Woodtique Rules & Regulations.

All owners and tenants of Woodtique Condominium Complex are expected to follow Woodtique Rules & Regulations. Noncompliance will generate an initial verbal or written warning, with notification to any offsite owner in the case of a tenant. Repeated noncompliance is subject to a fine (see below) at the discretion of the Board.

Schedule of fines

General Violation of Rules: 1st violation $75, 2nd $100, 3rd/subsequent $150. The above fines are in addition to any actual property damage costs incurred.

The Board does not take an adversarial approach to resolving issues and problems. The Board is a governing body of homeowners who do their best to care for the interests of other homeowners.

Woodtique HOA Board Policy on Resident Disputes

Resolution of complaints, problems and/or disputes between Woodtique residents is the responsibility of the involved owners. Renters should refer any such issues to the owner of their unit. The Woodtique HOA Board of Directors will not take action on resident disputes without clear and documented proof that the owners have attempted to resolve the issue.

If the owners are unsuccessful in their efforts to resolve the problem, they may request the Board’s assistance by submitting, in writing, the following information:

• A written explanation of the dispute and the date(s) it occurred.

• The date(s) of contact between the owners to resolve the dispute and reason(s) their efforts were unsuccessful.

• The date(s) and time(s) that the issue causing the dispute re-occurred.

Upon receipt of the above stated documentation, the Woodtique Board of Directors will evaluate the problem and determine if Board action is warranted.

Animals:

All animals kept or harbored on site must be registered with the Board through a permit form signed by the animal’s owner. Woodtique is held harmless from any loss or liability from any animal on site.

In no event shall dogs be permitted on the premises unless carried or on a leash. All applicable City of Eugene laws regarding animals are assumed at Woodtique. All owners/ tenants are expected to abide by all applicable health and sanitary regulations. Dog feces must be picked up and disposed of in a sanitary manner.

Any complaints about noise or other offending behavior by animals must be corrected by the owner of said animal within (10) days of written or verbal notice from the Board of Directors. Repeated complaints about animals off leash or animals otherwise offending owners/tenants are subject to fines, as listed above. Repeated complaints may result in the Board asking for removal of said animal from Woodtique.

Owners and tenants are expected to respect the privacy of neighbors when walking and taking dogs out to do their business. A good gauge is to keep your dog away from obviously landscaped areas of the complex, and to keep your dog at a reasonable distance from any unit’s windows or doors. This practice is common courtesy and will avoid any unnecessary complaints about animals in the complex. Note: Hawkins Heights Park, just to the south of the complex is a good place to walk your dog on a leash. The fine for having an animal off leash ranges from $100-250.

Owners must complete and sign an Installation of Air Conditioner permission form. All installations of Ductless Heat Pumps must first be approved by the Board. Upon approval by the Board, the units may be installed at the sole responsibility of the owner of the said unit. The Board accepts no liability or responsibility for any such unit installed at Woodtique.

Garbage:

Recycling
All garbage and refuse from units shall be deposited with care in specific containers intended for such purpose. It is the responsibility of every owner/tenant to maintain these areas in a sanitary condition. Each enclosed garbage area has
• (1) large bin for regular garbage
• (1) large bin for paper/plastic/tin recycling materials (see approved list posted at site)
• (1) blue bin for glass recycling.
• Recycling of any items not on the approved recycle list are the responsibility of the owner/tenant. Do not leave these items outside the bins in the trash enclosure!
• Suggested facilities for recycling items not on the approved list include Bring, St. Vincent de Paul, Goodwill.
• Styrofoam and other packing materials may NOT be recycled at Woodtique. St. Vincent de Paul will accept styrofoam and packing materials.
• Owner is responsible for any necessary removal/cleanup of items left by tenants vacating the property, including any costs incurred therein.
• There have been incidents of people who don't live at Woodtique using our recycling and garbage containers. If you see this, please write down the license number and contact the Eugene Police.
• If either the recycling or trash bin you usually use is full, take your trash or recycling to the next nearest trash enclosure. This avoids unsanitary conditions in the trash enclosure area.
• The lids on both recycling and trash bins must be completely closed. Leaving these lids open encourages animals to get into the bins.

• leavinglargeboxesintheenclosedarea
• leaving discarded household articles in enclosed area
• placing boxes in recycling that have not been flattened
• leaving trash on the floor of the enclosure
• leaving lids on recycling or trash bins open or partially closed
• Placing trash in the recycle bin. (See list on recycling)
