We continue to receive notifications from homeowners of bear sightings in the neighborhood.
Remember, bears can be attracted to the neighborhood by trash being left out overnight, bird feeders, pet food, barbeque grills, fruit trees and compost.

With election season here, we would like to remind RVR homeowners of our sign and flag policy. RVRMA's policy restricts size, placement and quantity. Similarly, the same restrictions apply to flags. With limited and clearly defined exceptions, each lot is allowed one sign and one flag. For properties that abut the golf course, pedestrian easement or a public park, a second sign is permitted with different size restrictions. Please review the policy for specific guidelines here.

Homeowners may install deer
fencing starting October first.
|
It's that time of year again! Many homeowners will want to begin installing deer fencing to protect valuable landscaping from the local deer population. Homeowners may install deer fencing beginning Tuesday, Oct 1 instead of the typical October 15 date noted in the Fourth Amendment.
|
To read more about deer fencing guidelines, see section 6.58.1 of the Design Guidelines.
|
| |
|
As is typical this time of year, organic fertilizer application will take place on Friday, Oct. 4 in Old Town, Settlement and common areas in the community.
*Homeowners who have opted out will not be included in the work.

Trash Day Do's and Don'ts |
|
|
Please review some friendly tips for an organized trash & recycling collection day.
|
-
The placement of your trash can matters. The correct placement of your can will ensure efficient collection of your trash, recyclables and yard waste. Most collection trucks have an automated electronic arm that grabs and empties the bin. Please make sure you leave space for the automated arm to do it's job!
- Trash cans must remain inside until 6 a.m. on collection day. Cans must be put back by 8 p.m. the same day.
-
Be sure to keep plastic bags, pizza boxes, plastic cutlery and shredded paper (just to name a few items) out of recycling bins. Avoid using plastic bags to consolidate your recyclables. Even if other recyclables are put inside a plastic bag, Mountain Waste still cannot take them. Plastic bags among otherwise recyclable materials can cause the trash company to have to dump the entire batch of recyclables into the landfill instead of taking the load to the processing facility. Click here to learn more about what you should and should not place in your recycling bins.
|
- Avoid fees by preventing overflow in trash and recycling containers. If the lid on either the trash or recycling container is not entirely closed, or if you have material outside the container, a minimum $25 fee will be assessed to your monthly billing. Additionally, overflowing trash can cause a messy situation in the community if winds pick up.
