Fire Alarms: Reminder, Homeowners are not permitted to remove or change hard-wired fire alarms. In the event of any issues with a hardwired fire alarm, it is very important before taking any action to contact the Condo Board by email.
Basement: The basement will be open for your convenience on:
Saturday, March 14th from 10:15am – 10:30am.
All items stored in the basement must be in a plastic tote labeled with your name, address, and phone number. Hazardous or combustible items may not be stored. All items stored in the basement are also stored at your own risk.
Rental Units:
Please make sure your Town of Brookhaven rental permits are updated annually. Also, copies of renewed permits and leases should be submitted to the Condo via email or HOA office attention to Condo 3.
Common charges: Please keep in mind that common charges and assessments are due on the 1st of each month. If the HOA office receives your payment on the 11th…. it is not 1 day late; it is 11 days late. You will be charged a late fee. Please don’t wait until the last minute to make your payments.
Dumpsters:
Dumpsters can be used for both trash and recycling. Please break down all boxes before throwing them into the dumpster. If the dumpster is full, please use another one. DO NOT leave anything in front of or leaning against the dumpsters. The carting company will not empty the dumpsters if access is blocked in any way.
Snow Procedures: When you receive a Blast Call, vehicles must be moved immediately so Maintenance can properly clear the parking areas. Our crew works long hours during storms, and they are responsible for the entire community. They cannot keep returning to spots that were not cleared in time. Vehicles that are not moved are subject to stickering and/or towing at the owner’s expense. Please do not report that your parking plaza wasn’t cleaned if your vehicle was not moved. Leftover snow quickly turns to ice and becomes a safety hazard for everyone. If you need assistance, please reach out to a neighbor for help or to the Bretton Woods News for individuals available for private hire. We appreciate your cooperation.
• Walkways are shoveled by our landscapers only when snowfall reaches 2 inches or more, and they will not arrive until after the snow has stopped.
• Please keep a small container of sand or ice melt by your door to treat walkways and areas near your vehicle. Melting snow can refreeze overnight and become slippery, especially in parking areas that cannot be fully plowed when cars are not moved.
• If you see an area covered in ice, after Maintenance has plowed and cleared the lot, please submit a work order so that it can be addressed.
• During snow events, please respond promptly to calls or text alerts requesting that vehicles be moved so the maintenance crew can properly plow the lots.
• Vehicles that are not moved as requested may be subject to being stickered and/or towed.
• Please avoid moving your car into an already cleared location to clean it off, as this prevents the area from remaining fully cleared and makes double work for the Maintenance crew.
• Pick up your outdoor mats, so they will not get caught in the snow blowers, and leave your gate open if you want the path cleared to your door.
• Please check in on your elderly neighbors to see if they need help with anything.
• Upper Lamont Owners – you are responsible for maintenance of your balconies. You must remove snow accumulations from your decks promptly and carefully so there is no damage to the lower unit.
If you live in an upper Lamont, please do not dump the snow onto your neighbor’s walkway when you are clearing your balcony.
