Purpose

This policy aims to maintain the cleanliness, safety, and aesthetic value of the Almiya Subdivision by regulating the installation and maintenance of internet and CCTV cables. Unorganized wiring not only creates visual clutter but may also pose safety and fire hazards.
 

Scope

This policy applies to all homeowners, renters, internet service providers (ISPs), CCTV installers, and any third-party contractors working within Almiya Subdivision.

General Guidelines

1. Designated Routes and Poles

• All wires must follow designated cable routes and be installed only along assigned utility poles.

• Cables must be routed on one side of the pole only to avoid entanglement and maintain an orderly appearance.
   

2. Bundling and Support

• All cables must be neatly bundled using cable ties, clamps, or similar fasteners.

• Whenever possible, cables should be enclosed in PVC pipes or flexible conduits for added protection and visual appeal.

• Loose, hanging, looped, or sagging wires are strictly prohibited.
   

3. No Overhead Crossings

• Wires must not cross streets, driveways, or pathways overhead.

• Installers are required to use designated perimeter cable paths.

• If there is a valid need to cross a road, written approval from the AHAI Maintenance Committee is required. A detailed layout map indicating the proposed crossing must be submitted and signed by the committee before any work can proceed.
   

4. Cable Removal and Rewiring

• Abandoned, unused, or damaged cables must be removed immediately.

• The HOA reserves the right to order reinstallation, rerouting, or clean-up, with all costs charged to the homeowner or service provider responsible.
   

5. Pre-Installation Clearance

• All new installations of internet, CCTV, or similar services must be pre-cleared with the HOA Office.

• Installers are required to sign a compliance form and submit a basic layout plan before starting any work.
   

6. Service Provider Coordination

• All ISPs and service providers operating within Almiya must coordinate with the HOA to organize and consolidate cable routes per street, preventing multiple independent or disorganized installations.
   

7. Homeowner Responsibility and Access to Private Property

• If a utility pole is located within a homeowner's private property or gated premises, installers must obtain the homeowner's permission before entering, setting up ladders, or performing any work.
   

• Access may be coordinated through the HOA Admin Office, which will notify the homeowner and facilitate communication and approval.
   

• Unauthorized access is strictly prohibited, unless there was a confirmed schedule of installation or servicing previously agreed upon with the homeowner.
   

• Homeowners are encouraged to monitor any installation or repair activities within their property. Any damage or violations caused by service providers shall be the responsibility of the homeowner if access was granted without HOA coordination.
