The following vehicles are not allowed to be parked inside of the Association at any time unless previously approved through the management company: cement trucks, tow trucks, moving vans, or any vehicle that does not fit in a parking space or on a driveway.
Garages:
- Vehicles are to be parked in garages, exclusive driveways and when necessary, in guest parking. Use of guest parking spaces is strictly on a first-come basis.
- A garage may be used for personal storage or storage of a vehicle that cannot be driven or does not have current registration. Vehicles that cannot be driven, are in need of repair, or leak fluids are not to be in driveways or guest parking. Vehicles that are covered in driveways must be operable, with registration current.
- No repairs of vehicles are permitted unless in the case of an emergency and only to the extent necessary to relocate the vehicle for repair.
- Garages may not be used as living quarters or for commercial business.
- Garage doors are to be kept closed, when unattended, for safety.
Street Parking:
- No vehicle may park on the streets within the Association. The 27-foot wide streets must be kept clear for ingress/egress, allowing two-way traffic flow and passage of emergency vehicles at all times.
- Resident vehicles may stop curbside in front of a unit for fifteen (15) minutes if a driveway is not available. Hazard lights must be on.
- Service vehicles, i.e. plumbing, electrical, cable, satellite, can park temporarily in front of the unit under service when the driveway is not available. Hazard lights must be on.
- Recreational or oversized vehicles may not be parked except for purposes of loading and unloading for a period of time not to exceed two (2) hours. While any recreational or oversized vehicle is being loaded or unloaded, such vehicle must have its hazard lights on, and the garage door must remain open for the entire loading/unloading period.
- No vehicles may block neighboring driveways, street corners, signs, more than one parking space or otherwise cause an unreasonable obstruction.
Guest and Parking Permits:
- Guest parking permits are property of the Association, issued by the property management, and are the responsibility of the homeowner. Each unit is issued one guest parking permit.
- A lost or stolen permit must be de-authorized by property management, replaced with a new permit and number for a fee of $50.
- Use of a guest parking permit previously reported to be lost or stolen will subject the responsible owner to a fine of $500 and the vehicle being towed. Likewise, use of a fraudulently duplicated permit will subject the owner of the vehicle to a fine of $500 and the vehicle being towed.
- Guest parking spaces may be used without a permit from 7:00am to 11:00pm daily.
- From 11:00pm to 7:00am, a guest parking permit must be hung from the rear-view mirror of the vehicle with the permit number visible through the windshield. The vehicle must be parked head in, not interfering the ability of others to park in adjacent spaces. Vehicles not displaying the guest parking permit from 11:00pm to 7:00am are subject to towing.
- Guest parking is limited to seventy-two (72) hours with no space hopping. Any vehicle parked in guest parking for more than seventy-two (72) hours is subject to towing at the vehicle owner’s expense.
- No recreational vehicle, commercial vehicle, or oversized vehicle may be parked in any guest parking space except service venders when temporarily working within a home or the common area. When moving, a resident may contact property management for safe-listing of a moving truck.
- Parking enforcement policy is to provide one warning to the owner of a vehicle improperly parked in guest parking within a three (3) month period. Upon a second violation, a vehicle can be cited and towed. A vehicle parked overnight in the street can be towed without warning.
