• Shearwater gate stays open from 6am – 930 am and from 3pm – 6pm
• S. Patrick gate stays open from 6am – 9am and from 3pm to 6pm

To open the Shearwater gate, you must pull up to the white, painted line before pressing the FOB button. Because the Shearwater entrance has the most traffic, the sensitivity is set to ensure the safety of all residents.

The master irrigation system
The system is comprised of three (3) pump stations and is separated into five (5) irrigation controllers. The irrigation system is supplied water from the onsite lakes.

Montecito uses an industry standard two-wire decoder system.

Communities that enforce rules are more likely to maintain their value and are more desirable to potential buyers. Violation letters are written based on the Declarations of Covenants, Conditions and Restrictions that govern each of the HOAs. Only the Townhome HOA and the Single-Family HOA have violation policies.

A representative from Leland Management performs two site visits per month to perform inspections of the physical appearance and condition of the homeowner’s property.

Leland Management also follows-up on complaints of violations and maintenance issues received from residents, association members or the CDD Board.

Both Associations send three letters to the homeowner; the first is a reminder. Please contact Leland Management with any questions regarding a violation letter received or to report an HOA violation.

Please review the complete parking and towing rules.

There are six named lakes within the District. No swimming, wading or boating is allowed in the lakes at any time.
