COMMUNITY POLICY REMINDERS CONTINUED provided with information on planned remedies, the violation is able to be "escalated" after those 21 days. Upon the second escalation, residents will start receiving fines in $50 increments. While most Toscana violations are closedout after the first courtesy notice, we do occasionally see "repeat offenses" in regards to policies such as: annual homeowners insurance policy updates, patio and parkade storage, and common area dĂŠcor. It is important to fully read and understand all your community CC&R's, guidelines and other policies to ensure you stay in compliance at all times. A great way to get an overview of the most-commonly addressed concerns is by reading the Toscana Living Guide, which is provided to all new residents upon their orientation and available to current residents at all times on the ToscanaLiving.net website under Documents-->Forms-->New Move-In. This document is regularly updated to reflect staff and policy changes, as well. Of course, another great way to stay up-todate is to keep an eye on the Association email communication, such as the Toscana Tidbit series, community meeting updates, and the Toscana Living Magazine. Please note: the Violation Enforcement Policy applies only to standard violations. There are separate enforcement policies available in the Policies section of the ToscanaLiving.net website for items such as: pets/pet waste, short-term rentals, and parking.

Don't Feed the Animals Speaking of community policies, we'd like to take a moment to address some concerns your neighbors have shared in recent weeks. First, we would like to remind all residents not to feed any animals that are not a member of your household. This includes birds, javelinas, and adorable stray kittens. Not only can feeding wild animals keep them coming back to, and defecating all over, the Toscana property, it also does not allow them to properly survive in the wild. Check out this article from the USDA on why feeding wild animals can be harmful to both you and the animals. If you are one of our well-meaning residents trying to keep the wildlife fed, please consider volunteering for, or donating to, local animal rescues rather than feeding them onsite. Be Considerate in Amenity Spaces As more of our wonderful Toscana residents return to the property, the usable space in your amenities is becoming limited. In an effort to avoid seating and other amenities being taken up by absent residents, we are asking that residents be courteous and avoid pre-reserving space in common areas such as the pool or gym. Towels and other personal items left unattended at the amenity centers will be removed and brought to the Palazzo Centro office for pick up at a later time. We appreciate your assistance in ensuring that all Toscana residents are given equal opprtunity to enjoy their amenities.
UPCOMING PARKADE RE-STRIPING & RE-NUMBERING We are excited to announce Toscana's parkades are scheduled to be cleaned and have parking stalls re-striped and renumbered this month! Please see the following pages for a map of scheduled restriping. During the cleaning and restriping process, highlighted areas of the parkade will be closed from 7am-5pm on the two dates listed for each section. It is recommended that residents park on the surface overnight on the night prior to service beginning in their section to avoid interrupting service. Residents will not be ticketed for parking on the surface overnight the day prior to their section's cleaning/restriping. Residents who are unable to move their cars for this process will be required to reach out the the Association offices to arrange for an alternate date for re-striping/ re-numbering of their parkade space.
