General Maintenance Reminders:
- Please do not leave trash or recyclables in the hallways or common areas. A fine will be charged for trash or boxes left anywhere other than the designated trash or recycling areas.
- Cleanliness and neatness of individual units and common areas help maintain a pest-free residence. All buildings are treated at least once monthly for preventative pest control.
- Be cautious regarding items you dispose of in your toilet. Our plumbing systems are not equipped to handle anything other than toilet paper and human waste. Disposal of sanitary napkins, moist towelettes, etc., down the toilet may result in clogged toilets, which then overflow and damage your bathroom and the unit below. If water does get on the floor, put towels down immediately to prevent damage to the apartment below.
- Report any leaks to the management office immediately.
- Tenants are responsible for replacing light bulbs inside their unit.
