The following rules and regulations are for the protection and benefit of all who use the pool facility. These rules are broken into four (4) categories and have been established to ensure the safe and sanitary operation of the pool facility. Compliance is mandatory. Thank you for your cooperation.
POOL BADGE AND ADMITTANCE PROCEDURES
- No one will be admitted into the pool area without a properly validated badge. (Children under age 3 do not require a badge). Photo-ID badges will be issued to each full-time, year-round, permanent resident of a household, with an additional badge provided to reach single-occupant household. (The permanent badges will only be issued once). Validation stickers will be provided each year, provided that the unit owner is in good standing. Replacement badges will cost $10.00 each.
- Each household will be provided with a booklet of 10 guest passes for the season. These passes are valid for one (1) day only. Additional passes, if required, may be obtained through the management office of Signature Property Group, located on site at the Clubhouse (adjacent to pool) located at
25 Artillery Park Road at a cost of $20 per guest pass booklet consisting of ten (10) guest passes. All guests must be accompanied by a member with a valid pool badge. There are no refunds for unused guest passes.
Except as otherwise provided for in these rules, the use of the pool and adjoining areas is restricted to unit owner, tenants, members of their immediate families who are legally domiciled with them throughout the year, and authorized guests.
- The pool and its facilities may not be used unless a lifeguard is present.
- Admission to the pool shall be refused to anyone with a cold, inflamed eye, infection, fever, rashes, excessive sunburn, open blisters or general uncleanliness. Anyone under the influence of drugs or alcohol will not be allowed into the facilities.
- Owners will be responsible for any property damage caused by themselves, members of their family, their tenants, or their guests. The cost of such damage will be charged to the responsible owner.
- All maintenance fee accounts must be current in order to receive pool stickers, coupon books and badges. The Delinquent Resident must then pay their maintenance fee to their Neighborhood Management Company by Money Order or Certified Bank Check. The HVNMA Management Company will then confirm their payment with their Neighborhood Management Company, and due to the length of the season, the Resident’s pool privileges will be reinstated immediately.

Additional Information Regarding the Pool Facilities
- CLUBHOUSE: As you may know, Signature Property Group, the managing agent for The Hills Village North Master Association, has an on site office in the Clubhouse. If you need to contact the office, please call: 908-781-2333 or use the main entrance at the front of the Clubhouse. The other rooms in the Clubhouse are for private rental only and are not open for the general use and are kept locked at all times. Please be conscious that other residents may be using these facilities for private parties. Please contact Signature Property Group if you would like information on renting the Clubhouse.
- REST ROOMS: Parents must supervise children when they are using the facilities. We ask everyone to please clean up after themselves to try and keep the rest rooms as clean as possible. Although we understand that it is a pool and people will be wet, we do ask that you dry off as much as possible before entering the Clubhouse or to use the rest rooms. If you notice that the toilet paper or paper towels are out, please notify the gate attendant.
- VENDING MACHINES are available for your convenience in the kitchen area. They are to be used at your own risk. They are not owned or operated by the Association. The pool management personnel or property management cannot make change, nor will any reimbursement be made for money lost in a vending machine. Wet bills will jam the machines. We strongly urge you to use coins.
- BEE SEASON: These pests will seek out sweets of any type and will hover in the pool area around trash cans and sweet snacks or drinks. There is nothing that can be done to prevent these pests. However, we suggest that you sit away from trash cans, do not leave drinks sitting around and wipe up all spills immediately.
- THUNDER: When lifeguards hear thunder, the pools must be closed for no less than 20 minutes following the last clap of thunder heard. When the pool is closed, you must get out of the water promptly.
We hope that everyone takes the time to enjoy the beauty of The Hills, the community pool and the other facilities at the Clubhouse.
We wish everyone a SAFE and HAPPY SUMMER SEASON!
Thank you for your cooperation in the above items. If you have any questions regarding these rules, please contact Signature Property Group at: 908-781-2333
