• Only conducts on-line sales and the owner is not an RHA Resident member. 
• Has relocated and/or no longer serves the Riviera community.
• Sells a product or provides a service that has a limited, niche, or legally restricted target audience, or the RHA Board otherwise determines is non-representative of the community.
• Has received negative reviews, complaints, or publicity to the extent the business or owner is not in good standing with the community.
• Uses social and other media to publicly express or share highly charged opinions or articles.
• Currently holds, has held, or has run for public office within the last five years.
• Any other reason in which the RHA Board determines the Business would not be well-received or of significant interest to the Riviera community.
