Filming In The Riviera – For Home Owners

If you would like to print this information, please click filming-homeowner-guidelines17

The character of the California Riviera is quiet and unlike any other area in Los Angeles, and many of our homes are attractive to production companies for location filming.  While this may be flattering, and perhaps even financially rewarding to the owners of the homes selected, the hustle and bustle of location “shooting” is most often only an intrusion upon your neighbors.

The Board of Directors of the California Riviera Home Owners Association has established regulations and donations for filming on location in the California Riviera area.  The regulations are reasonable and should help to minimize disruption to neighbors.  The donation ($1000/for the first day and $750 each day thereafter, including prep & wrap days) is in line with other associations and will help defray the expenses involved in enforcing our CC&Rs.

To be effective, we need the cooperation of every resident in bringing the regulations and CRHOA permit requirements to the production company’s attention.

IF YOU ARE APPROACHED TO USE YOUR HOME FOR FILMING:

1.     Please tell the production company representative to immediately contact our Association office for a copy of our regulations, to fill out a filming notice and to make arrangements for payment of a fee.  The office number is 310-454-5245.  Kim Bantle, our Administrator, will coordinate the details. Forms and Regulations can be found on our website, www.rivierahomeowners.com.  Email Address is admin@rivierahomeowners.com.

2.     Contact the Association office yourself.

The Board of Directors asks for your cooperation in this matter.  We work to maintain a good rapport with the Film Permit Office of the City of Los Angeles, but the Permit Office issues hundreds of permits and will not always enforce our regulations for us.

Yours truly,

THE CALIFORNIA RIVIERA HOME OWNERS ASSOCIATION
