Exterior Lights On Reminder

Just a reminder for residents who may not be aware that exterior lighting must be on during non-daylight hours. Most homes have a light switch in the garage which controls these exterior lights on the outside of your home. These lights are controlled on a daylight sensor so there is no need to ever turn off the switch in the garage.

This information can be found in the Supplemental Design Guidelines excerpt #4 below:

Exterior Maintenance. The exterior of a home and lot must be maintained in an attractive manner.

  1. No significant blistering or peeling of exterior painted surfaces is permitted.
  2. Any exterior building components (i.e., siding, gutters and downspouts, roof shingles, windows and doors), which are missing, stained, broken or otherwise in a state of disrepair, must be repaired as quickly as possible.
  3. Hoses should be rolled up on a reel or hidden from view when not in use.
  4. Because exterior lights and lamps assist in community appearance and safety, they shall not be removed or turned off during hours of darkness; they shall be maintained in good working order. Burnt-out bulbs shall be promptly replaced. The primary front exterior light(s) (either the garage-mounted carriage lights or the post-mounted yard light) shall be connected to a daylight sensor.
  5. Decks, Screened Porches, Patio, Fences, Arbors and Pergolas must be Just a maintained in good condition at all times.
