Rules & Regulations

This page is under construction.

The revision of the Rules and Regulations for our Park is only at the beginning stage. Because of the many comments and ideas residents have expressed about our R&R’s, this is a brief overview of what is important to most of us. This includes a Mission Statement along with a general philosophy of what is important to our community, our residents.

Mission Statement

Marin Valley, a 55-plus senior community, affords the residents a beautiful and peaceful place to live along with friendly neighbors and the enjoyment of the beauty and serenity of nature in a quiet setting.

Our philosophy for Marin Valley:  Provide a harmonious and environmentally friendly senior community

Quiet Living

  Marin Valley residents appreciate a quiet neighborhood throughout the day and especially between the hours of 10 PM and 8 AM.

  Because our homes are in close proximity to each other, Marin Valley residents and guests need to be aware that some noises (loud amplified music, televisions, radios, excessive wind chimes, loud motorcycles, cars and trucks, air conditioners and washing machines, etc.) can be upsetting to neighbors. When in doubt, ask your neighbor if a particular noise is a problem—be a good neighbor.

Night Sky Enjoyment

  Marin Valley residents are conscious of light pollution and strive to reduce the use of artificial lights to allow residents and guests to enjoy the wondrous night sky.

  Neighbors appreciate porch lights turned off after10 pm; motion detector lights are fine as long as they don’t shine into your neighbor’s bedroom windows.

  Residents appreciate low-wattage, shielded light fixtures with light directed to the ground, rather than upward into the night sky or into neighbors’ windows.

Clean Air

  Marin Valley is gradually becoming a tobacco smoke-free community, and residents appreciate not smelling neighbors’ smoke.

  Wood-burning fireplaces, high-emission vehicles, fragrant laundry products, etc. pose a health issue for many residents; they are also polluting and thus strongly discouraged.

  Spare-the-air day ordinance restrictions are observed.

Beautiful Surroundings/Visual Enhancement

  Marin Valley residents appreciate mobile home lots and homes that are clean, attractive, and fire safe; weeds, garbage bags, boxes, etc. should not accumulate on mobile home spaces, carports, or decks/porches.

Safe Environment

  Marin Valley residents appreciate residents and guests who drive safely, follow the speed limit, watch out for pedestrians, and stop at all stop signs.

Because Marin Valley is subject to earthquakes, fires, etc., vehicles parked on streets and cul-de-sacs need to be able to be moved within a moment’s notice to allow emergency vehicle access.

Rules and Regulations

  Marin Valley residents appreciate it when the Rules and Regulations are followed. The most frequent complaint from residents is that too many residents and their guests ignore the R&R’s
