CLJGHOA NEWSLETTER - DECEMBER 1998

Happy Holidays to all of you from your Board of Directors!

 Next Meeting

The next board meeting will be held Tuesday, January 5, 1998 at 7:00 p.m. in the community room at L.J. Village Square next to the theater entrance.

Please Join Us!

  Rules & Regs Booklet

All owners should all have received a copy of the Rules & Regulations Booklet. Call Menas if you did not. Non-Resident Owners must provide their tenants a copy. This is not the HOA's responsibility. A tenant not being informed is "no excuse" if an infraction occurs.

  Garages

Our error in recommending cardboard or carpets to catch oil drip under your cars. These are potential fire hazards and should be abandoned immediately. Better to use an oil drip pan.

Please note that although garages here at CLJG are for your "exclusive use", they are technically owned by the association as a whole. Therefore, any major structural alterations including electrical or water related changes (e.g. in-line water softeners, faucets, sinks, or major electrical changes like installing 220V outlets) must get prior approval before the Board.

If you have already made these changes, you must notify the board promptly. You can obtain architectural request forms from Menas or from the CLJG web site at http://www.capelajollagardens.com .

 Trash

Nothing may be dumped beside the trash bins in hopes of being carted away! This includes bags of newspaper and tin cans, moving boxes (whether broken down or not), bags of old clothing, tires, mattresses, broken toys, etc. If you are found to have left a "deposit", then you will be fined by the Board.

  Trees & Gift Boxes

As we can expect a lot of "holiday" trash, please crush your gift boxes, wrap your trash bags securely (the ants love the sweets), and don't leave any trash on the ground, even if the dumpster is full. our disposal company doesn't pick up items left outside the dumpster.

Trees must be taken to a recycling center. One is located at the corner of Regents and Genesee Roads. Other locations are announced on TV news and are listed in newspapers.

 Skylights

A reminder to use no fluid cleaners on your skylights or you might develop "spider cracks." Light soap and water works best. Skylight exteriors will be cleaned after the rainy season.

 Car Washing

Absolutely no car washing is allowed anywhere, including inside your garage. The water is on a single meter, paid for communally in your monthly dues. No one unit is entitled to use water for their "exclusive use" in this fashion.

  New Security

As of December 15th, we switched patrol companies. Our new service is Southern California Security. The phone number for them is 576-1994. They will continue to drive around periodically each evening, enforcing parking and speeding rules. They will not be as lax as Rancho Santa Fe Security became. Please be advised!
