Home Owner Resources
We have a beautiful neighborhood.
​
Like many neighborhoods, Ridges at Annapolis has a Home Owner's Association (HOA) and some rules in our covenants and restrictions that help keep it that way. Some projects require approval first. This guide will help get you started.

Dead, Dying, Damaged Trees and Shrubs
​
Dead, dying, or dangerously damaged holly and laurel trees and shrubs or other hardwood trees with a trunk greater than 6" two feet above the ground may be removed without getting A&ECC approval after first securing written documentation certifying that the tree is so damaged as to be a hazard or is dead or dying by an ISA Certified Arborist. The documentation must be on the letterhead or contract of the arborist and include their ISA License Number.
​
Effective December 2012 , all tree care professionals practicing in Maryland must obtain a license from the Maryland Department of Natural Resources (DNR).
