Welcome to the Members Area of the Comstock Garden site!

If you have not contacted our office at 925-686-4235 to let us know your name and provide a contact phone number/email, please do so today. We would like to personally welcome you and make sure that you have received a copy of our Resident’s Handbook. This handbook should have been included in the document package you received in escrow. It contains vital information regarding the rules and regulations of our community. If you did not recieve it or would like another copy, you can request one be delivered to you.

Helpful hints for new homeowners:

• Please break down cardboard boxes and put them to the side of the dumpsters.
• Make sure that all your new window treatments are white or neutral on the outside.
• Please do NOT place charcoal grills on balconies. Gas grills that use the 5 gal. LP canisters are also prohibited by 2008 fire regulations.
• Comstock has random towing so vehicles left parked in the driveways and fire lanes may be at risk for tow.
• Please ask guests to park ONLY in spots marked as guest spots. All other spaces are marked PRIVATE, which means you must have the permission of the owner to use it.

If you have questions about your homeowner's dues, please contact our account manager at Condo Financial Management (CFM). You can reach Betty at 925-566-6803.

Please review our rules regarding architectural integrity of the outside of the buildings before you make any changes that would be visible to your neighbors. You may print a copy of our architectural alteration form (Word format) here. When complete, fax it to the office at 925-226-4989.

There are 2 brands of windows permitted by our specifications. If you are considering window replacement, please review our window specifications before you contract for any windows. Included are suggested service providers and window requirements. Make sure you do NOT order or install your windows before receiving your approved alteration form.

There can be penalties imposed for failure to comply with this alteration request process so we strongly urge you do NOT begin alterations until you have received the approved form from the association. This includes everything from satellite dishes to light fixture. Check your handbook for regulations governing satellite dishes PRIOR to contacting anyone to install a satellite dish.

The summer of 2010 was a busy one with mansard wood shingle replacement and dry rot work finished, the entire complex repainted, new signage installed, 5 new water heaters and recirculating pumps installed, and new washers and dryers provided by WEB Laundries. In September we also replaced aging sewer lines on 5 buildings and seal coated the driveway in the 2031-2037 court. You are moving into a community that truly cares about our property and it shows. We are proud that we have been able to fund all of this work (over $280,000) within our existing reserve funding plan and without the need for a special assessment.

Information regarding Special Assessments and monthly dues is provided on the Realtor page.
