Page 13 of 63 B. ASSOCIATION POLICIES ASSESSMENT COLLECTION POLICY Adopted by the Board of Directors on O ctober 26, 2022 Prompt payment of assessments by all Owners is critical to the financial health of the Association. Accordingly, the Board of Directors takes its obligations under the Declaration of Covenants, Conditions and Restrictions (“CC&Rs”) and the California Civil Code to enforce the members’ obligation to pay assessments very seriously. The Board has adopted this Collection Policy in an effort to discharge that obligation in a fair, consistent and effective manner. All policies and practices outlined below shall remain in effect until such time as they may be changed, modified, or amended by a duly adopted resolution of the Board of Directors. Therefore, pursuant to the CC&Rs and applicable sections of the California Civil Code, the following is the Association’s A ssessment Collection Policy: 1. Regular monthly assessments are due and payable on the first (1st) day of each month. It is the responsibility of the Owner of record to pay each assessment in full each month regardless of receipt of a statement.

2. All other assessments, including special assessments, are due and payable on the date specified by the Board in the notice of assessment.

3. Assessments, late charges, interest and fees, and collection costs, including attorney’s fees, are both the personal obligation of the Owner of the property at the time the assessment or other sums are levied and a lien/debt on the property.

s, and collection costs, including attorney’s fees, are both the personal obligation of the Owner of the property at the time the assessment or other sums are levied and a lien/debt on the property.

4. Payments are posted on the date received by the Association. Assessments are delinquent if not paid with fifteen (15) days after they become due. If the 15th day falls on a Saturday, Sunday, or bank holiday, the delinquency deadline will be extended until 3:00 p.m. on the next business day.

5. Delinquent assessments shall be subject to a late charge equal to ten percent (10%) of the unpaid assessment or ten dollars ($10.00), whichever is greater.

6. Interest on all sums imposed in accordance with this Assessment Collection Policy including the delinquent assessments, fees and costs of collection and attorney’s fees shall be at a rate of 12% per year, commencing thirty (30) days after the assessment becomes due.

7. A Reminder Notice will be sent on or about the 5th of each month to all delinquent Owners if the amount owed is greater than or equal to the current monthly assessment. A fee will be charged for each Reminder Notice sent.

8. Residents who are delinquent may be subject to suspension of the use of Common Area amenities, restrictions on membership privileges, and revocation of voting privileges in upcoming votes of the membership. If the assessment is not paid within sixty (60) days of the due date, the Association will send a letter (“Notice of Intent to Lien”) by certified mail to the delinquent Owner’s addresses of record, including primary and secondary addresses provided to the Association by Owner.

9. This letter will comply with applicable law. This letter will be sent to the delinquent Owner at least thirty (30) days

cluding primary and secondary addresses provided to the Association by Owner.

9. This letter will comply with applicable law. This letter will be sent to the delinquent Owner at least thirty (30) days prior to recording a lien against the delinquent Owner’s separate interest. The cost of the letter will be billed to the delinquent Owne r’s account.

10. An Owner may submit a written request to the Association to meet with the Board to discuss a payment plan for the amount set forth in the Notice of Intent to Lien. The Board shall meet with the delinquent Owner in executive session within forty -five (45) days of the date of the postmark of the request. If there is no regularly scheduled Board meeting during this period, then the Board may designate a committee of one or more Board members, but less than a quorum, to meet with the Owner.

Page 14 of 63 11. If the delinquent Owner fails to pay the amount set forth in the Notice of Intent to Lien (a)within thirty (30) days of the date of receipt of the Notice of Intent to Lien, or (b) in the event the delinquent Owner fails to submit a request to meet, as set forth in the Paragraph above, within thirty (30) days of the date of the receipt of the Notice of Intent to Lien, then the Board may resolve to record a lien against the Owner’s separate interest. The delinquent Owner will be charged for the lien costs associated with preparation and recordation of the lien. An itemized statement of the charges owed by the Owner will be recorded together with the lien.

12. A copy of the recorded lien shall be sent via certified mail to every person who is shown as an Owner of the separate interest in the Association’s records no later than ten (10) days after recordation. Notices shall also be sent to any

ent via certified mail to every person who is shown as an Owner of the separate interest in the Association’s records no later than ten (10) days after recordation. Notices shall also be sent to any secondary address provided by Owner.

13. After recordation of a lien, all subsequent payments made by personal check will be held for posting pending verification of funds and clearance by the bank.

14. If an Owner is delinquent for thirty (30) additional days after the lien has been recorded, the matter will be referred to the Association’s attorney or collection agent, and the lien may been forced by judicial or non -judicial foreclosure sale, or by money judgment at the Association’s option. Costs associated with the preparation of documents required to open the case file with the attorney or collection agent will be the responsibility of the delinquent Owner.

15. No assessment lien may be foreclosed until (a) the amount of the delinquent assessments secured by the lien (exclusive of any accelerated assessments, late charges, fees and costs of collection, attorney’s fees or interest) equals or exceeds $1,800.00, or (b) the assessments are more than twelve (12) months delinquent. If the Association chooses to foreclose a lien under these circumstances, it shall, prior to foreclosing, offer the Owner an opportunity to “meet and confer” regarding the delinquency, in accordance with Civil Code Section 5900 or participate in alternative dispute resolution with a neutral third party pursuant to Civil Code Section 5925. The decision to pursue dispute resolution, or a particular type of alternative dispute resolution is the Owner’s choice; however, binding arbitration shall not be available if the Association intends to initiate judicial foreclosure.

olution, or a particular type of alternative dispute resolution is the Owner’s choice; however, binding arbitration shall not be available if the Association intends to initiate judicial foreclosure.

16. The decision to initiate foreclosure of a lien must be made by the Board and may not be delegated to an agent of the Association. The Board’s decision to foreclose a lien must be by a majority vote of the Board members in executive session, and the Board’s vote shall be recorded in the minutes of the next regular session meeting. The Board shall maintain the confidentiality of the Owners by identifying the matter in the minutes by the parcel number of the separate interest, rather than the name of the Owners. A Board vote to approve foreclosure of a lien shall take place at least thirty (30) days prior to any public sale.

17. The Board shall provide notice of its decision to foreclose on an assessment lien by (a)personal service to the Owner if the Owner occupies the separate interest, or to the Owner’s legal representative, or (b) first class mail, postage prepaid, at the most current address for the Owner shown on the books of the Association, including primary and any secondary address provided by Owner, if the Owner does not occupy the separate interest.

18. A nonjudicial foreclosure is subject to a ninety (90) day right of redemption.

19. Nothing herein limits or otherwise affects the Association’s right to proceed in any lawful manner to collect any delinquent sums owed to the Association and the Association may turn the matter over to legal counsel at any time.

Page 54 of 63 J. LANDSCAPING Did you know that Cypress Village encompasses 88 acres of land? Included in that space are thousands of plants, trees, bushes, and flowers.

As an HOA, one of our most important responsibilities is maintaining the common area along with all the trees and plants. We are also tasked with enforcing a standard for Homeowners’ properties to ensure the beauty, safety, integrity of our roofs and build ings, and a cohesive aesthetic of our HOA.

WHAT IS A HOMEOWNER RESPONSIBLE FOR?

Homeowners are responsible for maintaining all of the trees, plants, and landscaping located in the boundaries of their property.

For Townhome owners , that means: the boundary of your property starting at the edge of the front roofline and ending at the rear of the garage, including the front atrium or porch, the back patio, the side yard adjacent to the garage and the garage skirt.

For Patio Home owners , that means: the space from the edge of the city street (including your garage/driveway skirt) to directly under the roofline of the back of your home. This includes the small piece of land outside of your gate that borders the road.

Within that space, below are the landscaping guidelines for Homeowners: 1. It is expressly stated that the Association assumes no responsibility whatsoever for any accident, or injury, or any loss or damage to personal property in connection with use of common area spaces, walkways, green spaces.

2. Furthermore, the Association assumes no responsibility whatsoever for any accident, or injury, or any loss or

personal property in connection with use of common area spaces, walkways, green spaces.

2. Furthermore, the Association assumes no responsibility whatsoever for any accident, or injury, or any loss or damage to personal property in connection with the maintenance of a homeowner’s personal property.

3. Trees, plants, or landscaping located in the homeowner’s patio area, backyard, or front atrium must be properly maintained by the homeowner, including but not limited to the following: a. Plants, trees, or other landscaping must be trimmed so they do not touch or overhang any roofs, stucco walls, or wood trim.

b. Weeds must be removed on a regular basis.

c. Plants, trees, or other landscaping must be trimmed so they do not hang beyond a home’s property line, impede any ingress and egress from a property.

d. Any damage caused by plants, vines, trees, shrubs, or landscaping on the homeowner’s property to their own or adjacent property, stucco, roof, walls, fencing, or common areas is the homeowner’s responsibility.

e. Homeowners are responsible for cleaning and repairing gutters annually. Any damage caused by overflowing or damaged gutters to roofs or buildings will be the responsibility of the homeowner.

f. Homeowners who do not maintain their personal landscaping shall be subject to violations and fines.

g. If, due to negligence and refusal of a homeowner to maintain their property, after the 2nd violation letter and/or 90 days of notices to the homeowner, the Association shall have the right to enter the Homeowner's property to remedy such deficiencies. The Homeowner shall be billed for any work performed by the Association.

f notices to the homeowner, the Association shall have the right to enter the Homeowner's property to remedy such deficiencies. The Homeowner shall be billed for any work performed by the Association.

4. Homeowners are not allowed to plant or install irrigation in common areas. If a homeowner plants in a common area, they are responsible for the removal of such plants.

5. No plants or vines, espaliered or affixed in any manner, are permitted on any buildings’ walls. If any home has vines or affixed plants, they must be removed at the homeowners’ expense prior to painting by the association.

Any damage caused to the paint or roofs by plants or vines is the homeowner’s sole responsibility.

Page 55 of 63 6. Homeowners shall not plant any root -invasive plants, trees, or landscaping in their property. Below are lists of trees/plants that are not permitted : UNAUTHORIZED PLANTS/TREES : Olive, Camphor, Liquidambar (commonly called sweetgum), Jacaranda, California Sycamore, Eucalyptus, any Ficus species, certain palm species including Queen Palm, Golden Cane Palm, and Royal Palms.

any trees, plants, or landscaping installed on their property are not root -invasive or otherwise capable of causing damage to buildings, utilit ies, or adjacent properties. Please consult with the Grounds Committee and/or Management Office with any questions or concerns.

7. Homeowners shall not cover or obstruct the “weep screed” of their adjacent neighbors. A weep screed is the base of an exterior stucco wall along the foundation. The weep screed serves as a vent for moisture to escape

not cover or obstruct the “weep screed” of their adjacent neighbors. A weep screed is the base of an exterior stucco wall along the foundation. The weep screed serves as a vent for moisture to escape the stucco walls. Covering weep screeds with dirt, plants, or other obstructions results in expensive damage. The weep screed should be exposed with no less than four (4) inches of clearance above the earth soil or plants or two (2) inches above paved areas. Any homeowner that damages or obstru cts their adjacent home’s weep screed shall be responsible for such damage.

8. At the time of any HOA painting projects, homeowners are required to cut back any plants, trees, or landscaping to allow painters access to their home or neighboring homes. If the work is not performed in a timely manner, the homeowner will be subject to f ines and responsible for all expenses incurred by the HOA.

9. Homeowners are recommended to allow a minimum landscaping setback of 2 feet for all plants, trees, or other landscaping from any adjacent homes, garages, walls, fences, or other structures, to prevent root damage to structures and foundations.

10. CVHOA or authorized contractors are not responsible for damage to any homeowner plants, landscaping, yard art, or any other items placed in the common area. Please see above for definitions of homeowner property.

11. It is recommended that all homeowners inspect their properties on a monthly basis to look for any of the above mentioned issues.

COMMON AREA TREES

ee above for definitions of homeowner property.

11. It is recommended that all homeowners inspect their properties on a monthly basis to look for any of the above mentioned issues.

COMMON AREA TREES In September 1982, the Board of Directors passed a resolution that, under certain conditions (mainly for reasons of safety or to prevent property damage), will enable homeowners to request that the Association replace an Association -owned tree or trees adj acent to the homeowner’s home with a different variety of tree.

Each request to the Board shall be handled on an individual basis. It should be noted that, for various reasons, not all requests will necessarily be approved; for instance: 1. Removal of the tree would have a negative impact on the overall beauty and landscape theme of the immediate area; the present tree provides an attractive view for surrounding residents; 2. An alternate tree would not be compatible with the adjacent trees, etc.

In cases where the Board approves the replacement of a tree, the homeowner must submit payment, in advance, to the Association to cover the costs of cutting down the old tree, removing the stump, purchase price of a new comparable -in-size tree, and the labor charges to plant the new tree. In most cases, the total cost to the homeowner could be $1 ,500.00 or more.

It should be clearly understood that the new tree may or may not be planted in the same spot.

Page 56 of 63 POLICY ON IRRIGATION DAMAGE AND PRIVATE PROPERTY 1. The irrigation system that serves the Cypress Village Community is in place to maintain the aesthetic value of the community property.

2. When there is a dysfunction of the irrigation system it is the responsibility of the CVHOA management to address the problem as expeditiously as possible.

aesthetic value of the community property.

2. When there is a dysfunction of the irrigation system it is the responsibility of the CVHOA management to address the problem as expeditiously as possible.

3. If a malfunction of the irrigation system, for example, a broken or misdirected sprinkler, causes a property owner to be concerned, it is the responsibility of the property owner, as a good neighbor, to immediately report any such malfunction to the manage ment in order for the problem to be addressed in an expeditious manner.

4. Under no circumstances is the Cypress Village Homeowners Association, in the case of a dysfunction of the irrigation system that is not expeditiously remedied, to be held accountable for any internal or external damage to any private property resulting fro m any such dysfunction.

Page 57 of 63 K. ROOFS Installation of equipment such as solar water heaters, town home garage vents, solatube skylights and television antennae or satellite dishes, (where no other position is available without significantly degrading performance), is permitted on roofs per spe cifications and under guidelines developed by the Architectural Committee, provided the owners of the property sign an Indemnity and Maintenance Agreement with the Association who will file said agreement with the Orange County Recorders Office. The Indemn ity and Maintenance agreement assigns financial responsibility to the property owners for any damage the installation may cause to the roof in the future. This responsibility is also assumed by subsequent owners of the property.

In as much as the Association is responsible for replacement and maintenance of roofs due to normal wear, no activity of any kind is permitted on the roofs, including sunbathing.

ROOF REPAIR POLICY

y.

In as much as the Association is responsible for replacement and maintenance of roofs due to normal wear, no activity of any kind is permitted on the roofs, including sunbathing.

ROOF REPAIR POLICY The following resolution was passed at the May 24, 1982, regularly scheduled Board of Directors meeting: WHEREAS , the requisite majority of the officers and directors of this corporation deem it to be in the best interests of the members of this corporation to use the Association’s roof maintenance and repair reserves solely relative to normal wear and tear of membe rs’ roofs, as originally budgeted by the Department of Real Estate, and not to ameliorate damages to roofs occurring through accidents, intentional conduct, and/or acts of God; and WHEREAS , the Declaration of Covenants, Conditions, and Restrictions for within the development does not mandate that Association funds be used to maintain or repair members’ privately -owned roofs damaged through accidents, intentional conduct, or acts of God, and NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED , that the Directors and officers of Cypress Village Homeowners Association, a California Non -profit Corporation, shall only authorize the expenditures of corporate moneys for the maintenance and/or repair of members’ privately -owned roofs where such repai r and/or maintenance is needed due to normal wear and tear; under no circumstances shall such expenditures be effected where members’ privately -owned roofs are damaged through accidental causes, intentional conduct, or acts of God.

There is no way to adequately fund a reserve to handle enforceable future roof damage resulting from accidental causes, intentional conduct, or acts of God. These events are typically handled through insurance

no way to adequately fund a reserve to handle enforceable future roof damage resulting from accidental causes, intentional conduct, or acts of God. These events are typically handled through insurance (which the Association cannot legally provide for the homeowner without a change to the CC&R’s).

Page 58 of 63 ROOF REPAIR REQUEST AND RESPONSE 1. When a leak is discovered in the roof (home or garage), the homeowner should contact the On -site manager in writing or by phone and report the leak.

2. The On -site manager will issue a work order to the Association’s Roofing Contractor, appraising them of the leak.

3. The Roofing Contractor, will contact the homeowner to gain entry to investigate the leak if necessary. The Contractor will repair the leak if the cost to do so is under $500.00 or provide the Board of Directors a cost proposal if the leak repair exceeds $5 00.00.

4. The Board of Directors will review the cost proposal(s) at the Agenda meeting held on the 3rd Wednesday of each month and will vote on the repair(s), (or replacement if it is more cost effective), at the regularly scheduled Board meeting on the 4th Wednesd ay of the month.

On June 23, 2010, the Board of Directors approved to adopt the following rule change in Section K - Roofing, as noticed to the membership in the May newsletter. Effective June 23, 2010, the following rule is hereby adopted: 5. In case of emergency, the Roofing Committee is authorized to approve repairs up to $1,500.00 in total cost without approval of the Board of Directors. Repairs in excess of $1,500.00 must be authorized by the Board, which can be done quickly in an Action without Meeting.

ROOF INSPECTION AND DETERMINATION OF USEFUL LIFE Approved at the October 27, 1999 Board meeting

s of $1,500.00 must be authorized by the Board, which can be done quickly in an Action without Meeting.

ROOF INSPECTION AND DETERMINATION OF USEFUL LIFE Approved at the October 27, 1999 Board meeting Roofs on the townhomes and garages that are at least 6 years old will be inspected and maintained pursuant to the roofing contractor’s or roofing inspector’s recommendation regarding an estimate of the roof’s remaining useful life. During the inspection pr eventive maintenance shall be limited to the sealing and painting of penetrations on roofs that have an estimated useful life of greater than 3 years.

Patio homes with composition shingle roofs and other roofs with acceptable walkability criteria that are 8 years old will be inspected and maintained pursuant to the roofing contractor’s or roofing inspector’s recommendation regarding an estimate of the ro of’s remaining useful life. During the inspection, preventive maintenance shall be limited to include the sealing and painting of penetrations on roofs that have an estimated useful life of greater than 4 years.

For Patio homes with wood and tile roofs, no worthwhile inspection and maintenance program exists. The best policy is to stay OFF the roofs as much as possible, including the removal of debris. Walking on the roofs for any reason may cause the shingles or tile to break and cause leaks.

Page 59 of 63 ROOF REPLACEMENT Roofs on the town homes will be replaced on a building- by-building basis at the end of the roofs useful life as determined by the Board of Directors. In making this determination the Board of Directors may consult with the Association’s Roofing Contractor and/or an Independent Roofing Consultant.

useful life as determined by the Board of Directors. In making this determination the Board of Directors may consult with the Association’s Roofing Contractor and/or an Independent Roofing Consultant.

Roofs on the patio homes will be replaced on a home -by-home basis at the end of the roofs useful life as determined by the Board of Directors. In making this determination the Board of Directors may consult with the Association’s Roofing Contractor and/or an Independent Roofing Consultant.

The Board of Directors may decide to replace a roof, which is not at the end of its useful life. This type of decision will b e based on the repair cost versus replacement cost, leak history and the projected useful life of the roof if the roof is repaired.

GUIDELINES FOR DETERMINING WHETHER TO REPAIR OR REROOF When to reroof a building is a judgment call made by the Board of Directors by taking in to account: (1) the recommendation of the Association’s Roofing Contractor, (2) the recommendation of an Independent Roofing Consultant, if applicable, (3) the age of the roof, (4) the leak history of the roof, (5) the projected cost of repairs versus the projected additional useful lifetime provided by repair and (6) the cost of replacing the roof.

A. If a roof has a short remaining useful life (i.e. 2 -4 yr.) and repairs would cost 10% of the roof replacement cost or more, it is probably not cost effective to repair the roof and it should be left until it starts leaking and then be replaced rather than be repaired.

B. If a roof has a long remaining useful life (i.e. 6 -8 yr. or more), then preventive maintenance and repairs to

t should be left until it starts leaking and then be replaced rather than be repaired.

B. If a roof has a long remaining useful life (i.e. 6 -8 yr. or more), then preventive maintenance and repairs to extend the useful life of the roof are probably cost effective up to about 25% of the replacement cost. However, the leak history should also be c onsidered: Has the roof consumed an inordinate amount of money in leak repairs? Would it make more sense to replace the roof rather than continue to pour repair money on it?

C. A and B are judgment calls that are reasonably straight forward. The more difficult problem is to decide whether to replace, repair or do nothing to a roof that has a remaining useful life of approximately 3 -5 yr. The combination of cost to repair, or replace, and leak history becomes a complex judgment call that may lead to different results for seemingly similar sets of data. However, the Association’s overall policy should be to reroof rather than repair.

NOTE: The Board of Directors conducted a roof study in 1996 to determine if new roofing technology exists, which would be cost effective and extend the life of the roofs. The result was the adoption of high quality, (ELK PRESTIQUE or CELOTEX PRESIDENTIAL), fiberglass composition shingles to replace the wood shingles on the patio homes and adoption of the INTEC Corporation’s Modified Bitumen Roofing System for the town home roofs. The composit ion shingles are warranted for forty years on a decreasing cost share scale and the modified bitumen roofs are warranted for full cost of labor and material for twelve years. The roof life projections for these materials are: ( 1) in excess of fourteen years for the patio homes and (2) in excess of ten years for the town homes.

cost of labor and material for twelve years. The roof life projections for these materials are: ( 1) in excess of fourteen years for the patio homes and (2) in excess of ten years for the town homes.

At the September 24, 1997 Board of Directors meeting the Board removed ELK PRESTIQUE and WOOD SHINGLES as approved roof replacement materials. WOOD SHINGLES were put back on the list at the October 22, 1997 meeting and a committee was formed to restudy mat erials for Patio Home roofs.

CVHA ROOF RESPONSIBILITY (Clarification for CVHA “Rules & Regulations” above Section K, regarding replacement and repair) ADOPTED AT THE MARCH 23, 2005 BOARD MEETING.

DEFINITION: There are primary and secondary features that lie beneath and to the side of the roof coverings and underlayment systems for both the Patio Homes and the Town Homes. The attached matrix provides definition of components found in both Patio Homes and Town H omes. It shall the responsibility of the CVHA to maintain and/or replace the primary roof features and it shall be the Homeowner responsibility to maintain and/or replace the secondary roof features as described in the attached matrix.

The Patio Homes are steeply sloped (except for units that include a second floor deck over the garage). On the steep slope are cedar wood shakes, a material widely used 30+ years ago. Fire -resistant cement based products are the acceptable replacement prod uct. When cement- based products are installed over older roof structures, the underlayment sheathing will be changed to plywood sheathing to meet code standards.

The Town Homes are characterized as low slope or “flat” built -up roof systems. The requirements for such roofing systems necessitated solid plywood sheathing at the outset of construction.

REPLACEMENT RESPONSIBILITY PATIO HOMES The wood cedar shakes and the underlayment (roofing) paper comprise the existing system. Wood shakes and the built -

ood sheathing at the outset of construction.

REPLACEMENT RESPONSIBILITY PATIO HOMES The wood cedar shakes and the underlayment (roofing) paper comprise the existing system. Wood shakes and the built up membrane roof covering require replacement as a result of normal wear and tear. If replaced in kind, the sheathing system could remain int act without alternation. The wood shakes and roofing paper will be attributable to CVHA.

When materials are changed to accommodate cement -based products – to consist of a lightweight concrete S tile or lightweight concrete shingle both with a 40 -year life expectancy – the cement shingle, roofing paper and the solid plywood sheathing according to code will be installed as the roof system. The cement shingles, roofing paper, and new plywood sheathing will be attributable to CVHA. In subsequent replacements of a roof – after the solid plywood sheathing has been installed according to code for the initial roof -- any plywood sheathing will be attributable to the Homeowner.

Metal flashing and roofing accessories (vents, t -tops, etc.) will be required to integrate and complete a roof system and will be attributable to CVHA.

All other components that fall outside of the components noted above will be attributable to individual Homeowners as these components perform secondary structural functions in the service of the roof covering assembly.

Patio home second floor decking repair/replacement is solely the homeowner’s responsibility and is not covered by the CC&R’s roof replacement program.

CVHA will not install new roofing until damaged wood is replaced. All homeowners must be prepared to have any damaged roof structures (as defined as Homeowner’s responsibility) repaired before the home is scheduled for re roofing.

It is recommended that the termite inspection and treatment be completed prior to start date of the re- roofing project.

Page 62 of 63 TOWN HOMES The system will be replaced with a similar multi- ply built -up roof system with a 20 -year life expectancy. The underlying plywood sheathing will not require amendment or upgrading, unless damage is discovered during the tear- off and re roofing operation. Th e built -up roof membrane system (down to the top surface of the plywood), metal flashing and roof accessories (vents, t -tops, etc.) will be attributable to CVHA.

All other components that fall outside of the components noted above will be attributable to individual Homeowners as these components perform secondary structural functions in service to the roof covering assembly.

CVHA will not install new roofing until damaged wood is replaced. All homeowners must be prepared to have any damaged roof structures (as defined as Homeowner’s responsibility) repaired before the home is scheduled for re roofing.

ROOF ACCESS POLICY At the April 23, 2014 Board of Directors approved the following changes to CVHA Roofing Rules and Regulations: Roof repairs and replacement in Cypress Village comprise a major part of our budget and your Homeowners association

d of Directors approved the following changes to CVHA Roofing Rules and Regulations: Roof repairs and replacement in Cypress Village comprise a major part of our budget and your Homeowners association strives to maintain your roof in the best possible manner. However, when a homeowner or service company, that is not a roofer, accesses the roof, it can cause damage to the roofing tiles. Tiles are delicate and not designed to be walked on.

Additionally, accessing a second story Townhome, using your neighbor’s one -story townhome as a stepping stone is not permitted.

Service companies such as fumigation companies, satellite TV installers, solar companies, and painters, may only access your roof with prior CVHA approval, and you the homeowner will be held responsible for any damage caused to your roof.

To address this problem, a new policy has been implemented to protect your roof.

Beginning May 1, 2014, anyone who requires roof access (homeowner or service Company) must first notify the on-site facility administrator via a written note or email, three (3) days prior to access.

This will ensure that any possible damage done to the roof will be acknowledged by CVHA and repairs can be made in a timely manner before significant roof damage occurs.

Failure to comply with this policy will result in a $250.00 fine in addition to the roof repair costs for which homeowners are responsible .
