A WONDERFUL SENSE OF COMMUNITY!
Being a new manager for Montserrat, I would just like to let all of
the homeowners know that while driving through your Association
there is a wonderful warmth and sense of community. A youthful
generation is present, which is evident from the fun basket ball
hoops set up on the street for the kids to rally. Parents please
remind your children that their safety is of the utmost importance
and the key to how to play safe. Relay the message that, although
they are intensely focused on their “street game”, they must also be
mindful and cognoscente of vehicles navigating through the
community. Sometimes vehicles may have drivers who are
unfamiliar with where they are going and may be distracted
looking for an address.
Dusk is an extremely dangerous time of day and it is difficult to
convey to children how hard it is to see them at night.
Additionally, be sure that your children are aware of the “blind
spots” in the community so that they are extra careful before
running out into the street or riding any apparatus with wheels
around a corner or out of a driveway. If they cannot see the car, the
car can not see them.
BOUNCE HOUSE REQUIRMENTS
Bounce houses can be a liability to Management, the Montserrat
Homeowners Association and the homeowner. If you are thinking
or planning on hiring a Bounce House for your next event, please
contact Management to obtain all the liability specifications. You
must name Montserrat at Newport Ridge AND Keystone Pacific
Property Management, Inc as additionally insured or you are
putting every homeowner at risk if any thing tragic were to occur.
DOGS ON LEASH
When walking your dog in the community, remember that it
should be leashed at all times. It is dangerous to let your dog
roam freely and would be very upsetting, to all parties involved,
if your dog was struck by a car. In addition, when dogs are not
being supervised or on a leash they may be leaving unwanted
“gifts” on your neighbor’s lawn. We are kindly requesting that
everyone be responsible pet owners and we thank you, in
advance, for your cooperation!
