COMMUNITY EVENTS<br />
The HOA is hosting several community events<br />
during <strong>2017</strong>, which are listed below. Neighbors<br />
can come out get to know each other<br />

VOLUNTEERS NEEDED<br />
You are reminded of our standing committees,<br />
which need ongoing volunteers. The<br />
committees are as follows:<br />
• Pool Committee (organizes Official<br />
Pool Opening Party<br />
& monitors activities during pool season)<br />
• Crime Watch Committee<br />
(organizes National Night Out)<br />
• Newsletter - submit articles<br />
• Yard of the Month - select section winners<br />
We also need volunteers for the listed community<br />
activities. Volunteering is an opportunity<br />
to make <strong>Raintree</strong> <strong>Village</strong> a better community<br />
for all the residents. If you’re interested in volunteering<br />
for any of the noted events or committees,<br />
contact Walonda Hollins at hollinsw@<br />
sbcglobal.net.<br />
BE SURE ADDRESS IS CLEAR<br />
FROM THE STREET<br />
County officials want to remind residents of<br />
the Ordinance 5.3 requiring that addresses or<br />
building numbers be legible and visible from<br />
the street. The section states the numbers<br />
must be in Arabic numerals at least four inches<br />
in height and clearly visible. The number<br />
should be placed on, above or at the side of<br />
the main entrance so the number is clearly<br />
visible from the public right away. Whenever<br />
a home entrance is more than 50 feet from a<br />
public right away, a number should also be<br />
placed at the end of a driveway or property<br />
entrance.<br />
SATELLITE DISHES<br />
It’s come to HOA’s attention that the installation<br />
of satellite dishes on some homes<br />
violates the deed restrictions. Satellites are<br />
expected to be installed out of sight of public<br />
view. The Association appreciates residents<br />
taking the time to ensure compliance.<br />
