Important Belmar Garden Updates

The Board Members of Belmar Gardens have received letters regarding parking.  The letters ask that we address the parking issues in the front, not only the back. Please be aware that the street belongs to the City of Pittsburgh and we have No Control over who can park there.  In regards to the handicap plaques in front of homes, they were requested from the City of Pittsburgh and placed there by the City of Pittsburgh.
                                                                                                                               

Carrying charges will remain the same as of January 2021 but is subject to change if necessary.

                                                                                                                               
Summer is here and all the flowers around Belmar Gardens are beautiful! Thank you all for keeping our community colorful with all the different plants and flowers.  Remember, we have a lot of deer in Belmar so you may want to plant something to keep them from eating your flowers. 

We will be continuing a contract with with Peak Landscaping (formerly Bonomi). Please report any problems with landscaping to our Management Company,  your board member representative or on our website.  We can't correct problems if they are not being reported!

                                                                                                                             
Also remember the rules and regulations on Barbecue Grilles – Grilling outside is permitted in the front of the houses; however, all grilles must be moved to the back of the unit within 24 hours (to allow cooling).
                                                                                                                             
Remember West Nile Virus is still around!  Eliminate stagnant water in tires or other water-holding containers. Allegheny County Health Department officials urge the public to protect themselves from mosquitoes by getting rid of standing water in yards and neighborhoods, making sure that open windows and doors have screens, using insect repellent on exposed skin and minimizing time spent outdoors, especially at dawn and dusk when mosquitoes are most active.
 
​Complaints regarding properties with stagnant water in tires or other water-holding containers can be reported to the Health Department by calling 412-350-4046 and reported to our Management Company.

​Thank you to all of the volunteers who distributed boxes of food throughout the community.


The Lincoln Park Community Center Food Pantry will operate strictly as a drive-up pantry. No patrons will be allowed inside the building.

They have made these changes in hopes of reducing the risk of exposure as well as to aid with the reduced volunteer staffing.

All food pantry patrons will receive a standard selection of available food and paper good items. There will be a limit of 2 “families” per vehicle.

Although the drive up food pantry will still continue on Wednesdays, they have changed their hours to 4:30pm - 6pm.

PWSA - PGH H20

They are offering updates on their website that let you know what streets they are currently working on and any announcements. Please see the site here: https://www.pgh2o.com/projectsmaintenance/search-all-projects/2020- water-main-replacement-homewood, lincoln-lemington
Please direct any issues to H2O PWSA.​


PWSA - PGH H20 Customer Portal
As many residents have been concerned about the high cost of their water bill, we would like to let you know that you are able to monitor your own water usage through the Pittsburgh Water and Sewer Authority (PWSA) website. An instructional flyer was mailed out to you. Should you have any issues or questions with logging on, please reach out to Katie Smerkol at 412-779-0367 or ksmerkol@rubinoffcompany.com

Neighborhood Community Updates

The Health Department reminds all county residents to avoid contact with wild animals or animals they do not know. Residents should have their pets vaccinated, and watch for unusual behavior. Rabies is a virus transmitted by an animal bite or scratch. It is almost always fatal when exposures are left untreated. The rabies vaccine is highly effective when given promptly after an exposure, but is still a major expense and inconvenience that can be avoided. The best prevention is to avoid stray animals, wild animals or those acting strangely as they can be potentially rabid.

LOCK YOUR CAR DOORS! Someone is checking car doors at night and stealing personal belongings. If at any time you see someone or something suspicious, please call the police and report the incident AND report it to the Board on the “Contact Us” section of the website or to your Board Member. You can also call Rubinoff and report it to Katie Smerkol.

Dogs and other pets – All dogs must be kept on a leash at all times.  Please carry a pooper scooper to clean up when walking your dog. If you see a dog without a leash, please report it to Animal Control and to the Rubinoff Company or the "Violation Reporting Form" in this website.  The violator will receive fines from both places.

Please remember, parking in the common driveways is prohibited.  Parking against the fences in the back of units is also prohibited.  This restricts your neighbor from maneuvering in or out of their garages.  This will be enforced and fines attributed to the shareholder.  If you see this happening, please report it to the Rubinoff company or on the company website.

Parking on the one side of the street, on the grassy areas or up on the curbs is also prohibited.  It causes problems for buses to get through and concreting the sidewalks is a costly expense to all shareholders of Belmar Gardens.  If you see this happening, please call the police and then report it either to the Rubinoff Company or the "Violation Reporting Form" in this website.

All units should plan an escape plan with your family in case of fire.
