I didn't attend the meeting and have only read about half of the document. It is well done and straight forward. It answers a question that I have long had about the true purpose of the Association. I also think it is much better to have mail and Internet voting. I can only attend some meetings, but not all, and I didn't like losing my vote or needing to give it to someone else because I couldn't attend a meeting.
Will we have to replace our existing roof and garage door to comply with the new covenants and restrictions?
That is a good question. With the proposed amendment, the homeowner is only required to comply with the standards when they replace something. If you were to put on a new roof, it will need to comply. If you were to install a new door, it would need to comply. You will not, however, be asked to change any existing construction. It would be unfair to burden some homeowners that way. It took years to get to a state of unplanned diversity and it will take years to undo it - the amendment starts the process.
We display our website on our back windshields and have magnetic signs on the doors. Do we have to remove them? It is not a commercial business or commercial vehicles. We haven't even sold anything since having it up for a year. Does the new C&R include e commerce advertising?
The primary intent is to not have lunch trucks, cabs, step vans, carpet cleaning vans and construction pickups parked visibly in the community. This impacts property values.No boats, trailers, trucks, campers or commercial vehicles shall be parked or maintained in the Properties. Commercial vehicle is defined as any vehicle that has a commercial registration, or displays signage. The proposed C&R, as currently written, does apply to all commercial vehicles (PUC) and all vehicle advertising for vehicles parked visibly in the community. However, if the vehicle is kept in the garage, signage as you describe is not an issue.
