Central Park Architectural Design Guidelines

Mailbox and Post design (effective 9/2022)

​

All mailboxes and mailbox posts shall comply with the Central Park HOA Architectural Design Guidelines and must be approved by the ADC prior to installation. All mailboxes and posts must comply to USPS requirements.  

The Salisbury Classic Mailbox Post #4890Blk is discontinued and no longer in production. This is the style the City of Bel Aire, as developer, chose for The Park and The Village originally.

Central Park HOA is currently setting parameters for mailbox posts and mailboxes should they need to be replaced.

Neighbors who currently share post must continue to share.

*Posts and Mailboxes must be Black

*Posts and Mailboxes must be made of metal

*Mailbox openings must be 41”-45” from the road surface

*Neighbors who share a post are equally responsible for choice of style and must choose identical mailbox styles

*Neighbors who share a post are equally responsible for replacement costs unless only one neighbor is responsible for damage and/or destruction.

*If a new selected post is not a surface mount (as the original post) the homeowner/s are responsible to securely anchor the new post on/in the existing concrete pad. Homeowners may choose to remove the existing pad and securely mount the post in the original spot. This must look like or be professionally installed and aesthetically pleasing.

If a new selected post is not compatible with the Salsbury Industries Heavy Duty Rural Mailbox…Black…#4850 (the original mailbox style) new mailboxes must be purchase along with the new post.

*Each homeowner is responsible for the maintenance of their respective post and/or mailbox.  Mailboxes on a shared post require both homeowners to share maintenance responsibility equally as per the CP HOA covenants.  Homeowners are expected to keep mailboxes and posts in good working condition as well as sealed and painted as the original paint fades and deteriorates.

USPS.com states “position your mailbox 41”-45” from the road surface to the bottom of the mailbox front. Place your mailbox 6”-8” back from the curb”.

Locking mailboxes are not restricted in Central Park, however, it is recommended to speak to your carrier before deciding to switch to a locking mailbox.  Mail carriers are not allowed to carry keys.  Locking mailboxes must be the specific Salsbury Rural Mailbox.
