What is the process to get owners to abide by the rules and keep up their rental property?
As fellow homeowners, the Board of Directors understands the frustration that some homes on the Ranch are in disrepair and with landscaping that gravely needs attention.  Unfortunately, irresponsible homeowners encompass owner-occupied properties, as well as, rental properties.  That said, our Non-Compliance Process is the same.  All communications are directed to the homeowner of record and not to the residents of the property.
 
During our September 2019 Open Forum meeting we reviewed the “Non-Compliance Process” document with homeowners. This process document shows the steps Sunnymead Ranch PCA takes in order to encourage homeowners to comply with the CC&Rs. This process for enforcement is governed by the State of California and our CC&Rs. Unfortunately, for those of us who maintain our properties, it may be viewed as a very slow process.  Often times homeowners think that because a property stays in disrepair for a long period of time that nothing is being done. We assure you that that is not the case, they are certainly in the process.
~Renée Osburn, Director

Architectural Applications
This is a reminder that anything you do on the outside of your residence which includes the rear yard; landscape, painting, replacement, additional concrete, pool etc., requires an architectural application to be reviewed and approved by the Architectural Committee prior to proceeding with the project. This includes re-painting of houses and fences as well. Give yourself plenty of time to submit an application and wait for the approval. You are always welcome to attend the Architectural meeting.
 
Assessment Payments in the Drop Boxes
The gate station and the office have drop boxes for the convenience of the resident in the community giving them the ability to drop off their assessment payments twenty-four hours a day, seven days a week. It is the responsibility of the resident to drop the payment in the box and to not hand it to a member services representative in the gate station. The payments can be money orders, cashier’s checks or checks only. No cash is allowed in the drop box. The office no longer takes cash for any type of payments. Thank you for your cooperation in this matter.
 
Spring House Painting and Touch up
Spring is just around the corner. This is a great time to paint trim, garage doors, fences, gates and houses. Remember to submit an Architectural Application for approval before starting any improvements on your home.
 
Member Services Representatives
There has been a common practice of calling the gate station representatives, guards. The name the Association uses is member services representatives. Currently, they are charged with access control and patrolling the common areas. They are to observe and report only. They do not assist in any patrolling of personal property or noise complaints within the community.
 
 
 
 
 
Cleaning of the Fitness Center
Just a reminder that the Fitness Center is closed from 1:00 p.m. to 2:00 p.m. daily for the purpose of cleaning the Center. Because the Fitness Center is in need of cleaning every day, we are asking for everyone’s cooperation. A much better job is done if there is no one in the Fitness Center when the custodian’s clean. This takes about an hour. Thank you for your patience in this matter.
 
Safety and Security Reminder
This is a reminder to all residents that they are responsible for their own safety and security in the community as well as the common areas.
 
Things Your Burglar Won’t Tell You (Part I)
This is actually a great list filled with some tips that you may have never thought of, so we are passing this along for your review. It is a lengthy list so I will put a few in each of the upcoming newsletters:
Things your burglar won’t tell you:
1.   Of course I look familiar; I was just here last week cleaning your carpets, painting
      your shutters or delivering your new refrigerator.
2.   Hey, thanks for letting me use the bathroom when I was working in your yard last
      week. While I was there, I unlatched the back window to make my return a little
      easier.
3.   Love those flowers. That tells me you have taste…and taste means there are nice
      things inside. Those yard toys your kids leave out always make me wonder what type
     of gaming system they have.
4.   Yes, I really do look for newspapers piled up on the driveway. And I might leave a
      pizza flyer on your front door to see how long it takes you to remove it.
                                                                                                            To be continued….
