About Marleigh Farm

The Marleigh Farm subdivision is located approximately 25 miles northwest of downtown Atlanta in Kennesaw. It is conveniently situated near many shopping centers, including Town Center Mall, supermarkets, pharmacies, and restaurants. Additionally, it is near Kennesaw State University, Kennesaw Mountain, Lake Allatoona, and a short drive from Red Top Mountain.

The subdivision is made up of 201 homes, with excellent amenities for children and adults alike, including a large common area with a children’s playground, basketball court, walking trail, and a pavilion for picnics with family and friends.

Situated in the Cobb County School District, local schools include Lewis Elementary, McClure Middle School, and Allatoona High School.

Marleigh Farm is a covenant community and all homeowners are required to join the homeowners association – MFHA. Dues are collected annually and are used to make our community a nice place to live.

8/15/2022 Action Items and Reminders

Community Yard Sale Reminder

The Community Yard Sale will be Saturday, September 17, 2022.  Take advantage of this opportunity to declutter or find a deal on that item you’ve been looking for.

Trash Cans

Per the neighborhood covenants, trash cans cannot be stored in a location that is visible from the road or neighboring lots.  This means you cannot store trash cans in front of your garage.  Additionally, trash cans can only remain at the curb for a reasonable amount of time (24 hours).  Due to the recent unreliability of American Trash service, enforcement of this part of the covenant has been lenient.  However, American has resolved their staffing issues and is now consistently picking up trash as scheduled.  Therefore, beginning immediately the covenant will be enforced as it is written. The fine for leaving trash cans at the curb for more than 24hrs is $25/day.

GENERAL COVENANTS, USE RESTRICTIONS AND RULES

6.23 Clotheslines, Garbage Cans, Woodpiles, Etc. All clotheslines, garbage cans, woodpiles, and other similar items shall be located or screened so as to be concealed from view of neighboring Lots, streets, and property located adjacent to the Lot. All rubbish, trash, and garbage shall be regularly removed from the Lot and shall not be allowed to accumulate thereon; however, rubbish cans and garbage cans may be placed at the edge of a street or road for reasonable periods if required for collection and disposal of rubbish or garbage. Declarant, however, hereby expressly reserves the right to dispose of trash and rubbish as it ordinarily does in the ordinary course of its business.

Parking

Please be considerate of other drivers when parking your vehicles on the street. Over the weekend one of our residents blocked Plum Creek Trail with cars and a boat. Other residents complained about the blockage.  Remember it is illegal to block access on a public roadway – emergency vehicles must be able to get through.  Additionally, it is illegal to park on unimproved surfaces, such as the grass, and on the sidewalk. Contact Cobb County Police for immediate assistance with parking disputes.  For general parking issues, call the non-emergency number. Remember Cobb County Code Enforcement writes citations for illegal parking (e.g., in your front yard, restricted vehicles, etc.)

Mailboxes

Please ensure your mailbox is in alignment with the community standard described on Mailbox Standards page  under the Members menu on the Community website.  If the end caps and finials are looking shabby, either repair, replace, or remove them.  End caps (painted dark green or white) and finials (painted white) are preferred, but are now optional.

Community Yard Sale

Perhaps you are using these hot summer days to declutter and reorganize, so you have some stuff you no longer need/want.  Your unwanted items could be just what someone else is looking for and would be perfect items for a yard sale.  Save the date for the Fall Community Yard Sale, which will be September 17, 2022. The HOA will advertise the yard sale.
