BREAKING NEWS:

 15/07/2025

 Dear Owner,

 Please see below the “Pebble Beach OMC explained” document…

 Pebble Beach is a private estate owned by the Owners of 223 properties. The Owners  

 set up an Owners Management Company “OMC”, as required under Irish law, and  

 appointed Directors who must be owners of properties within the estate. As a property  

 owner you are automatically a member of the OMC.

 

 The OMC are responsible for the common areas, which is basically all the land,  including car park spaces (as there are no car park spaces allocated to any house/Owner). An owner is responsible for the property, patio/balcony and the drains/sewage on the pathway that wraps immediately around the property.

 

The Directors of the OMC are elected or re-elected each year at the AGM. The Annual General Meeting is where crucial matters are discussed, and decisions made so all owners are encouraged to attend and participate in a constructive manner. The Directors act on a volunteer basis and run the estate in the best interests of all the owners.

 

The Directors working with the Groundsmen and Administrator develop plans and programmes of work to deliver on the actions agreed at the AGM.   They are also responsible for ensuring compliance by the entity with laws and regulations, timely preparation of financial information and overseeing the management of operations. Some of these include the AGM, Audited accounts, payroll, book keeping, tax requirements and the day to day operations of the estate.

 

Pebble Beach does not (currently) employ a Management Agent (or commercial management company) to run the estate.

  5. Onsite plants

  We have planted in the three areas suffering most flooding and hindering the cutting of grass  

  as a result. These plants were chosen as they can tolerate the salt air, and are specifically  

  aimed for the soakage of  water.

  6. Bin areas

  Bin bays will be painted annually. There is a bottle bank in place in Pebble Place, by the bin  

  bay there. A recycling bin has been placed in each bay, there is a lock installed. Please  

  contact 085 8780945 for information on the code.

  residents and tenants. Please ensure that any changes are notified immediately to  

  pebblebeachomc@yahoo.com.

  9.. Receipts

  Receipts for payments made for the Service Charge have been issued in April, May and  

  June, those in arrears will not receive receipts and are not entitled to the early  

  payment discount. If you did not receive yours please contact us.

  10. Road Sweeping and drains

  The Road Sweeping and drain clearing in the common areas is being done regularly. We ask  

  all owners to make sure that the drains on the path directly around your property are  

  maintained regularly to avoid flooding.. We have purchased a road sweeper, recommended  

  to us, which is working well.

  We will also have the common area drains power cleared annually  and hope to avoid the  

   issues caused as a result of a build-up of waste. Please remind any tenants (where  

  applicable), not to flush nappy wipes etc, as this is a huge problem for Pebble Beach.

  The Drains that  directly surround  a property are not the responsibility of the management  

  company. They are the responsibility of each owner to clear/maintain. The management  

  company are only responsible for the Common Area Drains.

 A considerable amount of work has been done to clear the Storm drain in Pebble Lawn, also  

  work was done to ease water pooling at the intersection of Pebble Drive/Pebble Walk.

  11. Signage

  There are signs in the bin areas to discourage illegal dumping. Please continue to report to  

  us, if you see anyone you suspect of using our bins illegally. We have also placed a sign

  on the main road (across from Majestic) Directing people to Pebble Beach.

  Please bare in mind when reporting to the administrator or a director where you have  

  Witnessed persons/vehicle illegally dumping that you will be required to speak to Waterford  

  County council regarding what you witnessed and may also be required to give evidence if

  The matter is brought to court.

  as soon as you see them, so we can arrange for maintenance to be carried out.

  Onsite at their own risk.

  attached to the website (bottom right hand corner of the home page under documents). You  

  should email Christopher Merrigan to kick off the claim and he will guide you through it.
