***Rules Relating to Parking and New Tow Away Zones***

Dear Reunion Owners & Tenants,

On August 13, 2020, following a public hearing and deliberation by the Reunion East and Reunion West Community Development Districts (the “Districts”) Board of Supervisors, the Districts adopted Rules Relating to Parking and Parking Enforcement.
Residents will soon see No Parking signs installed where parking has been prohibited. No Parking signs correspond with the Districts Parking and Towing Maps and indicate locations where parking will be restricted or prohibited. Once signage is installed the Districts will begin enforcing the provisions of the Rule. For a time, the District will be implementing parking enforcement with a warning period. Vehicles found improperly parked may be issued warnings. The District has the ability to tow improperly parked vehicles, so all property owners, residents and other stakeholders are strongly urged to obey no parking zones.
Background:
Reunion was built as a residential community with compact roads that provide a neighborly feel. Because of the narrow design and construction of the roads, not all streets are suitable for on-street parking. There have been numerous concerns brought to the Districts regarding the effective operation of the roads – specifically on-street parking. In addition to public safety concerns, discourteous parking has negatively impacted other drivers and pedestrians in the community. One frequently cited concern is that vehicles parked on the roads are potentially blocking public safety vehicles -- such as fire trucks -- when they are responding to an emergency. Other concerns brought to the Board include residents being prevented from driving on certain roads (due to large vehicles being parked on both sides of the roads) and discourteous drivers not realizing their parking behaviors are adversely impacting other drivers and even pedestrians. The Boards of Supervisors are balancing the critical need for safe and effective roads with the understanding that residents have guests from time to time. Although on-street parking can be a convenience for guests, not every Reunion road is suitable for on-street parking.
Summary of the Key Parking Guidelines:

For most residential roadways, parking will be permitted on one side of the street only. Furthermore, there is no on street parking in the cul-de-sacs on any residential road.
For all District roadways, courtesy guidelines such as not parking near mailbox kiosks, not blocking driveways, not blocking sidewalks and other situations are fully addressed in the adopted Rules. The Rules also allow for towing of disabled vehicles, illegal vehicles, or those that are unsafely parked on the street.

Please note that certain No Parking and Tow Away Zones for Corolla Court, Euston Drive, Excitement Drive, Gathering Drive, Gathering Court, Oconee Street, and Titian Court were adopted in December 2019 and have been in effect since February.

Should you have any questions regarding this matter or any of the provisions of the Rule, please feel free to contact me. Thank you in advance for your cooperation.
Sincerely, Tricia L. Adams
