Who is Responsible for the roads in Parkview Heights?
Oakland County Road Commission is responsible for all roads in our subdivision. This includes repairs, maintenance, plowing, and salting. Sometimes the County takes too long to plow or salt our neighborhood in the winter, and because of this, we have secured a vendor to do this for the Subdivision. While plowing occurs whenever there is a greater than 2″ snow accumulation on the ground, salting is done at the Board’s discretion. The funding breakdown can be viewed in the most recent budget under the documents section of this site.
The HOA does their best to report any potholes it sees to the County, if you would like to submit your own road repair request, please navigate to http://mi-oaklandcountyrc.civicplus.com/FormCenter/Contact-Us-4/Contact-Us-Form-43 to do so.

Accidents happen and most of the time, your neighbor may not even be aware this is occurring. If you are unable to find a peaceful resolution, it is the homeowner’s responsibility to seek
How many trees do I need to plant in front of my house?
Per the Declaration, located in the Documents section of this site, the homeowner is required to plant between 3 – 4 Norway Maples (or equivalent) along the frontage of their home.

Additionally, if the lawn between the road and sidewalk in front of your home has a width of fewer than 10 feet, you may qualify for a variance. Please navigate to the Property Request section of this site to fill this out and submit it to the board.
