Renters' Rules

SUMMARY OF RENTERS’ RULES AND REGULATIONS

Welcome to our community! We are happy to have a new neighbor to share our charming neighborhood. The Homeowners Association Board is a proactive group of residents who care about our neighborhood and work diligently to maintain the integrity of our homes.

If you have a question or concern and are not able to reach your landlord for an answer or information, please call the Association hot-line 954-587-1559 to assist you with this matter. You will need to leave your name, phone number and time of your call; someone will get back with you promptly.

Please read the following rules and regulations to better assist you in your transitional move to our community.

Yard Maintenance

Your Homeowner is responsible for maintaining the grass, ground cover, hedges, shrubs, trees and the sprinkler system on their own property.

The Association is responsible for the mowing and fertilization of all grass within the complex.
The Association is responsible for the trimming of hedges and shrubs ONLY in the common areas.
Follow county water management guidelines: twice weekly watering of lawns.

Trash Pickup

All household trash, other than recycling (glass, newspapers, cans, etc.), must be placed in a city-required blue trash bag.
No black bags should be used for trash pickup. Black bags will not be picked up.
Blue bags, along with city-required recycle bags, can be purchased at local supermarkets, such as Publix, Winn-Dixie.
Trash pickup for blue bags is every Tuesday and Friday.
