Mont Marin Sign (May '06):

The sign is up on the corner of Las Gallinas and Lucas Valley Road and the landscaping has been completed! We would like to thank our neighbor Roger Danford for designing the sign. Also, a huge thank you to Ray Lorber who worked with San Rafael officials to bring this idea to reality! Another neighbor, Marlies Carver took over landscaping of the sign area. I'm sure that everyone will agree that it looks great!

We need volunteers to monitor and maintain the sign landscaping - please call Marlies at 479-9841 if you are willing to help.

Good Neighbors

Several neighbors have asked MMHA to cite neighbors who are not maintaining their properties. Some areas of concern are: the Eucalyptus trees that are so fast growing and messy and have a potential to burn and/or fall down, plantings that encroach over sidewalks making it difficult to walk on the sidewalks, and plantings that make it difficult to see oncoming traffic at intersections. Please be a good neighbor and maintain your property for the safety and enjoyment of the entire neighborhood!!!

Mont Marin Streets:

Cedar Hill Drive, Upper Oak Drive, Canyon Oak, Coast Oak Way, Tan Oak Circle, Clover Hill, Twelve Oak Hill Dr., Maple Hill, Pine Hill Ct., Cherry Hill Court, Oak Tree Court and the West side of Las Gallinas Avenue from Lucas Valley Road to Cherry Hill.
