Tree Policy - Shelby Township and RFHS deed restrictions

Shelby Township and RFHS deed restrictions prohibit the removal of trees in the median (area between the sidewalk and street) in front of your house. If you must remove the tree must be replaced by another with a trunk diameter of at lease 3 inches. If you currently have more than one tree in front of your house you must keep the same number of trees. Violation of this will result in liens and legal action. If there are questions please contact the board. Thank you

Shelby Township Golf Cart Rules and Regulations

Golf carts in our community are a big problem that we get many complaints about. Reckless driving, etc. Remember, per the State of Michigan they are illegal on our roads!

This is a repost from Shelby Township

It’s warming up which means golf cart season is upon us. We just

want to remind everyone where golf carts are allowed and

prohibited along with the rules and responsibility. Golf carts are to

be driven on private property only. The operation of golf carts on

public streets and sidewalks causes a significant concern for public

safety. If you are driving a golf cart on a roadway or sidewalk, we

will impound it. For more information about golf cart rules and

regulations check out the link below:

Shelby Township mandated Cross Connection Control Program Testing

On 7/12/2024 Shelby township sent out a letter mandating that every home with an automatic sprinkler have a Backflow test performed by a licensed plumber. They provided a list of plumbers that could provide the service. The most reasonable plumber seems to be Water Works Plumbing and Backflow LLC, 586-775-0100. He will charge $80 whereas most are charging $100 to $125.
