Be A Good Neighbor & Be Pet Sensitive
 The Serrano Woods rules and regulations provide in part the following regarding pets residing in the community. While in the common area, pets are to be kept on a leash held by a person capable of controlling the animal. Pet droppings in the common area are to be picked up by the owner immediately and disposed of properly. Additionally, owners must prohibit their pets from creating a disturbance or nuisance for your neighbors. Unfortunately, some owners are allowing dogs to run off leash and not picking up after them. If you are aware of this please report it via the violation form on the community website or by email or phone message to the management office. Additionally, you need to be sensitive to your dog barking and being a noise nuisance. If this is a problem homeowners again report it to the management company via the website and contact the City Animal Control Department to register a complaint. Enjoy & love your pets, but please be responsible and don't allow your pets to become a neighborhood problem. |
