  WANT TO RENT A SPACE IN ALTAMIRA RV LOT?

Please read this entire page and follow directions

The Altamira RV Lot Management, (ARVLM) has a total of 40 usable spaces. The lot is shared by Altamira I, II & IV residents.  The lot is located at 6672 Paseo del Norte and is managed entirely by volunteers, as set-up by the original developer in 1976.  Two volunteers from each association manages the lot independently of the three HOA's, per the developer's original guidelines.  The small plot of land was designated to be used as an RV storage facility for a nominal monthly fee to benefit as many residents at Altamira I, II and IV as possible.  This is an "all volunteer effort", we do not offer concierge service. The volunteers do what they can to maintain the lot's general infrastructure, but it is up to each member to keep their space free of weeds and critters.  General infrastructure maintenance includes fencing, and landscaping along the fencing, lighting and gate maintenance.  Weeds and critter bait are addressed as the volunteers have the time to devote to the effort.  Members are asked to regularly maintain their own space, which includes weeds, their own critter traps and kept free of debris/storage except for an approved locked storage box.  

In the beginning the lot was a bare unimproved lot.  As the members saved up their dues, improvements were made. It took many years to pre-fund all the improvements you see today.  Some of the improvements include fencing, security lighting, rock, concrete driveway, the commercial rolling gate and most recently the code/pinpad security entrance. In other words all improvements and overhead have always been paid by the members using the lot. The lot has been 100% self sufficient and member managed per the original developer's intent since 1976 and the rent has stayed the same amount's thanks in large part to the hardworking volunteers from each association.

Spaces are rented based on the space size needed and if one is available. If a space is not available, we have a waitlist. We almost always have smaller size spaces available under 15'. If you would like to be added to the wait list, please follow the instructions in item #1, below.  Send your signed/initialed agreement to the address listed on the agreement along with all requested information. It is suggested that you follow up with an email to altamirarvlot@gmail.com to confirm all necessary paper work has been received by us.  A volunteer member will contact you when we have a spot available. It is at this time you will receive  an invoice with the amount to pay and return within 7 days. The invoice will include the deposit and how many months are left in the billing cycles between Jan thru June or July thru December, whichever apply.

Please be patient and keep in mind the larger spaces needed for a Class C or a larger boat are in short supply due to the configuration of the lot, which is a long narrow triangle.  For instance we've had only 1 RV parked in the lot that was 34/35' and it was very difficult to maneuver in and out for all concerned.  The lot can only accommodate 3 or 4 large RV's. The lot configuration is designed to accommodate as many units as possible versus larger units.

Please feel free to contact our coordinator at (altamirarvlot@gmail.com), or your HOA's Representative Volunteer listed above if you have any questions.
