Rules and Regulations contain information for:

Bylaws, Covenants, Conditions and Restrictions:   Click here for the Covenants and Bylaws (searchable PDFaccepted by vote in Fall of 2021)

Please make sure you have recently reviewed the covenants and Bylaws. The Board of Directors and the property management representatives do regular walk-throughs to ensure residents are following those guidelines.   

It seems that Article II, Section 3 of the Covenants has been overlooked by many. Prior to April 1, there will be warnings given but beginning April 15 violations will result in a $100 fine per incident. The text below in italics are a few quotes from Section II, Article 3 of the Covenants but the entire document should be viewed for exact wording. The Board is obligated to enforce all violations of the Covenants and cannot pick and choose which it wants to enforce and which to overlook. In case you are wondering, it requires a 2/3 vote of the entire community to change them.
