EVICTION FOR LATE PAYMENT ON RENT

The MRL (Civil Code 798.56 €) gives homeowners five days after the due date to pay the monthly rent and a 3-day notice thereafter to pay the rent (in 3-days) or be subject to termination of tenancy in 60 days. If a homeowner pays rent within the 3-day grace period, the 60-day termination of tenancy is voided. However, the homeowner can only pay the rent late three times in a 12-month period. If a homeowner is late a fourth time within a 12-month timeframe, the park can refuse to accept the late rent and proceed with eviction after 60 days. So, to Recap:

• The resident has five days from the due date to pay rent.

• If the rent is late, the park can give the residents a 3-day notice to pay or risk eviction in 60 days.

• The resident can be late only three times in a 12-month period.

Clubhouse

The Clubhouse is open every day 7am to 8pm. The managers make coffee every day so come on down and enjoy a cup of coffee, maybe read a book, do a puzzle or you can even watch TV. So, you can come and enjoy a cup of coffee and get out of the house for a little while. Enjoy the free wi-fi the password is on the bulletin board. There is no eating up where the TV is.

If you would like to reserve the clubhouse for parties, family reunions etc. It has a kitchen that you can use. You can go to the office and let them know what day you would like to reserve. All you will have to do is set up the tables and chairs and put them away when you are done and clean up and mop. You do need to bring your own cleaning supplies and trash bags.

When the Clubhouse is reserved for a private party, there will be a sign posted on the doors telling what day and the time. Let’s be respectful and not go into the clubhouse during the time of the party. If you want to play pool or watch TV, you can do it before the reserved time and leave before the party starts or you can go in after the party ends.

Pets

Please remember that it is still really hot and the humidity can be brutal. Animals can get dehydrated so please make sure they have plenty of water. If you take your dog out to the park or just for a drive, make sure to take water for them to drink. They do get dehydrated like we do but probably faster because of all the fur. Animals can have heat strokes too.

DO NOT LEAVE your dogs in the car even with the window cracked during the hot days. It gets hotter in the car than outside.

FEATURED PET OF THE MONTH

We would like to give our condolences to Julie and her family they lost Lady on July 11, 2025. She was a wonderful dog she was 13 years old and a long-time resident. She loved going for walks and hanging out with all of her four-legged friends. She enjoyed car rides and going to the park. She liked going for walks around the neighborhood because her human friends would pet her and give

her treats. She brought a lot of joy to Julie’s life, and she will truly be missed. Not only with her mom but all her human and four-legged friends.

Hot Weather Safety for Older Adults

Too much heat is not safe for anyone. It is even riskier if you are older or have health problems. It is important to be cautious and get relief quickly when you are overheated. Otherwise, you might start to feel sick or risk a heat-related illness that could cause serious health issues.

Why can extreme weather be even more dangerous for older adults than for younger people? Hotter days can cause difficulty in the body’s ability to regulate its temperature. This can be challenging for older adults who typically do not adjust as well as others to sudden temperature changes. Additionally, older adults are more likely to have chronic medical conditions that affect the body’s response to temperature, and to take prescription medicines that alter the body’s ability to control temperature or sweat.

Heat-related illnesses

Being overheated for too long or being exposed without protection to the sun can cause many health problems. Heat-related illnesses include the following:

• Heat syncope is a sudden dizziness that can happen when you are active in hot weather. If you take a heart medication called a beta blocker or are not acclimated to hot weather, you are even more likely to feel faint. Rest in a cool place, put your legs up, and drink water to make the dizzy feeling go away.

• Heat cramps are the painful tightening or spasms of muscles in your stomach, arms, or legs. Cramps can result from hard work or intense exercise. Though your body temperature and pulse usually stay normal during heat cramps, your skin may feel moist and cool. Stop the physical activity you’re doing and rest in the shade or in a cool building. Drink plenty of fluids, such as water and sports drinks containing electrolytes. Do not consume alcohol or caffeinated beverages.

• Heat edema is a swelling in your ankles and feet when you get hot. Put your legs up to help reduce swelling. If that doesn’t work fairly quickly, check with your doctor.

• Heat rash is a skin irritation from heavy sweating. It causes red clusters of small blisters that look similar to pimples on the skin. Your skin may

feel itchy or you may feel “prickly” tingling pain. Keep the infected area dry, use powder to soothe the rash, and stay in cool areas.

• Heat exhaustion is a warning that your body can no longer keep itself cool. You might feel thirsty, dizzy, weak, uncoordinated, and nauseated. You may sweat a lot. Your body temperature may stay normal, but your skin may feel cold and clammy. Some people with heat exhaustion have a rapid pulse. Rest in a cool place and get plenty of fluids. If you don’t feel better soon, get medical care. Be cautious because heat exhaustion can progress to heat stroke.

• Heat stroke is a medical emergency in which the body’s temperature rises above 104°F. Signs of heat stroke are fainting; confusion or acting strangely; not sweating even when it’s hot; dry, flushed skin; strong, rapid pulse; or a slow, weak pulse. When a person has any of these symptoms, they should seek medical help right away and immediately move to a cooler place, such as under shade or indoors. They should also take action to lower their body temperature with cool clothes, a cool bath or shower, and fans.

• Sun exposure, also known as sunburn, is a sign of skin damage due to extreme or long exposure. Your skin may appear red and tender, develop blisters, start to peel, and be warm to the touch. Severe reactions may cause fever, chills, nausea, or rash. Prevent sunburn by wearing protective clothing that covers your skin and staying out of direct sunlight. Using a broad spectrum sunscreen with an SPF of 15 or higher can also help prevent sunburns, but be sure to reapply often. If you are sunburned, wear lightweight clothing, take cool showers, moisturize affected areas, and stay out of the sun so your skin can heal.

If you are concerned about any of these heat-related illnesses, talk with your doctor. (From the National Institute of Aging)

Please remember to drink plenty of water. If you get too hot and don’t have air conditioning go down to the Clubhouse. It is air conditioned and has water. Also, do your yard work in the early morning before the heat or in the evening time.

FIRE SEASON IS HERE

With all the hot and humid weather, we have been having everything is very dry and that poses a risk of brush fires that can spread quickly. We have all seen what the Cedar Fire and Witch Fire can do. It is important to make sure that you keep your insurance current on your home. I know that a lot of insurance companies are raising their rates or cancelling people. If your insurance has gotten to be over 5 percent higher or you have been cancelled, please go to the office or call them. They have insurance agent’s numbers that can help you with that.

Here is some information from Cal-Fire you what you need in case of wildfire.

Prepare for a Wildfire evacuation

CalFire has built a list of things to have ready in case you and your family are evacuated during any wildfire or disaster. Ensure your wildfire ‘Go Bag’ includes:

• A 3-day supply of non-perishable food & 3 gallons of water per person

• A map with at least 2 evacuation routes

• Necessary prescriptions or medications

• A change of clothes & extra eyeglasses/contact lenses

• Extra car keys, credit cards, cash, or traveler’s checks

• A first aid kit & sanitation supplies

• A flashlight & battery-powered radio with extra batteries

• Copies of important documents (birth certificates, passports, etc.)

• Pet food & water

Always have sturdy shoes and a flashlight near your bed, ready for sudden night evacuations. If time allows, consider adding:

• Valuables that are easy to carry

• Family photos and irreplaceable items

• Personal computer data on hard drives and disks

• Chargers for cell phones and laptops

This is a checklist that they broke down so that whether you live in a canyon, in the city or in rural parts of the county, you, your family and pets can survive a wildfire.

Be ready by clearing dry vegetation within 100 feet of your home.

“Clear rain gutters from any leaves or combustibles that may be in there,” “Low level branches, you want to trim those ten feet from the ground.”

Be prepared with a go kit that includes water, clothes, a flashlight, first aid kit among other items.

“Whether that be valuables, pictures, medications and electronics with chargers,”

• Don’t forget about pet food, their harness and current pictures in case they get lost.

• Talk with your family about a plan that includes an evacuation route.

• Writing down and following a wildfire action plan can make it easier when there's no time to spare in an emergency. You can also sign up for the Alert San Diego and receive notifications about an emergency disaster and download the Ready San Diego App

“Leave before firefighters are coming and extinguishing the fire and protect those homes”

By acting early, you can give yourself time to get out safely and allow emergency crews to respond quicker to the disaster.

“If you wait until the end to leave it makes it very difficult for crews to get in there and extinguish those fires, the roads get really congested”.
