I. Introduction

CATHEDRAL SPRINGS HOMEOWNERS ASSOCIATION (“Association”) was designed and developed to

serve as the primary and secondary residence for many of its Owners. As in any society, common rules

of courtesy must be observed in order that the common good of all of the residents are served.

The following is the outline of the Rules and Regulations for the residential portion and the Common

Areas, which are intended to aid the residents, their family members, tenants, and guests in determining

a reasonable method of conduct and to provide information regarding the use of services.

These Rules and Regulations are intended to be changed and/or adjusted, as necessary, from time to

time to reflect the needs of the majority of the members. If a member has any suggestions for any

adjustments to the Rules and Regulations, the matter should be brought to the attention of the

Manager.

EVERY MEMBER IS RESPONSIBLE FOR ENSURING THAT MEMBERS OF THEIR FAMILY OR GUESTS OF THE

RESIDENT OR TENANTS ARE AWARE OF THESE RULES AND REGULATIONS, AND COMPLY WITH THEM.

Each Owner shall have the right to lease his or her Unit and interest in the common Area together,

provided that such lease is in writing and provides that the lease states the tenant shall be bound by all

provisions of the Association’s governing documents, and that ANY violation shall constitute a default

under such lease. The Owner shall provide a copy of any lease to the Board within seven (7) days of

occupancy of the Unit. The Owner shall also notify the Association, in writing, of the names of all

tenants’ occupancy. Said Unit shall be leased in its entirety, and no subleasing of any portion of the Unit

separate from the Unit as a whole is permitted. A $250.00 fine will be imposed for failure to provide the

lease within seven (7) days to the Management Office for the Board of Directors (see the CC&R’s Article

VI, Section 2, Page 20).

No lease shall be for the transient or hotel purposes. Any such lease that is either for a period less than

thirty (30) days, or pursuant to which the Lessor provides any services normally associated with a hotel

shall be deemed to be for transient or hotel purposes (see the CC&R’s Article VI, Section 2, Page 20).

A $1,000.00 refundable Security Deposit will be required on all rentals to cover potential damage to

Common Area caused by the tenants or guests. A $300.00 Pet Deposit is required if there is a Pet.

Homeowners are required to meet with Management to discuss Rules and Regulations, keys and

remotes. Failure to give the Management Office the Owner’s primary telephone number and current

address will result in a fine.

The Board of Directors of the Association is authorized to impose penalties, special assessments, special

individual assessments or fines, and to take any reasonable action required to ensure that these Rules

and Regulations, intended for the quiet enjoyment by the residents, are properly observed. All costs

incurred in enforcing these Rules and Regulations may be charged against the individual Unit Owner. In

the event the owner fails to pay for costs incurred in enforcing these Rules and Regulations, the Board of

Page 6: RULES REGULATIONS AND POLICIES€¦ · RULES REGULATIONS AND POLICIES CATHEDRAL SPRINGS HOMEOWNERS ASSOCIATION 31-200 LANDAU BOULEVARD CATHEDRAL CITY, CALIFORNIA 92234 cathedralspringshoa@hotmail.com

Directors shall have the power to specially assess their Unit and collect such special assessments

through foreclosure proceedings as more specifically set forth in the CC&R’s.

The Board of Directors shall have the right to delegate any of its powers to regulate and enforce these

Rules and Regulations to the Manager or to a Committee of the Board of Directors.

IV. AIR CONDITIONING/HEATING/PLUMBING/ELECTRICAL

The Association does not provide any maintenance services inside your Unit. Maintenance is an

Owner’s responsibility and calling the Association only delays reaching someone who can solve your

problems. The Yellow Pages and Internet list many firms that provide 24-hour service. If you are an

absentee Owner, try to arrange for a friend or neighbor to run water in your sinks and flush the toilets to

keep water in the traps or arrange for a service to watch your Unit while you are away.

V. WINDOW/SPRINKLER OVER-SPRAY

Windows ARE NOT to be covered with newspaper, aluminum foil, sheets, reflective materials, or other

materials not specifically intended as window treatment. Light film, such as used on automobile

windows, is permitted.

The Association will not be responsible for water entering your Unit through open windows. It is

impossible to eliminate all sprinkler over-spray, especially when there is a breeze. White "film" on

windows may be removed with a household de-scaler.

VI. OWNER’S MAINTENANCE RESPONSIBILITY

The Association has no responsibility to repair or maintain the following:

A. Air conditioning units and condensate lines.

B. Any additions done by the Homeowner after original construction was completed.

C. Glass windows, sliders, screens, doors and security doors.

D. Your security system.

E. Lights serviced by your electrical meter, including lights on the patios or decks.

F. All personal items.

G. All inside the Unit plumbing and pipes leading to main plumbing.

VII. COMMON AREA

A. SIGNS

Per Civil Code §712, one (1) 12” X 18” For Sale or Lease sign is allowed.

B. PLANTING

Residents may not plant or change the plantings in the Common Area without the express

written approval of the Board of Directors. No planters may be placed in the breezeways of the

upper level, except cacti, which requires little water. If cacti are in planters, a saucer must be

placed under them to prevent water seepage. Water causes stains and rots the floor of the

Page 8: RULES REGULATIONS AND POLICIES€¦ · RULES REGULATIONS AND POLICIES CATHEDRAL SPRINGS HOMEOWNERS ASSOCIATION 31-200 LANDAU BOULEVARD CATHEDRAL CITY, CALIFORNIA 92234 cathedralspringshoa@hotmail.com

8

upper breezeways. Any planters with dead plants or nothing in them in breezeways must be

removed. The breezeways may not be used for storage.

C. LANDSCAPE/ARCHITECTURAL

NO UNAUTHORIZED LANDSCAPING. Any unauthorized landscaping is subject to removal, and

any expense incurred in the removal will be charged to the responsible Owner.

NO UNAUTHORIZED CHANGES TO THE ARCHITECTURE. No changes may be made without the

prior approval of the Board of Directors and/or the Architectural Committee.

All requests to build, construct, alter, change, or redesign an existing or addition of a peripheral

structure shall not be permitted without the written approval of the Architectural Committee

and/or the Board of Directors. The Board of Directors may impose reasonable Rules and

Regulations as a condition to precedent to the construction, including but not limited to,

providing the Association may also inspect the property and require the project to be completed

within a set time frame. The cost of the inspection, at the discretion of the board of directors,

may be borne by the individual Unit Owner.

ALL ROOMS OF THE SECOND FLOOR UNITS MUST BE CARPETED EXCEPT THE KITCHEN/DINING

ROOM AREA, IN FRONT OF THE BAR, AND THE BATHROOMS. EFFECTIVE NOVEMBER 15, 2008,

ANY UNIT USING FLOORING OTHER THAN CARPET MUST HAVE WRITTEN BOARD APPROVAL

PRIOR TO INSTALLATION. ANY UNIT USING ANY TYPE OF HARD SURFACE FLOORING AFTER

DECEMBER 1999, MUST HAVE WRITTEN BOARD APPROVAL.

D. PEST CONTROL

The Association has contracted for monthly pest control services. Interior service is available at

a special rate per month, which is paid directly to the contractor. You must be home to receive

interior service and call the contractor for an appointment.

E. DAMAGE

Any damage caused by a resident, his or her family members, guests, or pets to the Common

Area is the responsibility of the Owner of the Unit. The Board may assess an individual Unit

Owner for costs and repairs of damage to the Common area. It will be the Owner’s

responsibility to be reimbursed by his or her guests or tenants. The Association will not divide

the costs.

F. ROLLERBLADES, ROLLER SKATES, SKATEBOARDS, BICYCLES, BALL PLAYING

Baseball, softball, golf or any other type of activity/sport that uses a ball or device capable of

causing damage to automobiles or Common Area is prohibited. The use of SKATEBOARDS ARE

PROHIBITED everywhere in the complex (this includes any type of skateboard with any type of

wheel configuration with or without a motor). Rollerblading, roller-skating, bicycles, scooters,

toy cars (motorized, peddle type or push type) and any other type of wheeled toy or exercise

apparatus/equipment excluding skateboards, which are prohibited entirely) are permitted on

prohibited.

G. GARAGE/YARD/ESTATE SALES

No garage, yard, or estate sales or similar activity shall be conducted within the Association

including any residence, carport, Common Area, or outside of any building therein.

H. PETS

The Association is sympathetic to those residents who desire to have and enjoy pets. At the

same time, certain rules are necessary to ensure that pets maintained on the property do not

impose a nuisance or burden on other residents and guests. Effective June 30, 2004, ONLY ONE

DOMESTIC ANIMAL is allowed in the Common Area or in the Unit. Anyone violating this Rule

will also be fined, with the exception of those Grandfathered in. The term “domestic animal” is

defined as dogs, cats, hamsters, gerbils, fish, and birds of a type that are normally kept in a

household. Otherwise, no other animal may be maintained on the premises without the written

authorization of the Board of Directors of the Association.

ALL pets that are in the Common Area MUST be controlled by a leash AT ALL TIMES when

outside of the Unit. No pet shall be allowed to be kept on the patio or balcony deck

unattended. All DAMAGE to the Common Area caused by any animal is the responsibility of the

Owner of the Unit. If any pet creates a continual nuisance to other residents by barking or by

some other manner, the Board of Directors may PERMANENTLY disallow the occupancy of the

pet on the Association property. The Association provides several Pet Waste Stations which

include free pet waste bags and disposal receptacles. Where a pet commits WASTE, the

Resident is responsible for cleaning up the waste and disposing of the waste in tightly sealed

plastic bags to be placed in a Pet Waste Receptacle or dumpster. No feeding of animals in the

breezeways is allowed. Food left outside draws bugs and rodents. Fines will be issued for non-

compliance.

four (4) linear feet of the patio/balcony perimeter railing. On second floor balconies, potted

swimwear is permitted on the balcony rails. No windsocks or chimes are permitted.

L. DUMPSTERS/TRASH

Failure to place trash in the dumpsters attracts insects, rodents and other pests. This will result

in fines being issued.

The Dumpsters are for only domestic household trash that originated within the complex. The

recycling bins are only for disposal of approved recycling waste that was generated and

originates from within the complex. Disposal of illegal materials such as oil, construction waste,

etc. in the dumpsters and/or recycling bins will result in fines, penalties and costs for the

homeowner responsible. Disposal of waste that originated from outside the community will

result in fines, penalties and costs for the homeowner responsible.

For large bulky items, mattresses, appliances, furniture, and cabinets, etc., please bring them to

the designated Bulky Item Pick Up area, which is located in the southeast corner of the

parking space where a vehicle overhangs and obstructs a sidewalk), landscaped areas or anywhere other

than a designated parking space, covered or uncovered, is not permitted and may result in fine and/or

with the Cathedral Springs Fine Schedule. The Board will accept signed complaint statements from

other residents in regards to any violation including speed.

hours are disturbing the peace and the police will be called. This will result in a fine.

2. No pets are permitted in the pools areas. This is against California Health Laws.

Page 14: RULES REGULATIONS AND POLICIES€¦ · RULES REGULATIONS AND POLICIES CATHEDRAL SPRINGS HOMEOWNERS ASSOCIATION 31-200 LANDAU BOULEVARD CATHEDRAL CITY, CALIFORNIA 92234 cathedralspringshoa@hotmail.com

3. Bathing suits must be worn at all times when using the pools and spas. No cut-offs or street clothes

will be permitted. No bobby pins, hairpins, etc. are to be worn in the pools or spas. Metal causes great

damage to the filtering systems. Suntan oils and lotions must be removed before entering the pools and

spas. Showers are provided at each pool area. Please be sure to use them as oils damage the filtering

systems.

4. In accordance with the California Building Standards Commission, Persons having currently active

Short Term Rental Policy

VI, that states:

Each Owner shall have the right to lease his or her Unit… provided that such lease is in writing and

provided that the lease states the tenant shall be bound by all provisions of the Association’s governing

documents, and that ANY violation shall constitute a default under such lease. The Owner shall provide

a copy of any lease to the Board within seven (7) days of occupancy of the Unit. No lease shall be for

transient or hotel purposes. Any such lease that is either for a period less than thirty (30) days, or

pursuant to which the Lessor provides any services normally associated with a hotel shall be deemed to

be for transient or hotel purposes

Homeowners that rent/lease their unit for a period of less than thirty (30) days are in violation of the

Cathedral Springs CC&R’s, and The Rules & Regulations.

Cathedral Springs HOA has worked very hard to maintain its FHA (Federal Housing Authority)

certification. The FHA will deny recertification to the condominium association if they allow short-

term or “transient” housing, i.e., rentals for less than thirty (30) days.

The city of Cathedral City requires the following for any rental that is less than (30) days: A copy of the

homeowners association’s CC&R’s to verify if short term rentals are allowed. In accordance with city

ordinance #717: A transient occupancy tax of 12% a night/week, with monthly tax returns filed with

the city. An annual fee for a business license application is $55.00, a vacation rental application is

$60.00, a vacation rental permit is $60.00, and possible income tax audits. Fine for failure to report

any rental less than 30 days to the city of Cathedral City are substantial.

Failure to comply with the CC&R’s and the Rules & Regulations, may result in fines starting at $100.00

to $750.00 and any damages.

The Association has a responsibility to report any rentals less than thirty (30) days to the city of

Cathedral City.

The effective date of this Short Term Rental Policy will be December 1, 2015.

The foregoing policy was duly adopted at the Board of Directors meeting on November 21, 2015.

Service Animal Policy

Adopted March 19, 2016

Both service and companion animals are invaluable to the disabled. Unfortunately, the perfectly fit have

abused disability rights to get around pet restrictions. When someone claims to be disabled and wants

an exception from the association’s pet restrictions, board generally can ask for:

Confirmation that a service animal is needed for that particular handicap,

Evidence that the animal received special training to accommodate the handicap.

If a resident cannot provide sufficient evidence of the above, an association may prohibit a pet or pet(s)

that violates the association’s governing documents. Any resident or homeowner that states that the

animal(s) are necessary service animals must follow all of the Associations Rules & Regulations regarding

pets, and may also be required to ensure that their service animal:

Be trained to perform tasks to mitigate the effects of its owner’s disability,

Animal should be in the presence of the owner in order to service the disability for handicap,

Be clean and free of foul odor whenever in the common areas,

Not urinate or defecate in inappropriate locations,

Carport Light Policy

Adopted May 21, 2016

Cathedral Springs HOA has recently purchased LED lighting to replace the fluorescent lights in the

carports to save money.

Because the Association is having trouble with people stealing our new carport lights, the Board of

Directors is enacting a new policy.

These bulbs are expensive, and the Board of Directors is not going to allow the theft and the spending of

homeowner’s money on thieves.

If anyone is caught taking these bulbs, or if anyone knows who is taking these bulbs please call the office

to report it, we will keep your identity anonymous.

If this does not stop, with a 24-hour notice the Board will order an inspection of all units to see if we can

catch who is doing it. If we could catch the person responsible for stealing the lights, we will have the

thief arrested and will prosecute to the fullest extent of the law.

The effective date of this Carport Light Policy will be May 21, 2016.

The foregoing policy was duly adopted at the Board of Directors meeting on May 21, 2016.

determination of an equitable allocation of the usable solar roof area among all owners

sharing the same roof.

4. The solar panels may not have any designs or patterns and may have a maximum height from

the roof surface of eighteen inches (18”). Only fixed racking systems will be approved. The

drawings will include the elevations of the solar panels. The drawing will include the type of
