PAINTING PROJECTS FOR 2007
The following is a list of the buildings that will be painted this year. The project consists of siding and wood repair, power washing, and final painting. Only the wood siding on the buildings will be painted. Notices will be posted in all the buildings with the specific dates of the project. These are the buildings that will be painted.
Buildings 1, 2, 9, 11, and 14
The Decks and Patios in all 14 buildings will be stained this year.
The metal railings and posts will also be painted.
Instructions From the Board of Directors
The buildings will be power washed. The power washing will be done with
water and detergents to clean the surfaces for painting. Some of this
water may splash onto the decks, patios and common areas. The decks
and patios will also be pressure washed.
The Board of Directors is strongly recommending that personal property on the decks, patios and common areas be placed inside the units or covered while this project is under way. The patio and deck painting schedule will be posted for each building prior to the project start. There may be delays caused by weather so there will be times when a delay will occur after a schedule has been posted in a particular building. The Board of Directors is requesting that all unit owners cooperate with the painting contractor if there are sudden changes on the painting schedule. It will be up to each individual homeowner to clear personal property from the decks or patios. For those decks or patios that have property left on them on the date the painting will be done the painting contractor has been directed by the Board of Directors to paint around the personal property as best he can.
The Association will not be responsible for any damage to personal property left on the decks, patios or common areas.
NEW TILES
The Board of Directors is planning to install new tile floors in the laundry rooms of several buildings this spring. Notices will be posted at the appropriate time. All but 4 buildings have had new tile floors installed in the laundry rooms and utility rooms. This makes the laundry rooms look great and adds a bright new appearance to the laundry rooms.
NEW CARPETING
New carpeting will be installed in building 10 this Spring. The walls and ceilings in building 10 were repaired and painted. All of the buildings at Partridge Berry Hills have had new carpeting installed in all of the common areas within the last 4 years.
VERIZON FIBER OPTIC LINES
The VERIZON COMPANY has been installing fiber optic lines in all the buildings.
This will allow the residents of Partridge Berry Hills Condominium to subscribe to VERIZON for faster internet and telephone services. The installation of the fiber optic lines in the buildings is at no cost to the Association or to the unit owners. Those owners that wish to subscribe to the service will contract with VERIZON directly. Each owner will pay the installation costs to wire their unit for the VERIZON high speed Internet and telephone service.
THE SPEED LIMIT IS 10 MPH
The children of our community are out on their razors, roller blades, bicycles and other means of rapid transit!! Once in a while the adults may be out walking or jogging in the streets and parking lots too. Please obey the speed limit and watch out for pedestrians.
SPRING IS HERE!
With the spring season officially upon us, we are asking all residents to remove their winter supplies from the decks, patios, and mulch beds by May 15th. Units with shovels, sand, etc, that are not removed by May 15th may receive violation letters. For the avid gardeners the plastic bags that contain seed, fertilizer, potting soil and any other gardening accessories must not be stored on the decks, patios, mulch beds or anywhere on the common areas outside the units. All gardening tools and supplies must be stored inside the units.
POOL RULES
Please remember when using the pool that no one under the age of 16 is allowed to use the pool without adult supervision. Also, please do not let in anyone to the pool who does not have a key. We have neighboring communities around us and unfortunately, we have experienced problems with non-residents trying to gain access to our pool.
