Short-Term Rentals: The City of Columbia is considering the adoption of regulations pertaining to the operation of short-term rentals, also known as AirBnBs or VRBOs. At the City Council's request, the Planning and Zoning Commission has prepared a draft regulatory standards that would, among other things, establish permitted locations (i.e. zoning districts) as well as define other regulatory criteria/standards required to be met in order for a property owner or tenant (as authorized by a property owner) to legally license a dwelling unit or portion of a dwelling unit as a short-term rental. To further understand the public's thoughts on this regulatory initiative, we are asking for feedback. The public is encouraged to complete the survey at the following link:
https://beheard.como.gov/short-term-rentals. The survey will be open until Friday, March 24. For more information, please contact Patrick Zenner a4 [email protected] or call 573-874-7239.

Garbage & Recycling Pick-Up Days: Keeping up with the Garbage and/or Recycling Pick-Up Days can be challenging especially when there is a federal holiday. You are welcome to call Stan A.I. (573-282-5877) and/or go to our CHOA Portal Calendar for this information.

Copperstone Corner Update: A Civil Group met with neighbors on February 2. The following changes have been made to the Proposed Development Plan for Copperstone Corner: Relocation of Capital Drive including entrances to Vawter School Road and Scott Boulevard; Nine (9) plats instead of six (6) plats; and Diventures will remain in Plat 101. 

Maintenance of Exercise Room Equipment: Steve StoneCipher-Fisher from Tryathletics serviced our exercise room equipment. We are fortunate to have someone local who can help maintain our equipment. Previously, the nearest maintenance personnel traveled from St. Louis which dramatically increased our costs to cover mileage and travel time.

Waterfall Clean-Up: Columbia Landcare has been working on cleaning up the overgrowth around the waterfall. It looks really different now and should look even better this spring.

Garage Sale Dates for 2023: Our Spring Garage Sale is set for Friday (April 14) and Saturday (April 15). The City of Columbia will be bringing a dumpster to the clubhouse parking lot earlier that week. The Fall Garage Sale will be held on Friday (September 22) and Saturday (September 23). Please note: We will rely entirely on social media to communicate these dates.
