For those units with tandem parking, if an oversized vehicle prevents the placement of a second vehicle safely in the space, the site manager reserves the right to disallow the additional parking space.

RESERVED PARKING  

In addition to the assigned owner parking spots, there are ten reserved parking spaces to be used for overflow parking for owners and their guest. The site manager assigns these parking spaces. Unauthorized cars will be towed at owner's expense.
Owners and their guests are allowed the use of motorcycles when operated in a safe and quiet manner and the owner is on the premises.

The speed limit is 5 mph for the safety of our community.  One-way traffic is strictly enforced.  

GUESTS  

Unit owners should notify the site manager when expecting guests and of their guests' arrivals.   

INSURANCE  

Owners are responsible for carrying the minimum amount of Property and Liability Insurance as outlined in the By Laws. 

The Gray Gull Cottage Condominium Association is responsible for fixed items only. The insured amount is determined based on the condition of the property at the time it was purchased. Owners are responsible for increasing their individual insurance as appropriate to cover any improvements they have made since the purchase date.  

PETS
Only unit owners are allowed pets that must be leashed at all times. Dog owners are to abide by the York Leash Law including picking up after their dog.

If the problem persists, the site manager will contact the unit owner for mediation. If the problem still persists the Executive Board will be notified and will solicit input from all parties involved and seek mediation. The Executive Board reserves the right to eject any individual(s) for cause from the site.

DISCLOSURE

Failure of unit owners to properly disclose the Rules & Regulations to their family and guest and/or renters and their guest prior to them arriving on site, and/or to outside agencies used to secure tenants, does not waive any provisions of said Rules & Regulations.

When a conflict of interest exists, the Rules & Regulations supersedes any understandings and/or contractual agreements unit owners have with outside agencies used to secure tenants. It is the responsibility of the unit owner to provide the outside agency and their clients with a copy of the Rules & Regulations.

In an effort to protect the assets of the Association and its owners and to respect the right of people to peaceful enjoyment of the property, the Gray Gull Executive Board reserves the right to inform the Gray Gull owners of any individual(s) who willfully destroys private property, and/or violates the terms of the Rules & Regulations, and/or is disruptive to the detriment of those who occupy the premises.

Illegal activity such as underage drinking and drug use will not be tolerated under any circumstances and will be reported to the proper authorities.

All renters will sign a disclosure that they understand the rules of the Gray Gull and the possible ramifications for failure to abide by them, including termination of their stay on the premises.
