Condo II – November 2025
“November’s blessings are found in the whispers of gratitude, the echoes of kindness, and the joy of giving thanks.” – Anonymous
As we all know, the new budget began on October 1st. Please make sure you are paying the correct amount of common charges. If you have not done so, please contact your financial institution to change the monthly common charge amount if you make automatic payments. Remember that it is the homeowner’s responsibility to make sure your account is current, not only with common charges but with billbacks as well. Your account needs to be current to avoid any overdue balance fees. You can request a customer ledger from the HOA office, which will tell you the status of your account. If you have any questions, the office will be able to assist you.
Please remember that hose bibs MUST be shut off. This is the responsibility of each homeowner. When the weather is very cold, the water can freeze inside the pipes. Although you have shut off the valve inside your house, there will still be some water left inside the pipes. It is important to drain this water so there is no chance of it freezing. If the water is left in the pipe, it can cause them to burst, thus causing unnecessary damage/flooding to your unit. If you have any questions or have trouble doing this, you can contact maintenance, and someone will be able to help you.
If you would like access to the basement, the basement hours are as follows:
• Second Saturday of every month from 11-11:15am
• Fourth Sunday of every month from 11-11:15am
Holiday hours are as follows:
• November 29th 11am to 12 pm
• December 6th 11am to 12pm
• January 3rd 11am to 12pm
• January 10th 11am to 12pm
All items being stored in the basement must be sealed in plastic containers that clearly state the resident’s name, address, and phone number. Please remember that the Condo is not responsible for any lost or stolen items. Many of you use the basement to store your personal belongings. In the near future, the condo will be reorganizing and going through the basement. If you have items that do not belong in the basement, please remove them immediately. If you are unsure of what can be stored in the basement, please send an email to the Board of Managers, and the information will be sent to you. It is a good idea if you have items in the basement to check and make sure that everything is labeled and stored correctly. You will also be contacted with instructions if you need to take action.
For those of you who are snowbirds, please make sure that you leave your key with someone and let the condo know in case of an emergency. Also, leave a phone number where you can be reached as well. Make sure to properly winterize your condo before you leave.
In regards to fire prevention, remember that it is your responsibility as a homeowner to clean and maintain your dryer vents and furnaces. It is mandatory to have these cleaned and inspected. Please submit the proper paperwork to the Condo II Board. It is also a good time to check the expiration dates of your fire extinguishers, any extra smoke and or carbon monoxide detectors, and replace them if needed. It is imperative that we all do our part in keeping this community safe.
Happy Thanksgiving from the Condo II Board of Managers
