SECURITY CAMERAS
Several homeowners have inquired about the
regulations regarding security cameras as outlined
in the DRC Guidelines. According to Section 5.2,
"Security/Surveillance Cameras (HIA Permit
Required), cameras must be "fixed view" without
panning capabilities and should be positioned
to only observe and record the area immediately
surrounding the homeowner's residence and
lot. Cameras are not permitted to point toward
or capture footage of neighboring properties or
Association property. Homeowners are allowed a
maximum of six cameras: one at each front and rear
door entry, and one on each side of the residence.
If cameras are equipped with motion detector
lighting, homeowners must ensure that the lights do
not illuminate neighboring properties and comply
with the Exterior Lighting requirements outlined
in Section 5.10. Detailed specifications for security
cameras can be found on pages 9 and 10 of the DRC
Guidelines available on the Solera Oak Valley Greens
website.
Many homeowners have expressed a desire to
monitor deliveries that often occur at their front
door, especially since delivery personnel may not
always ring the doorbell. Entry doorbell-type
security cameras, such as Ring, Nest, Vivint, and
similar devices, offer the capability to record activity
in the entryway and notify homeowners when
deliveries are made. These devices do not require
Design Review Committee approval. They can be
purchased online or at local stores for prices ranging
from $50 to over $100+, depending on their features,
with installation costs being additional.
