Living in a planned
community development offers many advantages but may also impose
some restrictions and responsibilities on all owners.
Maintaining an attractive appearance of our units, harmonious
relations with your neighbors and providing a safe and healthy
environment are also a very important part of our community.
The following policies represent the guidelines for resident
activity and property use. They have their basis in the
Covenants, Conditions and Restrictions (C.C. & R’s) and
decisions/resolutions of the Homeowner Association Board of
Directors.
Please familiarize yourself with them and how they
may impact your use of the common area facilities and what
association approvals are required prior to making changes to
your unit or surrounding common or restricted common areas.

NOTE:
The Association carries the levels
of insurance specified by Civil Code Section 1365.9, and
pursuant to that section, owners may be individually liable to
pay the amount of any judgment which may be rendered in favor of
a plaintiff bringing an action in tort arising solely by reason
of an ownership interest in the common area that exceeds the
limits of the Association's insurance.
The Association’s policies do NOT
provide any coverage for interiors of individual units. It is
therefore recommended that homeowners should procure a
”condominium owners policy” that includes not only earthquake
and loss
assessment coverage but personal property
coverage that will cover the replacement of carpets, drapes,
movable appliances & furniture and any real property improvement
you made to or around your dwelling. Therefore members should
consult with their individual insurance broker or agent for
appropriate additional coverage.
