Parking
Each unit has a garage. Parking outside of the garages is designated for some units, especially where building proximity makes it impractical for parking a vehicle directly in front of the garage. Additional parking outside of the garages for units 66D, 66E, 66F, 66G, 76E, 76F and 76G consists of marked spaces located on the west end of the 76 building. Guest or visitor or contractor parking is located in the center of the complex next to the mailboxes. A unit owner may park immediately in front of his or her garage, with the exception of the units aforementioned in this paragraph, as long as such parking does not interfere with traffic flow within the project.

No vehicles that are not in good running condition shall be left on the common area at any time.

Satellite Dishes
Satellite TV is increasingly popular, but there is a downside: a
dish must be mounted to the outside of your home. Please remember
that a satellite dish REQUIRES an
North Shore Terrace HOA Board approval IN WRITING before
you install it. Most approvals are granted easily, but for your
protection and that of the Association and your neighbors, the plan
must be reviewed.
Satellite dishes may be mounted on the wood trim of roof
gables or other appropriate areas; caulk should be used to seal the
mounting holes. Dishes must NOT be installed on the roof, through
the siding, or in any other manner that will compromise the
water-tightness of the structure. Improperly installed dishes must
be removed and all damage professionally repaired... at your
expense!
Trash and recycling containers
Trash cans, recycling containers, and yard waste containers must be stored out of public view, except for the night before and day of pickup.
