisance to the postal worker.
Can I have a flag?
Yes, but you will need to submit a Modification Request in advance of your installation. For all neighborhoods, banners & flags may only be displayed on a single pole attached to the front facade of the home. Mini flags on wire poles that are placed into the ground are not permitted.
Can I install a satellite dish?
Yes, but you will need to submit a Modification Request in advance of your installation. Be sure to include your lot survey and a location of the proposed dish installation.
What do my association fees cover?
Association management fees, office and administration and management and maintenance of the two swim and tennis centers and their grounds.
About pets and Animals
According to our CCRs, Article XII, Section 4, "No animals, livestock or poultry of any kind shall be raised, bred or kept except that dogs, cats and other usual and common household pets, not to exceed two, may be permitted in a unit."
Your pets should not roam free, and dogs must be on a leash held by a responsible person while outside. When walking your pet outside, you should be a responsible pet owner and pick up any animal waste that your pet deposits. Animal waste not only pollutes our lakes and ponds, it also creates a health risk for children playing on common areas.
There is not a weight limit for pets in Westchase, however, some sub-associations may have stricter requirements, for instance, Stonebridge allows two pets, but each must weigh 30 pounds or less. These restrictions reflect the smaller homes and lots of some units.
Do my dues include membership to the Westchase Golf Club?
The Westchase Golf Club is a public golf course privately owned which winds in and around the Westchase subdivision. There are no special provisions at the club for Westchase residents and your Westchase Community Association dues do not contribute to the Westchase Golf Club.
Can I have a Birthday party at the Swim & Tennis Center Pools?
The Westchase pools are available for use by the residents of Westchase. Guests of residents are permitted as long as they are accompanied by a resident and register with the attendant. The Board of Directors has established a limit of four (4) guests per household. Groups of larger than four (4) can be accomodated at Westchase Parks.
How can I reserve a pavilion at Baybridge or Glencliff Park for a Party?
Groups of larger than four (4) can be accomodated at the several pavilions located at either Baybridge or Glencliff Park. These pavilions features water and electricity and both parks have public restrooms and shaded playgrounds. These parks are maintained by the Westchase CDD. To reserve a pavilion at either park call the CDD office at 813-920-4268 or email Sonny at cdd@westchasecdd.com. There is a $25 reservation fee per pavilion. The pavilions are strictly by reservation. The Village Green and West Park Village Greens do not have electricity or water and are used strictly on a first come, first serve basis.
