Dear Residents,
Residents continue making changes to their unit exteriors and to the Common and Limited Common areas without Board approval. This is a clear violation of our governing documents.
Any alterations, modifications, additions or other changes to the grounds or to the exterior walls or roof of any unit must receive prior written approval of the Board. Alterations that violate these rules will be removed at the owners’ expense. - Rules and Regulations - pg. 6 A.
Alterations requiring prior approval include those to exterior doors, exterior windows, garage doors, gutters, downspouts and related drainage, Florida rooms, screened porches, decks, and landscaping.
Changes to Common and Limited Common area (everything outside the units) also require prior Board approval. “In limited common elements adjacent to each unit, the resident may plant flowers, rose bushes, evergreens and other decorative greenery. The maintenance of these planted items is the responsibility of the unit owner/resident. Trees (including fruit trees) and vegetables are prohibited.” Rules and Regulations - pg. 6 B.
The governing document of the Silver Valley Condominium Association states:
(g) Common Area means all of the Condominium property except the Units.
(p) Limited Common Area means those parts of the Common Areas reserved for the use of a certain Unit or Units to the exclusion of all other Units. A written Request for Change form must be completed and submitted to the management company for Board approval before you make changes. If you have already made changes without approval, you may be subject to Board action requiring you to remove or revise those changes, at your expense.
Several cases are currently under review.
Download a Request for Change form from our website or call Associated Property Management at 330.722.3000, and ask them to mail you a copy.
The Board
