Compliance

Exact language can be found in the "CC&R's". The following are answers to the four compliance issues the Board normally checks for:

Mailboxes
Property owners are required to maintain their mailbox.

Q: Why did you receive a compliant notification?

A: All Providence Highlands property owners are required to maintain a mailbox a shared mailbox that has been installed. If you feel differently you can appeal to the board, and it will be reviewed at the next board meeting.

Q: Where are the Providence Highlands guidelines found?

A: The guidelines are found in the approved Amendment to Declaration of Protective Easements, Covenant, Condition, and Restriction of the Providence Highlands dated April 18, 2012, states as follows:

Paragraph 12.15 Once a single-family residence is constructed on a Lot, the owner of the Lot must install and Maintain a mailbox that has been approved by the Architectural Review Committee... Intent of each Lot will have a mailbox that is similar in design thus providing a unified theme.

Q: What should my mailbox look like?

A: The attached picture shows a mailbox that is maintained and in compliance.

The stone is Harris Stone brand and is Spanish olive color. Also, some have a concrete base which should be acceptable instead of the rock going to the bottom which means there is already multiple different versions of the rock mailboxes.

The address on the glass block and the square is to say Providence Highlands. It should all be part of the mailbox as well as the two newspaper slots and two mailboxes.

The square part referred to above, should say Providence Highlands. See included template copy. This template is designed for vinyl lettering to be made for your mailboxes or instead, a paint template will work. Please try to match the color with the color of other mailboxes.
