Landscaping/Common Areas: We have spent a lot of money to make and keep the landscaping pretty. It is always a work in progress. Please DO NOT WALK in the landscaping or allow your pets to do so. 

If you have deliveries or a vendor coming to the community, please take the time to put in notes/comments: DO NOT WALK THROUGH LANDSCAPE!

Winter is not the time to plant. We will resume in the spring. Please contact Property Manager or Michele Alexander if you have any questions in regards to landscape.  We will work with landscaper crew to assure planting is done appropriately. 

PARKING: Villa Fontaine does not have on-site guest parking. Residents must park in their assigned space and not use another resident’s parking space. The only exception is that they have been granted express written permission from the other owner. Violators are subject to be towed at their own expense. Guests should not park in red zones or your neighbors’ parking spaces unless they have permission.

REMINDER: It is your responsibility to notify Pernicano Realty of any changes to automobile information in the complex, this includes renters. 

QUIET ENJOYMENT: We all need to be mindful that our actions affect our neighbors’ peace and quiet. Please respect your neighbors’ need for a quiet environment by being mindful of the noise that you make. Noise emanating not only from your unit but your car, common and spa/pool areas disturb your neighbors. We live very close to each other, and loud voices, music and heavy footsteps go right through the walls. 

POOL RULES: 

• If you have visited the beach and plan to use the pool, please wash off sand before entering pool          or spa.                                                    

Do not use soap in pool or spa.

• Children under 14 must be accompanied by an adult

• There is no diving or jumping from the walls into the pool.

• The pool is open until 10 pm, but keep volume down in the evening hours. 

• If you use the spa, make sure to turn it off and cover it back up.

• Clean up after yourself. 

• Resident must be present at all time with their guests.

Quiet enjoyment also includes:

SMOKING: Smoking is prohibited in common areas. Balconies are considered common areas as the smoke can enter your neighbor’s home. 

WASHING CARS ON PROPERTY IS STRICTLY PROHIBITED! Soapy Joe’s has two locations nearby…on Friars and on Fairmont.

Renters should be registered with Pernicano Realty. The form is on the website and is downloadable. 

PETS: Remember when walking your pet through the complex that your pet must be on a leash and in your control – always! DO NOT allow your pets to roam and potty in the landscape. We realize that “a dog will do what a dog will do”… so do pick up after your dog. Carry a bag to pick up any litter deposited by your pet (including the dog run area). Don’t assume that it is ok to leave pet droppings or urine in the walkways or other common areas. Pease be considerate of your neighbors and keep Villa Fontaine clean. 

· Be aware of your surroundings. Coyotes have been seen in the community. Be diligent between dusk to dawn. 

Vandalism will not be tolerated and could result in a fine or charges.  One person’s actions effects the community.
