House Rules and Regulations

1. Registration, Notice Of Occupancy, Departure

Registration - All owners, family members, guests, and renters must register at the Manager's Office immediately upon arrival, or soon thereafter as the office is open for registration, acknowledge receipt of all House Rules and agree to comply with same. A vehicle-parking placard will be issued upon registration to non-owners. The placard must be displayed while the vehicle is parked on the condominium property.

Notice of occupancy - For security reasons, whenever a unit is to be occupied by a family member, guest or renter, the owner must first notify the Association Manager's Office (via mail or fax) of such occupancy.

Departure - To minimize the possibility of flooding, the main water valve to the unit and the electric power to the hot water heater must be turned off when leaving your unit unoccupied for an extended period of time. All balcony furniture, plants, etc. must be removed, as these items become very dangerous during high winds. Failure to do so will be considered negligence and may result in litigation against the unit owner if damage occurs to the common elements or another unit.

2. Owner Parking

Under no circumstances can you park in another owner's space without permission from the management or the owner. Assigned parking is in the garage and each numbered space is deeded to a unit in the Belize.

PLEASE DO NO PARK IN SOMEONE ELSE'S PARKING SPACE. IF VEHICLE IS NOT MOVED AFTER NOTIFICATION. IT WILL BE TOWED.

Guest Parking Permits

  • Guest Permits are to be obtained at the guardhouse upon guest entry.
  • Owners must notify the guardhouse as to how many guests will be arriving and their names.
  • The guard will fill out the dates for which the pass is good.
  • The passes are to be placed on the dash on the driver's side.
  • Guest parking spots are on the outside of the building on the upper level.
  • Repetitive guests who come to visit an owner several times a week or month should receive an open parking pass in the guest area.
  • Owners must provide parking for renters or long-term guests.

Parking spaces may be used for parking automobiles that are in operating condition and for no other purposes. Trucks, commercial vehicles, campers, recreational vehicles, boats, trailers, or any vehicle not susceptible to registration by the State of Florida as an "Automobile" may not be parked in parking spaces and may not be kept on the common property. This pertains to scooters, motorcycles, and mopeds. Driving and parking violations are subject to a fine. Commercial vehicles of any type are not permitted to park overnight in any parking area or on premises.

3. Lock Outs

In the event you are locked out of your unit during office hours (8 am to 4 pm), the management office would be pleased to allow you access back into your unit, providing you have proper identification or a rental agreement. For after-hour lock outs, please contact Security at the Front Desk.

Lobby doors are secured at all times. Use owner's common area key in Locknetic box at left of lobby doors or press button to speak with the Front Desk Security for entry.

4. Security

All building and garage entrance doors must be kept locked at all times. Do not allow people you personally do not know into the building.

5. Trash

Trash may be disposed of in two ways; trash chutes and trash rooms. Large items and boxes cannot be placed in the trash chutes. They block the chutes and may cause injury to those that must remove them. All boxes and large items should be brought to the trash rooms on the G 1 Level. These rooms can be accessed with your common area key. All other trash should be bagged in plastic bags before it is deposited in the trash chutes located on each level. All items such as box packing materials should be taken to trash rooms in bags or boxes.

With respect to trash generated by work done by contractors or sub-contractors, other than normal household type trash, see Belize Condominium Association Construction Rules & Regulations for special requirements, as this trash may not be disposed of in building trash facilities without permission and payment as provided.

6. Deliveries

Delivery and service personnel must check in at the Cape Marco main gate and Managers Office. Anyone found on the property after 5 pm. will be fined. Proper insurance documents must be presented to the Management Office for service work. No service work, with exception of emergencies, can be performed except on weekdays between 8:00 a.m. and 5:00 p.m. and Saturdays between 9:00 a.m. and 2:00 p.m.

7. Pets

Pets less than 25 lbs and 17" high are permitted by owners only. Under no circumstances are renters or guests permitted to have a pet on the property. Pets should be kept on a leash at all times. Owners are required to pick up after their pets immediately and dispose of the matter in the dumpsters in Level 1 garage. If a pet should constitute a nuisance in the opinion of the Board, the owner will be required to remove the pet from the premises.

8. Smoke Detector

Your smoke detector is very sensitive and will need to be cleaned every several months. You may contact the office to find information on who provides this service.

9. Bicycle Storage

All furniture and other objects must be removed from balconies and patios when the unit will be unoccupied for three days or longer (unless using storm shutters).

THE WASHER MACHINE HOSES THAT WERE INSTALLED BY THE BUILDER ARE RUBBER. SINCE THIS IS A MAJOR POTENTIAL HAZARD FOR A WATER LEAK, ALL UNIT OWNERS ARE REQUIRED TO HAVE THEM SWITCHED TO METAL HOSES.
