CYV Parking

[clod]

Deed restrictions in CYV's only allow parking in garages, driveways or visitor parking areas. However, there are lots of cars parked in the dead-end streets, blocking delivery vehicles & the emergency access gates. Also, residents park in the visitor parking areas. Any thoughts on how to get TV to enforce the restrictions?

I just do not understand why they didn't build them that way. There are a few around but not many. JJ

I think the parking in the driveway issue for CYVs is because the fast majority of CYVs are built with small 1.5 car garages. There are a very few with two car garages. It seems to me retired people may have some things to store and toys to buy.. bikes, motorcycles, kayaks and canoes, maybe two ladders, tool box, bench, lawn mower even for small yards, and with small garages, it forces people to park their cars and sometimes their golf carts in the driveway. The villages are beautiful but cars left outside in driveways detracts from the beauty in my opinion.

Are you talking about the beauty of a row of closely spaced homes all the same color? In MY opinion the occasional car in the driveway breaks up the monotony of the view. I guess that is why they say that beauty is in the eye of the beholder. :smiley: It is a good thing us residents do not decide what looks good or not because no one would like my idea of it.

Glad my car detracts from your vision of beauty.

The only thing wrong with your car Mel is that it's yours and not mine. What a beauty!

Boy this place is tough.
I was not just referring to the CYVs but I do have a problem. I would prefer a CYV but I want a big garage. What's a boy with toys to do. JJ

Rules are rules, I agree people shouldn't park wherever they damn well please.

Contact the Deed Compliance Office with VCCD. They'll come out, issue a *ticket* and if you see repeat violations, call 'em again and they'll talk to the people.
There's a hard copy form, or an email one.

There is another link/discussion on this somewhere in TOTV.
I'm sorry I don't have it right at hand.

How would Deed Compliance know who to ticket? Run the plate number? How about out of state registrations? The vehicles may not even belong to a TV resident. Even if they are residents I don't know how the vehicle owner can be identified.
It's a good idea but I don't think it's workable.

Village Watch told me they check license plates in CYV guest parking lots. If a vehicle parks there for more than a few days, they investigate! So that residents don't use the guest parking for their own second vehicle.

Perhaps they rely on disgruntled neighbors for their info. :police:

According to the Deed Compliance Office, no one is allowed to park on the street or at the "dead End" areas at the end of the street where the Court Yard Villages are. This is because the streets are more narrow than other streets in TV. The Deed Compliance Office will investigate and ticket cars not complying with existing covenant.

JimJoe,

The CYV known as Tierra Grande all have 2-car garages. Some of those villas are even 2-stories. There always seems to be one for sale, too! Keep your eye on them -- they go quickly. They are located on Palo Alto Drive.

DeLaguna and DeLaguna west in rio grande also have 2 car garages

We live in a CYV on a dead end, and IT USE to be a problem for us. As most know CYVs have curved driveways, so even to back my OWN car, much less deliveries, was almost impossible unless I actually backed straight out into the actual street intersection and then turned to leave.
As some will recall, I asked what to do and you all steered me right! Call Deed Compliance. I then was refered to an actual Council Meeting. There I stated my case for NO Parking signs, they would not do that yet, but told Community Watch who has a Rep there to make a priority.
I called CW several times after when vehicles where there and within 15 min they were there looking for the owner and left a ticket. Yes, I will admit, I did tick off some of my neighbors, but if the shoe was on the other foot.....
AND I no longer have anyone park in my dead end!!!

Seems there is very limitted parking for guests as I remember. What do you do if it is a popular type holiday where you may get several villas with more than 1 guest for several days? Seems there is not enough parking say for Mother's Day or Christmas. Or perhaps this just doesn't occur. Just wondering.

This has happened to us, our guests just park in the street or we park partially on the gravel in our yard.

The problem seems to be that the Deed Compliance office talks the talk but doesn't walk the walk. They meay say something to violators, but the parking reverts to the street anyway. The same cars remain in visitor parking for months. Will keep trying.

My experience with deed compliance regarding overnight parking...they do walk the walk. You need to call them with the address of the offenders location. At times it is not the owner, but a renter or guests and when this happens I give them two days of overnight parking on the street, then call Deed Compliance and they take care of it that evening.

Just called Community Standards again a few minutes ago (called 3 weeks ago and got no results or feedback) about a vehicle parked in our courtyard villa's Visitor Parking. It's been there with a dead battery for almost 3 months now.

This time the woman there did call back and said that they sent a driver around but since the vehicle is tagged there is nothing they can do and that I should call the sheriff. I pointed out to her that it is a violation of our deed restrictions (Article IX. Parking Restrictions - "No owner of a homesite shall park, store or keep any vehicle except wholly within his driveway, garage or other non-visitor parking spaces.")

She just reiterated that the driver said it was tagged and that I had to call the sheriff because it was a public street.

The times they-are-a-changing....sure wish Nick was still there in the VCDD.
