Welcome to Riverwalk Vista

Dear Residents,

We would like to announce a significant update regarding the safety and security of our community. The HOA Board has approved the installation of the FLOCK system on all three entry/exit vehicle gates. The decision comes in line with our continuous efforts to maintain the safety and security of our community as our highest priority.

On July 21, 2023, community leaders from the City of Riverside had a productive meet and greet with our residents at the community pavilion. All Board members were present, along with representatives from the city, including Chief of Police, Larry Gonzales. During the interactions, Chief Gonzales recommended that we consider installing the FLOCK Safety system in our HOA.

The FLOCK Safety System, a comprehensive and proactive surveillance solution, is used nationwide by many municipalities and homeowners’ associations. The system’s cameras are equipped with advanced features to accurately capture and store critical data.

The video footage captured by the FLOCK cameras will be saved in the system for 30 days. The Board is in the process of establishing strict access protocols, including user identification passwords, documented reasons for access, and periodic audits. Please note that the Riverside Police Department will be authorized to remotely access our system as needed.

We appreciate your cooperation and understanding as we continue to enhance the safety and security of our community.

The 2025 COMMUNITY GARAGE SALES IS SCHEULED FOR October 12th and 13^th AND Signs will be placed at the main entrances on Indiana and La Sierra the week of the event. 

Dear Riverwalk Residents,
With all that is in the news, many owners find it essential to prioritize the safety and security of our community. Here are a few helpful hints.

1. Home Security:
   ● Ensure all doors and windows are properly secured, especially before leaving for holiday travels.
   ● Consider installing timers for lights to create the illusion of an occupied home.
   ● Collaborate with neighbors to keep an eye on each other’s properties.
2. Package Delivery Safety:
   ● With the increase in online shopping, be vigilant about package deliveries.
   ● Utilize package tracking services to monitor deliveries and retrieve them promptly.
   ● Consider installing secure drop-off boxes or using community package delivery services.
3. Exterior Lighting:
   ● Well-lit areas deter potential intruders. Check and replace outdoor lights to maintain visibility
   around your property.
   ● Motion-activated lights are an excellent addition to enhance security during the darker winter
   months.
4. Travel Safety:
   ● Inform a trusted neighbor about your travel plans.
   ● Request periodic checks on your property to ensure everything remains secure.
   ● Avoid broadcasting your absence on social media.
5. Vehicles:
   ● Ensure your vehicles are locked prior to entering your residence.
   ● Remove any valuable items from being visible for potential thieves/criminals.
