Richview Park Homeowner facing $8000 City Fine
One neighbor has been cited by City Code Enforcement for not maintaining the premises. The City has placed a Lien on that house; it currently stands at $8000, and is increasing by $25 per day.
If you are cited by City of Tallahassee Code Enforcement, it is imperative that you contact them immediately. The City will tell you what you need to do in order to avoid facing a Code Hearing, or being hit with the type of Lien described above.
Your Homeowners' Association has no say in these matters. Please contact an Attorney for Legal Advice.

Richview Park is a Great Neighborhood
Please remember, these homes are Private Property. Richview Park is not an Apartment Complex.
Below are some rules from the Deed Restrictions, which apply to all owners, tenants, and guests in Richview Park.
1. Garbage Collection is on MONDAY. Trash Containers and Recycling Bins must be retrieved after collection, and placed out of sight.
2. Parking is very limited in Richview Park. Most homes have only TWO parking spaces.
You can legally park on the street, as long as you do not park in intersections, on sidewalks, block mailboxes, or park in front of fire hydrants. These actions can result in Fines and/or Towing. If you block driveways, or clog streets, you also face towing.
Advise your guests that they cannot park in "any available space". Parking in a neighbor's driveway may result in towing; and under some circumstances, it may constitute criminal trespass.
3. Parties, Noise, and Disturbing the Peace. The majority of residents in Richview Park are State workers, professionals, and serious college students. This is NOT the place for loud partying or other disruptive behavior. TPD has a Zero Tolerance Policy for Parties and Disturbances - they will cite or arrest someone.
4. Clutter, Debris, Un-Mowed Yards, and other Nuisances.
Richview Park is a well-kept neighborhood. Please join your neighbors in keeping yards mowed, keeping yards and porches free of clutter, and not throwing junk or yard waste on the curb except on Collection Days (see the City Website for pick-up days).
5. Trailers, Boats, RV's, Campers, etc. are NOT allowed to be parked or stored in Richview Park.
6. Exterior Appearance of your Home may not be changed in any way, without Written Consent of the Richview Park Homeowners' Association Board of Directors. This includes painting, porch columns, shutters, roof styles, banners, fences, or any other physical change to the appearance of your property.
7. Speeding, Careless Driving, and Loud Music in Cars. These are all violations of the Law. There are many pedestrians, dog-walkers, and others in Richview Park. Drive Carefully, please.
8. Dog-Walkers must carry a pooper scooper. The Holding Pond area on the northeast corner of the neighborhood (City Property) is a great place to let your dogs exercise.
