Did you know that security cameras, such as the Ring Doorbell, are allowed and must be installed in compliance with privacy laws governing the collection of personal information. Cameras and/or recording equipment may not impede upon the privacy of neighbors by having camera angles of shared driveway areas and/or an adjacent structure's windows, back or side yards. Cameras may not be directed on community common areas including but not limited to sidewalks, streets, pools, clubhouses, golf courses, etc. Cameras must be mounted to be stationary and the areas each camera will monitor, including the range of scope, is required. Pictures are extremely helpful here, too, showing the view that the camera covers. The installation of any camera must be approved by MAC. Edgar Lagunas with Planning & Compliance in the Administration office is happy to help you with any questions regarding this or other home improvement inquiries. | SUN LAKES LIFESTYLES | JANUARY 2025 | 11 security cameras, such as the Ring Doorbell, are allowed and must be By Beverly Simmons, Master Board 2nd Vice-President DID YOU KNOW??? Did you know when submitting a Home Improvement Application to the Master Architectural Committee (MAC), it could be rejected simply because it's incomplete? To avoid this, it is advised that you submit the following information along with your application: complete plans, scale drawings, engineering reports, architect's renderings, plot plans or anything like this that you have. Include the kind of plants you want, their shape, height, width, color, and location, and the relation of the proposed Improvement to the surrounding area. Also, pictures are extremely helpful in allowing the MAC to approve your request. The completed Home Improvement Application must have signatures from neighbors within three houses of you. This is NOT their approval, merely an indication that they are aware of this potential change. Did you know that during the Roman era, January was seen as a bridge between what happened in the past and what the future will bring? January is named after the Roman god, Janus, the guardian of gates and doorways. He has two faces, each looking in the opposite direction, which gives him insight into the past as well as the future. Finally, with January typically being the coldest month of the year, it is also National Hot Tea month and National Soup month. Stay warm!
