Covenants, Conditions and Restrictions for Jester Farms Residents.

Areas of concern regarding property appearance.• A number of homes are missing shingles from the roofs and are

looking very bad and will cause more damage to the interior of the home once the raining season starts. This can be very costly to the home owner if it is not repaired.

Your home has a warranty on it. YOU need to check the warranty to see if your home is covered. Most homes are only 8-9 years old with 10 year warranties.

On the same note, fences are looking just as bad. This cost will be the homeowner’s responsibility. Quite a few fences are leaning over to the point of falling over. It will take a strong wind to accomplish this and down it goes.

These issues are all part of the up keep of owning a home.These are three important items in our CC&R’s1. Single family residences ONLY. Renting out rooms or subletting

to multiple families is strictly prohibited. (Judging by comings and goings and multiple cars at some houses indicates this is being violated.)

2. Overnight parking of COMMERCIAL VEHICLES is prohibited. (Such vehicles are all over our neighborhood.)

3. Yard maintenance is required and failure to do so is finable. (A drive through shows numerous untended yards.) Many owners are selling their properties and not informing the renters about the lawn care requirements. These yards will get violations if the renters are not informed.

These are changes made to the Pool Rules and added equipment to prevent the vandalism from continuing.1. Surveillance cameras are now installed in the pool area because

the vandalism that has happened at the beginning of the summer.2. The Pool Rules have changed. The age limit without adult

supervision has been raised to 18. (Continued on page 4)

STRUCTURAL INSPECTIONS

Serving Central Texas Since 1979

Jeffrey L. Tucker, P.E., a registered professional engineer in Texas, has been involved in structural design, inspection and repair of houses and apart-ments since 1965. He is uniquely qualified to perform structural analyses of wood frame structures and slab foundations; to inspect and offer assurance of structural integrity and/or repair recommendations and details.

• Repair minor damage to the fittings- Tighten any of the fittings that have become loose to ensure that the gutter stays attached to your home.

• Replace fittings- Any fittings, that have become damaged beyond repair, should be replaced with new ones.

• Repair minor damage- Silicone caulk and a small piece of aluminum sheet metal may be used to repair small holes that exist in the gutter. If water leaks through the gutters in places that it isn’t supposed to, seepage into the home may result.

• Flush the roof- Flush everything with water from a hose to make sure that you have gotten every bit of debris.

• Cover- If you cover the gutter with hardware cloth, you can prevent buildup of debris in your gutters in the future.

Windows and Doorways• For windows sills and doorways where the existing caulk has

begun to pull away from the surface, remove the old caulk as completely as possible.

• Be sure to clean the area where the caulking will be applied. • Wait until the area to be re-caulked is completely dry and re-caulk.Outside Faucets• Shut off the inside water valve to each outside faucet to prevent freezing. • Turn the outside faucet handle to release any remaining water

from the pipes once you have turned off the valve.

9. Homes with observable discolorations caused by organic materials such as fungi or mildew can be refreshed with a good power washing.

10. Occasional touch up painting around the trim, doors and garages. This can add value and postpone a full house painting until a future time. Use only approved colors before any paint job.

11. Window treatments such as interior shutters, blinds and shades that can be seen from the curb should be in good repair.

Winter Maintenance TipsOutside Your Home

Using a ladder may be safer, but it also more time consuming, and perhaps even annoying, to get up and down to shift the ladder to a new location. If you do choose to climb onto the roof, do so carefully and be sure to wear footwear with good tread.Roof and Gutters • Remove debris- Use a soft bristled broom to gently sweep all of

the debris into a pile. Bag the debris and dispose of it properly. • Clean out the gutters. Carefully remove any large pieces by hand

and dispose of properly. Use a small tool, such as a spade or trowel, to remove small, gritty pieces.

• Clean out the downspouts where the gutters meet the walls of your home. An old pair of tongs may be helpful with this task. This will help to prevent a backup of water on your roof.

Parking in StreetsIs it allowed?

Our deed restrictions and City of Round Rock ordinances prohibit parking in the street. If you are a street parker, you will be receiving violation notices and may be subject to tickets from the Round Rock Police Department. Many of our streets are narrow and parking in the street could easily cost someone their life when emergency vehicles have to navigate around cars to reach their destination.

Be sure to keep all of your vehicles in your garage or on your driveway, not in the street.

Property InspectionsProperty inspections are done bi-monthly. The inspector is

an employee of Goodwin Management. As a board member I periodically accompany the inspector.

Inspections are required by the HOA and By-Laws, and will contribute to your property value when corrections are made, if you have an infraction.

The responses toward inspection reports have been mixed. Some residents get upset and others are encouraging. No matter what the reply, the end result is added value to our properties.

The inspections are done to ensure all of our neighbors are living in a subdivision that they can be proud of and it’s up to all of us to make it happen.

The inspections are done with both the Inspector and Board member agreeing on the inspection as seen from the streets. The inspection reports are sent to each property owner, renter and a copy is kept on file at Goodwin Management, 11149 Research Blvd., Suite 100, Austin, TX, 78759-5269.

Enforcing the HOA rules are more tedious than difficult, it entails visual observations along with written documentation. It is important we document violations in writing because there are a few homeowners that insist on being non-compliant on a recurring basis and the documentation demonstrates how reasonable the Board has been in correcting the violations. Violations of the rules carries a Warning (Courtesy Letter). Monetary fines, Legal Actions which may include Judicial proceedings, Evictions (If appropriate) and Outsourcing to a collection firm.

The Actual Bi-Weekly Inspection covers all Deed Restrictions which includes but are not limited to , Construction Improvements to the Exterior of individual property, Yard Maintenance, inoperable vehicles, Over-night street parking, Pets, Damage to the common area, Garbage containers, Signs, Noise, Rubbish and The Exterior Appearances.

If any resident has questions about violation notices contact Goodwin management, Inc., at 502-7500 or Fax 512-346-5227

Please follow this link and READ the documents concerning the Restrictions, Articles, and Bylaws.

Safety Concerns in the Neighborhood.

• There has been too much speeding and speed bumps cannot be put on the streets in order for emergency vehicles to get through quicker.

• Also STOP signs are there for a reason. PLEASE STOP when you approach them. And don’t forget we have a lot of little children riding their bikes and running around having fun. Watch for them too.

• Cars parked on the street are also a major concern for the emergency vehicles.

• There have been complaints of excessively loud music played both at the homes and cars driving in the neighborhood. If you cannot get results from discussing it with them, then turn it over to Goodwin Management.

• When you see property destruction going on PLEASE report it to the POLICE.
