Saddleback Homeowners Association

HOLIDAY LIGHTS & DECORATIONS

Nov 28, 1999

THE COVENANTS STATE THAT NO OWNER IS ALLOWED TO PAINT
OR CHANGE THE EXTERIOR OF THE BUILDING WITHOUT THE
PRIOR WRITTEN APPROVAL OF THE BOARD. SO HOW CAN YOU
DECORATE FOR THE HOLIDAYS?

YOU CAN ATTACH LIGHTS TO THE EXTERIOR USING PLASTIC
CLIPS OR BY WINDING THEM AROUND THE WOOD PATIO FENCE.
YOU CAN USE STRING OR TWISTY TIES TO ATTACH THE LIGHTS.
YOU CAN ATTACH A WREATH WITH A PLASTIC HANGER OVER
THE DOOR. YOU CAN STRING LIGHTS TO A TREE IN FRONT
OF YOUR UNIT - IF YOU HAVE TO CROSS THE SIDEWALK
WITH EXTENSION CORD WE ASK THAT YOU COVER IT WITH
TAPE SO NO ONE WILL TRIP.

WHAT CAN'T YOU DO? YOU CANNOT USE NAILS, SCREWS, STAPLES
OR ANYTHING THAT WILL PUT A HOLE IN THE BUILDING, EITH SIDING OR TRIM!! IF YOU ALREADY HAVE DONE THAT -
PLEASE FILL THE HOLES AND DAB A LITTLE PAINT ON THEM
AFTER YOU HAVE TAKEN DOWN YOUR DECORATIONS. HARVEY HAS
SOME PAINT. YOU CANNOT STICK ANYTHING INTO THE GROUND
OUTSIDE OF YOUR UNIT, ie ANY PART OF THE LANDSCAPED AREA.

WHY IS THIS? THE EXTERIOR OF THE BUILDINGS BELONG TO THE
ASSOCIATION. THAT INCLUDES THE SIDING, TRIM AND THE
LANDSCAPING. THEREFORE, IF YOU DO NOT FIX THE NAIL HOLES,
ETC. THE ASSOCIATION WILL HAVE TO DO THAT AND PAY THAT
EXPENSE AND THAT EQUALS $$$.


THE BOARD DOES NOT WANT TO BE SCROOGE. IT IS OUR DUTY
TO ENFORCE THE COVENANTS, ARTICLES, BY-LAWS AND RULES
& REGULATIONS. PLEAE HELP US. THANK YOU!!
