Rules & Regulations

Residential Properties


Public Investment Corporation (PIC) maintains and enforces rules and regulations to ensure residents can peacefully enjoy their properties. We reserve the right to revise and update these rules and regulations at any time. Residents must comply with the most current version, as posted on the PIC website and in the office.

Residents are responsible for the actions of their guests and any other individuals on the premises due to their occupancy. We encourage all residents to become familiar with the rules, regulations, and associated fees. Any violation is considered a breach of the Residents’ Lease Agreement.


No Smoking Policy

All units are non-smoking. Any current tenant has until their next renewal to comply with this policy.
