Around the Neighbourhood Nestled in Dubailand at the intersection of Al Qudra and Emirates Roads, Al Ranim is a peaceful gated community created by Dubai Properties with families in mind.

Mudon Centre At the heart of Mudon is the Mudon Centre, a lively gathering place where neighbours meet and families come together.

Home Maintenance and Improvement Guidelines Home Maintenance Tips

Your home needs constant upkeep and maintenance to keep it in its prime and pristine condition. Add these items to your home maintenance checklist for a stress-free living experience. ▶ Air Conditioning All units are fitted with individual air-conditioning systems with dedicated outdoor units and separate thermostats. The maid’s room is equipped with a split AC unit operated via a remote control. Regular cleaning and maintenance of AC filters is the resident’s responsibility. It is advisable to have a qualified HVAC professional carry out routine maintenance on a biannual basis to ensure optimal system performance. Your home is also equipped with energy recovery ventilators that help balance humidity levels and improve indoor air quality. ▶ Refrigerators Refrigerator coils positioned either underneath or behind refrigerator unit are prone to get dusty, causing your fridge to work harder. A monthly cleaning would save on electricity and extend the life of your fridge. ▶ Smoke Detector System Appoint a certified technician to check your smoke detectors and fire alarm installations. It is vital that batteries of smoke detectors are replaced biannually and tested for proper working condition.

▶ Water heater and water pumps Each home has a single booster water pump located in the garage, operated by a pressure switch to regulate water pressure. A solar water heater with a rooftop circulation pump is provided. Residents are advised to address water leaks promptly to prevent system strain. ▶ Other Electricals If a complete power outage occurs in your townhouse and community, you can reach DEWA on +971 4 601 9999 to report it. If the disruption is limited to your home, inspect all circuit breakers, including the main breaker for damages and arrange for a service maintenance through a third-party provider. If there is no power to an electrical outlet Check if it is connected to a wall switch that may have not been turned on. Once this is determined, inspect the circuit breakers and reset any that may have turned off. If a hanging light fixture does not work You probably have a broken connection along a circuit. Check to see if wall switches, circuit breakers and the bulb has been installed properly. ▶ Pest Control Protect your family and your home from common pests like ants, bed bugs, cockroaches and rats by appointing a professional Dubai Municipality-licensed and approved pest control company. ▶ Landscaping If you have a home garden, it is recommended to mow your grass regularly and don’t let it grow too tall. Overgrown, unkempt grass is an invitation to lawn disease. During the summer months, watering the lawn is preferable at night or early morning. During the cooler months, you can water just once a day, early in the morning. ▶ Drainage Systems Clogged drains can threaten your home’s foundation and become a breeding ground for mosquitoes. It is recommended to test floor gutters drains twice a year to ensure they are working properly. Sign up for an annual contract with a reputed general maintenance company to keep a tab on your mechanical, electrical and plumbing systems. Should you have any queries or need further information, please reach out to Dubai Holding Community Management on 800 DUBAICM (382 2426) or support@dubaiholdingcm.ae

Resident Engagement

Customers are at the heart of everything we do. DHCM’s three pillars are community-centricity, customer focus and technology-driven, and the ‘how’ and ‘what’ we do in the business come back to these key drivers. Events and Activations We understand the significance of community cohesion and are committed to organising a wide array of events and activities that promote a sense of belonging. We actively curate a diverse range of celebrations, CSR initiatives, sports events, health and wellness programmes, social gatherings, traditional festivities, and family-oriented and pet-friendly activities. These events bring together families, children, teenagers, and individuals from different backgrounds, fostering a strong sense of community. Our activations are centred around sustainability and are aimed at educating and engaging our younger residents. Additionally, our campaigns promote responsible citizenship, focusing on community safety, responsible pet ownership, and other relevant topics. We host special focus groups and kids’ committees for our younger residents for children and teenagers who want to have their say in the community on relevant topics on a frequent basis. Corporate Social Responsibility Dubai Holding Community Management actively engages residents in yearly donative drives in collaboration with humanitarian organisations including Emirates Red Crescent and Islamic Affairs & Charitable Activities Department and creates avenues for homeowners and tenants to give back to the larger community, including the service provider community that works behind the scenes. Communications We are dedicated to fostering an open and connected community through various media of communication.

Reserve Fund The Reserve Fund has been established for the costs incurred in the capital maintenance and replacement of assets. It is vital to have a robust fund balance to guarantee not only the smooth running of the community but also to ensure that the value of the community and individual units are maintained well into the future. In order to ensure that the rates are calculated relevant to the requirement, we engage reserve fund study experts to evaluate conditions from time to time and also assess the remaining useful life of such capital assets based on which a suitable rate is applied.

Special Levy Special Levy is a one-off charge for items not in the design or those not covered under the community usage charge budget of the respective areas.

Community Income In addition to the Community Usage Charges, the income of the community is also boosted by the following: Marketing and Distribution Permit Fee To ensure that only legitimate businesses are granted access to the community to promote their goods and services, we regulate such activities through a permit system that allows the distribution of promotional material. An administration fee is collected and recorded as income to the community. Non-Compliance Penalty To ensure adherence to community rules and architectural guidelines, Notices of Violation (NOVs) are issued along with penalties to those who fail to comply. Private contractors are also given NOVs if they breach any community rule or carry out activities that contravene their entry permits. Vandalism is a serious offence and persons who vandalise community property are penalised and reported to the local law enforcement authorities. Funds from such penalties form part of the income to the community.

Notice of Non-Compliance A Notice of non-Compliance is an official notice from Dubai Holding Community Management issued via Dubai Land Department’s Mollak system, notifying homeowners or residents when a breach of a community rule is identified on the property. Upon the first occurrence of a violation, a warning is typically issued; however, in certain cases, an immediate fine may be imposed. Should the violation persist or remain unaddressed, a second and third warning, along with a Non-Compliance fine, will be issued accordingly. Important note: The warnings and fines from non-compliances are applicable as per RERA’s guidelines.

What is the purpose of the Notice of Non-Compliance? The main objective of the Notice of Non-Compliance is to uphold community rules, ensuring compliance with the community’s standards by all homeowners and residents, and to instigate corrective measures to prevent future violations.

Who bears responsibility for paying the Non-Compliance Penalty? The homeowner is accountable for settling the Non-Compliance Fine, regardless of whether the tenant is at fault.

How can the Non-Compliance Fine be paid? Homeowners will receive notification of the applicable Non-Compliance Fine through their Mollak account, along with a copy of the relevant Notice of Non-Compliance. Payments can be made on the Dubai Rest app. Non-payment will be escalated for further legal action.
