Each unit has two parking spaces. Do not park in another unit's covered space, in the trash can areas, or behind other vehicles in the driveways, and park straight in without crossing the painted line. Vehicles parked in the wrong place may be towed at the owner's expense after 48 hours, and vehicles at a red curb, in a trash can area, or blocking a hydrant, driveway, or carport may be towed immediately.

All vehicles must be operable and display current registration. Trailers, campers, boats, and commercial or oversized vehicles may not be parked in the community, and vehicle washing and repairs (other than minor ones such as a battery or tire change) are not allowed.

Patio furniture only. Patios and balconies must be kept neat and are not for storage, appliances, trash, or household furniture. Plants must be in pots or planters and no taller than the block wall. Up to two bikes and one approved storage container (back patio only) are allowed.

Only electric barbecues are permitted, and only on the lower patio. Gas barbecues are not allowed anywhere in the community.

A crisscross lattice may be added to the back patio and front balcony railing without Board approval if it is wood or white (wood or plastic) and covers the full railing, top to bottom and side to side, including the gate.

Only standard "For Rent" or "For Sale" signs, posted in windows or hung on balconies. Signs are not permitted in the grass, bushes, rock, or common areas, and no other signs are allowed. Political signs are allowed on patios and in windows during campaign periods, as permitted by Nevada law.

No more than three pets per unit (fish and birds excluded). Dogs and cats must be on a leash whenever they are outside your patio or home, pet waste must be picked up immediately, and pets may not be left unattended on patios or balconies or tied up in the common area. Pets that are dangerous or disturb neighbors are not allowed.

All trash must be bagged and tied and placed inside the containers, and boxes must be broken down. Nothing may be left in the trash can area: put it in the container or haul it away. Do not overload the dumpsters; overload charges and hauling costs are charged to the responsible owner.
