2. Obscene and untoward behavior shall not be tolerated within the Subdivision.
VI. WASTE MANAGEMENT
The Association adheres to the principle of proper management and disposal of waste as
a way of supporting environmental protection. This includes the practice of segregation,
recycling and composting. By doing so, the Association will help in reducing the
garbage that goes into dumpsites/landfills.
A. SEGREGATION OF GARBAGE
1. Golden Rule: DO NOT MIX YOUR GARBAGE. SEGREGATE at source.

Separate the DRY from the WET.
2. There are four categories of waste for which you will be needing one container
or trash bin for each, namely: a) KITCHEN WASTE, b) RECYCLABLE
PAPER/CARDBOARD, c) OTHER RECYCLABLES/REUSABLES, and d)
NON-RECYCLABLES or RESIDUAL or LATAK
a) Kitchen Waste – Put kitchen and/or food waste in plastic container which
can be covered. Ice cream containers are ideal for this. Keep the kitchen
waste covered so as not to let any odor out and so as not to attract flies.
After the last meal in the evening, all these kitchen waste can be placed in
your compost pit or pot. Follow instructions on home composting (See
section B below.)
b) Recyclable Paper/Cardboard - For those that were used to contain food,

scrape the food off using napkin or damp cloth before dumping into the
trash bin. They should also be allowed to dry first. This category
includes newspaper, magazines, telephone directory, pad paper, bond
paper, scratch paper, flyers, boxes, cartons, and the like. Waste in this
category can be brought to our Ecology Center if you opt not to sell to
our recyclable buyers.
c) Other Recyclables/Reusables – These include cans, bottles, broken glass,

plastic ware, disposable utensils such as cups, forks and spoons, plastic
bottles and containers, aluminum cans, plastic bags (torn and not torn),
PVC, G.I. sheets, steel, car batteries, computer ink cartridges and
fluorescent bulbs. (Refer to Annex C for complete listing of recyclables.)
Those used to contain food or liquid should be rinsed in used
dishwashing water. Items in this category can also be brought to our
Ecology Center if you opt not to sell them.
d) Non-Recyclables or Residual or Latak Waste – These include aluminum

foil or aluminum packaging, Styrofoam, waxed paper, carbon paper,
cellophane or cellophane packaging, candy wrappers, shampoo sachets
and the like, toothpaste tubes, ballpens, etc. (Refer to Annex D for
complete listing.) Note that used sanitary napkins and disposable diapers
can be composted if the plastic layers are taken off. If not taken off,
these have to be discarded as residual or latak but make sure they are
properly wrapped and not exposed. All these items in these category will
be collected weekly by the city garbage truck.
B. WET GARBAGE (BIODEGRADABLE)
1. For waste that are WET (i.e. biodegradable), HOME COMPOSTING is

encouraged.
2. To do home composting, you may either use COMPOST PITS or CLAY

FLOWER POTS. The latter is advisable if you do not have any backyard space.
Using Compost Pits
a) Choose a patch of land which gets plenty of sunlight and ventilation. Dig
two holes half a meter apart. Each hole should measure two cubic feet.
b) Place a small branch at the bottom of each, and a piece of PVC pipe (the
size that you use for water lines) in the middle in vertical position. These
ensure that your compost pit is aerated.
c) Begin burying your wet or biodegradable waste (food and/or kitchen waste)
in one of the holes at the end of the day.
d) Cover every layer of waste you bury with a layer of soil. Don‟t stamp the
soil but leave it loose. To make sure you are covering your pit properly,
check for flies. No flies means no malodorous smell and therefore your
waste is covered enough.
e) Water your compost pit everyday just enough to moisten the surface. This
speeds up decomposition.
f) In case of rain, cover your pit with a sheet of plastic or galvanized iron so
buried waste doesn‟t float up.
g) Begin using the second hole as soon as the first one is filled. By the time
you are done with it, you can dig out the contents of the first pit. The buried
waste should have been converted to compost, to be used as fertilizer.
Using Clay Flower Pots
a) If you do not have any backyard space, use clay pots. Place a layer of soil in
the bottom of your pot and start making a “garbage lasagna”: a layer of wet
waste followed by a layer of soil until you fill up the pot, making sure the top
surface ends with a layer of soil.
b) Water the pot everyday with a bit of water just to moisten it. It will take
around 15 days for waste in a pot to compost, so it is good to have several
pots on hand.
TIP: To hasten decomposition, shred or chop your compostable waste into

smaller pieces before composting. Separate bones from chicken, pork, beef and
fish, seafood shells and fruit seeds since these take longer to decompose.
Compost them separately in another pit or container. You can also sprinkle
lime over the waste during the composting process to ensure the eradication of
any smell.
3. If, however, home composting is a problem due to space constraint, lack of

manpower (no household helpers), or for whatever legitimate reason, call our
Administration Office and ask to be referred to your Waste Management
Committee representative.
C. DRY GARBAGE (NON-BIODEGRADABLE)
1. For waste that are DRY (i.e., non-biodegradable), classify them into
RECYCLABLES (refer to Annex D) and RESIDUAL or “LATAK” (Refer to
Annex C) and follow the procedures below:
Recyclables (Refer to Annex C)
a) Sell your recyclable to our accredited recyclable buyers, KILUS

FOUNDATION, who pass from them every Wednesday and LINIS
GANDA on Sundays.
b) While waiting for them weekly, make sure the accumulating recyclable are
segregated, clean, dry, flat (for boxes, cartons, cardboard, paper) and
properly stored in their own containers INSIDE YOUR PREMISES.
Leaving them outside is in violation of City Ordinance #30-02 and will
expose them to rain and dirt, which would render them useless to our
recyclable buyers.
c) If you do not want to sell your recyclable, bring and donate them to our
village Ecology Center located at our park grounds accessed from
Asparagus Street. It is open daily from 2:00-4:00 pm. However, they should
also be properly segregated, cleaned, dried, and flattened (for boxes, cartons,
cardboard, paper).
Residual or Latak (Refer to Annex D)
a) Give your residuals or “latak” waste to our garbage truck collectors every
FRIDAY.
b) A green police is deputized to monitor that ONLY residual or “latak” waste

is thrown or given to the garbage truck collectors. First time violators shall
be sent a warning letter. Second time violators, unless contested, will have
no choice but to dispose of their own trash as this will not be picked up
anymore.
D. TREE CUTTINGS/ GARDEN DEBRIS
1. Please remove leaves and put them in trash bags for collection every Friday
together with the Residual garbage.
2. Bundle branches and twigs for collection every Saturday.

3. Store and keep inside your premises, i.e., inside your gates. Do not dump in
vacant lots as this is in violation of City Ordinance # 30-02. This will also
become an eye sore for our residents and will be out of sight for the garbage
truck collectors to notice and pick-up.
E. DOG DROPPINGS
1. You can walk your dogs anytime around the village but be sure to BRING
PLASTIC BAGS and/or OLD NEWSPAPERS AT ALL TIMES for use to pick
up their droppings or their excreted dirt. Do not leave dog droppings in any
part of the Subdivision including roads, sidewalks, alleys, and vacant lots.
2. Dispose of your dog‟s droppings by flushing them in your toilets or burying

them and covering with soil properly within your residence‟ premises.
F. GARBAGE CANS/ RECEPTACLES
1. Keep within your premises, i.e., inside your gates. If your residence is gateless,
keep them within your premises and out of sight of other residents.
This village rule is in consonance with City Ordinance #30-02, to wit:
“Sec.3: It is unlawful for owners/residents/lessees, occupants of

residential houses/dwelling units, business establishments and other
institutions to bring out garbage, refuse, debris and other unwanted
materials outside the scheduled time of garbage collection…”
“Sec.6: Any violation of this Ordinance shall be punishable by the

following:
First Offense: Fine of P1,000.00

Second Offense: Fine of P3,000.00
Third Offense: Fine of P5,000.00 or imprisonment of 30 days…”
G. OTHERS
1. For waste generated from private parties hosted at park facilities: CLEAN AS
YOU GO! It is therefore the resident‟s responsibility to ensure that the caterer
clean up and bring out with them all kinds of waste generated from
hosting/servicing the party. Leaving waste behind shall result in the forfeiture
of your bond (Please refer to the rules on the use of the Park facilities).
2. For waste generated from house construction: Keep within construction

premises or within a designated bonded warehouse area, making sure these do
not overspill onto village roads, sidewalks, neighbor‟s property lines. Haul
them out of the village upon completion of construction (Please refer to the
rules on Construction Projects).
3. For food waste of construction workers: Provide a compost pit at site and
follow same procedure as home composting.
VII. OTHER RULES AND REGULATIONS
A. GARAGE SALE
1. Resident/Homeowners who intend to conduct a garage sale in their homes are

advised to inform the Association‟s Administration Office of their plans in order
that appropriate security measures can be instituted during the sale period. The
period of sale should not exceed two (2) calendar days.
B. FILMING
1. No filming or location shooting of commercial movies or advertisements shall be

allowed within the subdivision without the prior written approval of the
Association‟s Security Committee who shall evaluate and decide on the proposed
filming on the basis of the potential disturbance that it may cause to the other
residents within the subdivision.
C. PETS
1. Residents may only keep pet dogs, cats, fish and birds in their residence.
However, the Association reserves the right to make the resident limit the
number of its pets if found to create unreasonable noise and disturbance to its
neighbors.
2. Farm animals (such as chicken, game-cocks, goats, horses, cows, hogs and the
like) and wildlife species (such as reptiles, wildcats, wolves or carnivorous
fishes) are strictly prohibited to be kept or bred within the subdivision.
3. Pets must be confined within the member‟s residence and dogs may be taken
out only on a leash. The Association‟s employees and security personnel are
instructed/authorized to capture any stray animal and turn this over to the
Administration Office. Captured stray animal will be disposed of if unclaimed
within 48 hours of its captivity.
4. Resident-members shall be responsible for the proper upkeep of their pets and
ensure that these do not aggravate other residents with their noise, litter and
smell.
5. Pets of any kind are not allowed in the Subdivision‟s park and playground, and
Squash Drive.
VIII. ASSOCIATION DUES AND OTHER FEES
The Association will collect from its owner / members during the month of January each
year an annual assessment that will be used to finance its operations and activities for
discharging its functions and responsibilities effectively. The rate of assessment will be
established by the Association‟s Board of Directors and will be subject to review and
change based on needs. The amount of Association dues and rates are shown in Annex
B. Also shown in Annex B are fees for miscellaneous services provided by the
Association such as issuance of IDs, endorsement or certification letters for residents,
flyers/advertisements, etc.
PART III
GUIDELINES FOR HOMEOWNERS AND RESIDENTS
I. COMMUNITY WELFARE
The Association enjoins all residents and homeowners to respect at all times the rights of
their fellow residents particularly where the peaceful enjoyment of their residence in the
Subdivision is concerned. The following are some guidelines for the Valle Verde 5
residents and homeowners:
1. Maintain sound and noise at reasonably low levels in our respective homes.
2. Use car horns only when absolutely necessary, as for road safety. Tooting of horns
to call for the opening of gates should be done very briefly. Continuous tooting of
horns should be avoided. Likewise, any tooting of horns during sleeping hours or
late at night should be avoided.
3. Keep one‟s respective frontages and perimeters clean and free from garbage, debris
and malodorous elements. It is the resident‟s responsibility to keep its front area
clean through regular daily sweeping of dried leaves and all kinds of litter.
4. If a resident has a complaint about his/her neighbor, he/she should try to settle it
amicably by talking directly to the person concerned. If the resident needs the
Association to mediate, it can submit a written request for this purpose, explaining
the background and relevant details. If no resolution is arrived at between the two
parties and even with the mediation of the Association, the resident may formally
file a complaint with the Barangay Council or if necessary, with the legal courts.
II. SECURITY IN RESIDENTS’ HOMES
While the Association shall exert its best efforts in securing and protecting the Village
and its residents, the security and protection of each household is still a primary
responsibility of the individual homeowner/resident. The guidelines and tips are as
follows:
A. PROVIDING SECURITY REINFORCEMENTS
1. Residents with houses having low fences are enjoined to reinforce their perimeter
areas for security reasons. Homeowners whose houses have unfenced front yards
must exercise extra security precautions, especially at nighttime, to prevent
intrusion into their houses.
2. Homeowners with residences that have dimly illuminated compounds/premises

are advised to increase their lighting. At nighttime, lights at the front and rear
doors and corners of building should be kept on whether the Residents are at
home or away.
3. Residents who have not yet registered with the Valle Verde 5 Association their
household servants, gardeners, drivers and private guards should register them
soonest. Registration has been observed to serve as a psychological deterrent for
these persons to get involved in theft, robbery and other petty crimes while
employed inside the Village.
4. Should there be any tall cogon grass growing on vacant spaces in the Village
which could serve as hiding places for “intruders”, such should be reported to the
Administration for appropriate action.
5. Ladders should be locked away while not in use.
6. Have all locks changed when moving into a new house.
7. Pin tumbler locks on all outside doors offer the best protection. Doors with glass
panels should also have double cylinder locks, which require keys on the inside.
Sliding glass doors and windows can be better protected by placing a piece of
wood in the bottom track, movement is prevented.
8. Residents should keep police type whistles at home. These should be strategically
located inside the house, and should easily be retrievable when needed. The idea
is to blow as many whistles as possible to signal for help from neighbors and
security guards in case of emergency.
9. Large sums of money, expensive jewelry or other valuables should not be kept at
home. Rent a safety deposit box in your bank. Leaving large sums of money at
home can be a temptation to the other members of the household.
10. Train your maids and houseboy to be security conscious.
11. Private security guards engaged in residence should be spot checked for alertness
and clearly informed of your requirements.
B. SECURITY TIPS WHEN AT HOME
1. Refrain from automatically opening the door whenever the doorbell rings.
2. Demand credentials before admitting salesmen or repairmen.
3. Do not patronize peddlers and ambulant buyers as these can be potential burglars.
4. Outside doors should be kept locked at all times. Some thieves look for residents
who are working in the yard, hanging laundry, or otherwise engaged outside.
Then, they approach from the opposite side of the house and enter through an
unlocked door to steal purses, money, jewelry and other valuable items.
5. If telephone calls with “wrong numbers” are continually received, be suspicious.
Do not reveal your own phone number or address to unknown callers and never
admit to them that you are alone.
6. Do not continue conversation with “nuisance” callers.
7. When a stranger requests to use your telephone, do not permit him/her to enter the
house.
8. Conduct a Security Check every night before retiring. Be sure all doors and
windows are locked and appropriate lights are on.
9. In instances when you suddenly discover that a burglar has already entered your
house, the following can be done:
Turn on lights to frighten a burglar. Burglars are generally interested only

in stealing, not harming.
Use pre-arranged signals in the form of loud whistles or blinking lights

after the burglar has left your house.
If you are a victim of thieves, call the Subdivision security and/or police
immediately. Do not touch anything until fingerprint technicians and
investigators have done their job of lifting latent fingerprints and
conducting other security investigation measures.
C. SECURITY TIPS WHEN NOT AT HOME
1. When going out at night, leave one or more lights inside the house or perhaps,
have a radio playing softly but enough to be heard outside. A residence that
presents a lived-in appearance is less conducive to being entered into by
burglars. Maids should be instructed to be alert during your absence.
2. Do not leave door keys under flowerpots, doormats or other “obvious” places.
3. If you find a door or window forced open or broken while you were absent, do
not enter. The criminal may still be inside. Use a neighbor‟s phone
immediately or other means to summon the Subdivision guards or the police.
4. Take great care in the selection of maids, driver‟s etc. Insist that maids take
the same precaution as you do. Instruct them not to admit strangers. Give
them the phone number where you or the guards, Barangay, or the police can
be reached.
D. HELPING OUR NEIGHBORS

1. Know your neighbors to easily recognize a stranger who must be observed.
2. In the spirit of neighborliness and community assistance, be alert in protecting

not only your own house, but your neighbor‟s as well. Let us be part of the
“Neighborhood Watch”. Do not tell a stranger that your neighbor is not at
home.
3. Let‟s respond to our neighbor‟s need, as we would want him to respond to

ours. A neighbor‟s call to the police may save a life, property or valuable
possessions.
4. Let‟s talk with our neighbor about crime problems and crime prevention. We
can discuss joint cooperation in keeping watch on each other‟s home.
5. If you see or hear a prowler at your house or at a neighbor‟s premises at night,

use the telephone to notify the Village security and/or police. Also indicate
alarm with whistle signals, etc. Do not become impatient when help seems
slow in coming as people who respond usually approach silently in their
attempt to cut off avenues of escape.
6. If you observe suspicious persons or occurrences, contact the Village security

or the police immediately.
7. Write down the license number of vehicles used by suspicious persons in the
neighborhood and inform the security guard.
8. In case of intrusion, residents are advised to use the following distress signals
adopted for the Village in order to get outside help. There are two types of
signal that are to be used by residents who are in distress and in need of help.
These are:
a. One or more whistles blown inside (but preferably outside) the house
b. Continuous blinking “on and off” of lights inside and outside the house.
(The blinking of lights in a house should be interpreted by residents and
guards as a distress signal for help.)
9. Neighbors who read the distress signals should immediately contact the Valle
Verde 5 Security, PNP or the Barangay and request assistance.
10. The guard on duty shall promptly respond in a manner that will not harm, or
increase the danger to the members of the beleaguered household. Catching
the culprits is secondary to ensuring safety of the household members.
Culprits caught by security guards shall be promptly turned over to the
Barangay or the Police for investigation and filing of criminal charges.
III.SAFETY
A. FIRE PREVENTION
1. Electrical Source
Wiring
a) A licensed master electrician or electrical engineer should inspect house

electrical installations regularly. He should be able to assure homeowners that
the service entrance wiring can carry the total house load.
b) Adequate safety switches and fuses or circuits breakers on the main line and
individual electrical circuits should be provided.
c) All electrical wiring should be installed safely in conduit pipes.
d) Avoid temporary, dangling connections.
Line Loading
a) Provide individual circuits for each heavy electrical appliance such as air-
conditioners, electrical range, stove, deep well pumps, and others.
b) Avoid “octopus” connections.
Servicing
a) Leave the servicing and repair to qualified persons. Do not improvise.
b) Do not replace blown out fuse with a higher rated fuse or with a wire.
c) Appliances:
Air-conditioners: Have the motor and electrical connections serviced

regularly. This should include loose sockets.
Flat-iron: Replace frayed electrical cords immediately. When in use, do not

leave unattended even for a few minutes.
Fluorescent Lamps: Replace defective (humming) ballasts.

TV and Video Equipment- Disconnect power connections when leaving the
room for a long period.
2. Gas Stove/Range
a) Lighting: Always turn on lights first before turning on LPG gas valves, never
the opposite,
b) LPG Gas Leaks:
Stove/Range: Service regularly; check for leaks, and repair immediately.
Worn-out or soft rubber hose: Check for leaks. Replace loose-fitting, worn-
out or soft rubber hose.
Gas Cylinder: Do not use leaking cylinders.
c) Storage: Store gas cylinders outside the house.
d) Cleaning: Clean gas stoves or range of oils spills or accumulated food debris
on a daily basis.
3. Storage of Flammable Materials
Do not store large quantities of flammable materials inside the house especially
highly volatile liquids such as gasoline.
4. Other Potential Hazards
a) Smoking: Refrain from smoking when lying in bed or in a couch. Provide

ashtrays. Crush thoroughly lighted cigar or cigarettes before discharging.
b) Matches and Lighters: Keep in a safe place away from the reach of
children. Strictly discourage children from playing with matches or open
flames.
c) Burning of Dry Leaves or Refuse: Do not burn dry leaves or refuse. Arrange
for disposal with other garbage.
d) Use of Charcoal: Do not use gasoline to kindle charcoal. Extinguish the

ember after use.
e) Open flames: Do not use for decorations. When using candles or gas lamps,
keep in a place where they do not topple easily. Keep away from the curtains.
f) Housekeeping: Clear the roof and gutter of accumulated dry leaves. Remove
wood shaving or litter ceiling/attic areas. Avoid indiscriminate accumulation
of combustible materials inside the house such as waste paper and rags.
g) Leaving the House. When going on vacation and nobody is left in the house,
turn off the main switch. Unplug all appliances, Instruct household staff on
safety practices.
5. Fire Extinguisher
Residence should keep/maintain a working fire extinguisher and household

members should be taught how to operate said equipment. This measure could
prove very useful in the early containment of fires.
6. Smoke Alarms/Fire Alarms
It is also strongly advised that residents install smoke alarms or fire alarms in
strategic places in their homes (e.g., near the kitchen, etc.)
B. GENERAL SAFETY
1. Swimming Pools
 If very young children live in/visit your residence, surround swimming pool
with protective fencing.
 Never leave children unattended in the pool.
 Keep chlorine and acids away from children and pets.
2. Fireworks and explosives
Do not store such items in your homes. These are dangerous items.
3. Driving Habits
Observe Valle Verde 5 traffic and driving regulations. Do not drive recklessly.
Stop at signs near intersections. Be courteous and give way at corners and
intersections. Exercise caution when backing out of driveways or from any other
parking area in the Subdivision. Watch out for pedestrians. Do not drive after
