All residents are encouraged to review the restrictive covenants for the River Bend Bluffs Association. Among other things, the covenants prohibit any type of yard sign except one advertising the property for sale. Parking boats, campers, trailers, etc. on lots is also prohibited.
Trash and/or recycling bins are to be stored in your garage or placed out of view when driving by your home. Bins may be kept outside the home if fully kept our of sight by an approved fence, screen or landscaping.
The River Bend Bluffs Board reminds all residents to be aware of utility easements when planning improvements to their property. Please call 811 before digging.
When snow is forecasted, please move your vehicles off the street to allow the snowplows to clear the streets. You may want to place markers to indicate your drive and lot corners to help prevent snowplow damage to your property.
The Board of Directors has discussed the following issues and has established these guidelines. For the protection of the entire association and to maintain an aesthetic community and enhance property values, we request that property owners adhere to these rules.
