Complex Issues About Our Complex

A properly managed dumpster and garbage collection area is crucial for safety, health and aesthetics.  Overflowing or unclean dumpsters attract pests, create unsanitary conditions and are a potential hazard. 

Walkway lights are weathered, have rusted screws, deteriorating bases and poor lighting.  They should be replaced to provide a safer and well lit walkways in the Complex.

Our buildings have two layers of shingles: original roof with some second layers as old as 26 years.   To avoid costly repairs and potential damages, roofs should be replaced before massive issues occur,  Major Leaks are strong indicators that it is overdue. 

The chimney chase covers are old and weathered.  They should be replaced to proactively prevent and abate bigger problems like water damage, elements entering the chaise or pest infiltration.

Recent masonry and painting work in our buildings is prematurely problematic. Stucco patches are ugly, some showing signs of water absorption, crumbling or peeling. Given the typical lifespan of such work, the current condition of the buildings falls well short of expectations and presents an aesthetic detriment to the complex.

The main entrance gate is prone to breaking, malfunctioning or experiencing problems.  It hinders legitimate entry for residents, authorized visitors, deliveries, service, and potentially even emergency vehicles. The gate's performance and design poses a chronic challenge for everyone accessing the property.

The green TelCo boxes on the property are unsightly and require proper overhaul. Non-functional hubs should be removed, while those still supporting underground phone lines should be restored.

Routine exterior upkeep is important for curb appeal: blasting away dirt and grime makes our buildings look fresh and clean.  It will also protect our structures by removing harmful mold and mildew.

Regular removal of discarded items, loose trash and debris is not only important for the curb appeal, but should be done for safety and hygiene of the Complex grounds.

Guest parking signs should be restored and not changed without proper notice to the residents.  When required, the Association can use temporary sign cover to announce emergency/snow parking restrictions.

Absence of routine pest control on the complex grounds leads to problems in homes (pictured above is a Mud Dauber wasps nest on the building's exterior).

Vacuuming alone isn't enough. Deep cleaning (e.g. shampooing) annually or so should be done for healthy indoor spaces.  Placing door mats with drainage at quad entrances is an inexpensive solution that will trap dirt and grime, protecting the quads carpets.
