Frequently Asked Questions Send an email to the Seven Bridges
Courts Association Our general email address is sbcaowners@comcast.net.
What are the overnight parking
priorities for residents and their guests? Residents and
their guests that will be parking overnight in the guest parking area must
display the green placard furnished to each resident or their vehicle will be
towed away. The parking protocol is as follows: 1.
Park in
resident's garage; 2.
Park in
resident's driveway; and finally, if neither 1. or 2. is available 3.
Park in the
guest parking area. If a resident or
guest requires overnight parking for an extended period (over one week) the
resident should submit a parking variance request. Not following these
guidelines may result in the resident's or guest's vehicle being ticketed
and/or towed. See the Parking Section of
the Rules & Regulations for additional information regarding parking
rules and regulations. I am thinking
about selling my home. What do I need to provide the Association? In the event
that you place your unit up for sale, you must notify the Board of
Directors in writing of the impending sale. Real estate signs and any
other commercial signs cannot be posted in the common area or on any exterior
portion of any building or structure in the complex. If any type of sign must
be displayed, it must be placed within the unit visible through a window of
the unit. A "For Sale" form will be furnished and MUST be
completed and returned to the Association to allow the Board to furnish
required documentation for closing and/or refinancing. Additional
information about the "Sale of a Unit" can be found on the SBCA
website by clicking
here. During the
winter, can I use salt on the pavers at my home? The Association
does not "salt" the driveways and walkways during the winter. It is
the homeowner's responsibility. If you are going to "salt" your
walk/driveways, please purchase calcium chloride only. Other
types of salt treatments may have a negative effect on the pavers. What should I
do if I want to relocate my dryer vent or install a deck awning, etc.? If you are
considering installing a deck awning, relocating a dryer vent, or installing
a gas backup generator, etc., please remember that you must submit a variance
request for the approval to the SBCA Board before beginning the work. Additional
information about variances and a variance request form can be found on the
SBCA website by clicking
here. What is the
speed limit on our Courts streets? The speed limit
on our courts is 10 MPH. It has been reported that some residents and
guests have been exceeding the speed limit. We have several young children
residing in our community. Observing the required speed limit will ensure
their safety. Please slow down and drive safely! What should I
do if one of my exterior light bulbs burns out? Please call the
SBCA voicemail to report any burned out light bulbs. Your message will be
forwarded to one of our resident volunteers who will replace your bulb(s) as
soon as possible. We are using LED bulbs that are under warranty. Please do
not change the light bulbs yourself. To take advantage of the bulb warranty
we must return the bulbs. How can I
find out what is going on in the Village of Woodridge? The Village of
Woodridge has a weekly email newsletter that it sends out to keep resident
informed about what is going on in the Village. If you want to automatically
receive this email, go to the Village website at www.vil.woodridge.il.us and click
on the "subscribe to electronic newsletter" on the left-hand side
of the Village's homepage. Can I plant
flowers by my home? It is
permissible for residents to add plants (no bushes or trees) along their
sidewalks in front of their homes and three feet or less from the back of
their units. The Association takes no responsibility for owner's plantings
and/or decorations. Although the landscape service tries to be mindful and
careful of residents’ decorations and plantings, accidents do happen. Please
review the Rules & Regulations of the Association for additional details

here. My SBCA
mailbox is rusting and in bad shape. Can I get a new one? Several
residents have used cleaners such as "409" to remove the rust and
others have cleaned them then repainted them. It is the Board's
position that it is the resident’s responsibility to maintain or replace the
SBCA mailbox. If you believe it necessary to replace the mailbox you
may purchase a new one. See section "Inter-Court
Mailboxes" in the Rules and Regulations Manual for more information
on replacement mailboxes. Problem
opening your USPS mailbox? If a resident is
unable to unlock their USPS mailbox, try squirting some WD 40 into the
keyhole, waiting about 10 minutes then trying to open it again. If that does
not work, contact the post office to request a repair at (630) 515-9070. |
