Community Guidelines

• Apartment Alterations

  Holes should not be drilled in your apartment without our prior written consent, nor should any nails, hooks, or screws be used on any floors, doors, windows, tub, shower, appliances, or fixtures in the apartment. Nothing should be fastened to the floors, doors, windows, walls, appliances, or fixtures in the apartment, the exterior walls, or porches of the buildings. Please refrain from hanging signs, advertisements, or notices on the outside or inside of any apartment or building. Locks on the doors leading to the apartment should not be altered without our consent. We must have a key to every lock at all times, and every lock must be compatible with the master key system for the building.

• Balcony/Patio/Terrace

  Please do not use the balcony, patio, or terrace of your apartment to store personal property. Additionally, no towels, rags, rugs, laundry, or other items should be hung from any balcony or terrace, nor should anything be thrown or dropped from the windows, balcony or terrace. Please refrain from cooking or barbequing on a porch, patio, or balcony.

• Common Areas

  Common areas, sidewalks, entrances, lobbies, hallways, elevators, or stairways of the community should not be used for any purpose other than entry and exit. Please do not place or store furniture, equipment, or personal articles in any common areas for any period of time. We may remove any such items at any time, at your expense, including any storage costs.

• Equipment Use

  All equipment located in your apartment or community should be used in a reasonable and careful manner. Equipment includes such things as toilets, sinks, electrical, plumbing, heating, ventilating, air conditioning, building access system, elevators, appliances, or other facilities. If you or your family, guests, or visitors use any equipment in a manner that causes damage to the equipment, you could be held responsible for the costs of repairing or replacing it.

• Facilities

  If your community has a pool, you must pay any required fees prior to usage. For your safety, please obey all pool rules and regulations. Games, sports, and other recreational activities are permitted only in designated areas. All rules and regulations must be obeyed including the days and hours that recreational facilities may be used. We may at any time discontinue any recreational services or close down facilities either temporarily or permanently.

• Heavy Items

  Items which weigh more than we determine is reasonable for the floor loading of the apartment are not permitted. You must check with us before bringing heavy items (i.e., waterbeds, safes, etc.) into the apartment.

• Lockouts

  If locked out during business hours, please come to the office with photo ID. After hours, please call the office to have the on-call technician contacted. After the first after hours lockout, a $25.00 fee is assessed for each subsequent lockout.

• Motor Vehicles

  Please keep in mind we may remove any vehicle at the owner’s expense if it appears abandoned, inoperable, does not display an inspection sticker and/or license plates, or the inspection and/or registration is expired. We apologize, but due to local water restrictions and hazardous substance ordinances, we cannot allow residents or their guests to work on their vehicles in the community parking areas. Vehicles may be washed only in designated areas. If there is no designated area, then washing vehicles is not allowed.

• Parking

  We ask that all visitors park in the overflow parking lots to allow residents the closest parking. Please obey all parking and traffic regulations posted on any private streets, roads, or drives. Parking areas are to be used only to park, load, and unload motor vehicles. Please note that there are handicapped parking spaces that have been designated by the community. Please do not park in these spaces without a handicapped permit or your vehicle will be towed. Your vehicle may be towed without notice at your expense if you: • Park in a fire lane • Park in a no parking area • Block a fire hydrant, refuse container, another vehicle, sidewalk, or lawn Oversized vehicles, commercial vehicles, recreational vehicles, boats, or trailers may not be parked in the community without our consent.

• Peaceful Enjoyment

  All residents, their family, and guests should conduct themselves in a manner that will not disturb their neighbors or community staff. Noise, odors, or any other actions that cause a disturbance are not permitted. Please do not interfere with the rights, comforts, or convenience of other residents or community staff. Remember you are responsible for the conduct of your family, friends, guests, and anyone you invite into the community. We will make reasonable efforts to stop neighbors from disturbing your peace, but we cannot be responsible for controlling their actions. If you are seriously disturbed by activities at your neighbor’s apartment, please call the police.

• Pets

  Pets welcome! We allow up to two pets and the weight limit (total) is 70 lbs. The deposit is $300 with a monthly fee of $25. Pets are not allowed in the apartment without our prior written consent. Please keep your pet on a leash at all times. Remember, you are responsible for cleaning up after your pet.

• Safety

  Please do not bring anything into your apartment or the community that increases the risk of fire. Things that could cause an increased risk of fire include flammable oils, fluids, propane, benzene, gasoline, kerosene, or other hazardous materials. Please refrain from cooking or barbequing on a porch, patio, balcony, or within 15 feet of any building, except as expressly permitted by your community.

• Satellite Dishes

  Satellite dishes one meter or less in size are permitted upon your signing a Lease Addendum – Satellite Antenna and Dishes.

• Trash

  Please be advised that the following rules and regulations regarding trash pick up services are going to be effective immediately. These rules are in place to ensure the service team can quickly and efficiently retrieve the trash while handling service requests. We appreciate everyone's cooperation with these rules so that the maintenance team can continue to offer this wonderful service. Trash pick up days are Monday, Wednesday, and Friday. All trash bags must be placed at the mailbox landing by 8:00 a.m. If trash has already been collected, it is the resident's responsibility to take the trash to the dumpster area. It is very important that trash not be placed outside on the evening before collection day or on non-collection days. Not only does this create an unsightly view for other residents but creates an odor throughout the building. In addition, we do not want to attract rodents or other animals that could become a problem for the community. All trash must be placed in a plastic bag and tied securely. No more than two bags of trash per day can be placed outside. Please do not place any trash in halls, stairways, balconies, or laundry rooms. All boxes and large trash items are to be placed in the dumpster directly. Bulk items such as furniture and car parts are to be disposed of outside of the community. Failure to follow these rules and regulations will result in a $25.00 penalty that will be assessed per occurrence.
