Condo I – April 2025
Welcome to Our New Neighbors!
Gaurav, Anita, Mayank, & Hezal Dua – 56 Skyline Dr.
Next Open Condo One Meeting – Tues., April 22 at 7:30 Come to the open meeting at the clubhouse and find out what has been going on in Condo 1.
Parking Plaza 3A Basement – Thank you to all who removed their belongings from the PP 3A basement in time for work to start. The items left behind actually filled 2 dumpsters. It was discovered that many of the items not removed in time had once belonged to people who had either moved or passed away. That being said it might be a good idea to inform relatives or executors of any belongings you may have put in the basement so they can remove them when the time comes. Or even better, as you realize you no longer need certain belongings, please, remove them yourself or ask maintenance to help you remove them.
As of this writing, the mold remediation is underway. The rip-out of drywall and insulation is finished and the air purifiers are running. Every surface in the basement will be cleaned. An electrician will shore up wires and run a dedicated outlet into the basement which will eventually be used to power a commercial dehumidifier. A plumber will assess the waste pipes and make necessary repairs. At least, 2 windows will be replaced. Then encapsulation will take place. All of this needs to be done before restoration can begin. That is another story.
Long Island Lumberjack – The lumberjacks were here doing tree work in the area around Parking Plaza 1.
Hose Bibs – Once the danger of frost has passed (sometime around April 15), please, turn the outdoor water spigot back on if you have the shut-off valve in your unit. If prepared for winter properly, the outdoor spigot should have been left open, don’t forget to close it before you turn the water back on.
Clogged Sewer Line – The newer toilets use less water than the older models. That may save on water, but the drawback is that there is less water to move solid waste down the sewer pipe. This can easily lead to clogs. Moral of the story. Flush a second time to help move solid waste down the pipe.
Reminder, only toilet paper and what nature intends should be flushed away. Wipes, feminine products, diapers, paper towels, dental floss, and tissues will clog out pipes and should be put in the garbage can instead. Cooking fats, meat fat, and grease should never be put down the drain, but instead be thrown out with the garbage.
Lock Up Your Vehicles – Play it safe. Don’t leave valuable items visible inside your vehicle. Remember to close the windows and lock your vehicle when you leave.
Noise – Please, keep in mind that voices, televisions, and music can be heard through some walls. Be sure to keep the volume down and at a reasonable level so that it does not negatively impact your neighbor.
Dumpsters – Keep smells in and critters out. Please keep dumpsters closed. Disposal of large items such as a couch, table, a grill, shelving, a vacuum cleaner and more are to be placed on the side of the dumpster, but not touching the dumpster. Nothing should be leaning against the dumpster, otherwise it will end up under the dumpster when the sanitation worker lifts the dumpster to empty it.
FACP Box – If the FACP (Fire Alarm Control Panel) is beeping there is something wrong. Please, notify the board so the alarm company can be notified.
