RRA Mailbox Information
Having attractive curbside mailboxes is a must for curb appeal. RRA regulations for unified mailboxes help Riverchase look neat and tidy. A few quick reminders, No flower containers shall be permitted in natural or landscaped areas or hanging from mailboxes. Security company signs must be in a landscaping bed adjacent to the house and not near your mailbox. If you have any questions or concerns regarding your mailbox or any other RRA compliance issues, please
contact CMA at (205) 517-8351 or email Stephanie Panagiotides at [email protected]
