Happy New Year to Everyone!
First, we’d like to apologize to all who ordered peepholes for their doors. We expected to have them done before Christmas but taking care of snow removal has been a priority and dominating Ted’s time.
We truly appreciate everyone’s patience during this snowy time. We know it’s been inconvenient at times, but please be assured we are doing our best to keep Parkside a safe and comfortable place for you to live.
Anyway, we will be giving you notice when maintenance can schedule installation of the peepholes. In the meantime, we have not cashed any checks written for the peepholes, so we apologize if this causes any inconvenience in your bank account reconciliation.
ANOTHER reminder to pet owners: Your pet is YOUR responsibility. We are getting specific complaints and we will be monitoring the problems. For example, if your neighbor clears a spot for their pet, that does not mean your pet can use that spot to relieve themselves. Every pet owner is responsible for cleaning up after his or her pet. Snow or not. Period. Period. Period. If this continues to be an ongoing problem we will address it on a case-by-case basis… and it may become necessary to revoke permission for some residents to have pets. I hope it doesn’t come to that, as I know it would be extremely unpopular. We want to be a pet friendly environment but our resident’s comfort and convenience is our priority.
Parking, parking, parking. Will I ever stop harping on this? I hope so. Again, I remind everyone to please respect assigned parking spaces. The snow creates special challenges and extra effort, but snow on the ground is NOT a license to ignore the assigned spaces. All tenants know where their assigned spaces are and we expect you to continue to use them (and advise your guests). Recently someone parked in my neighbors spot. Therefore, the neighbor parked in my spot. So where was I supposed to park? In someone else’s spot? Do you see how this is a domino effect problem? This makes me crabby and I suspect it has the same effect on other residents when it happens to them.
It is NOT ok to park in front of building entries. This is a liability issue and we need to keep these areas cleared. Also, do NOT park for more than a few minutes at the end of the carports. This interferes with the snowplow (and general traffic all year) and puts those cars at risk to be damaged.
Do not park near where snow is being piled. We need those areas for a place to put snow and would not want your car to be plowed in or for the snow blowers to cover your car with snow. We have a few (very few) chronic parking offenders and I would hate to get to the point that having cars towed is the only way to get my message heard. But, I will start having cars towed if that’s what it takes. So, consider this a friendly warning.
One other maintenance issue we hope to complete soon is replacement of all the burned out exterior bulbs. It’s a dangerous time of year to be crawling up on a ladder but maintenance will get them replaced as soon as possible.
Also, if any of you notice your toilet taking an extra long time to fill or is running more than normal, please let us know. We will have maintenance come in and make an adjustment. This will save water.
On another subject, many of you had term leases that expired under the prior management company. This means you are now on a month-to-month lease with Willinger Real Estate. If you would like to lock in your rent rate for the next 6 – 12 months, please contact me so we can authorize a new lease for you. Our rent rates ARE on the low side and we do anticipate some increases in the near future. If you do not contact me to negotiate a new lease, you will be subject to potential rent increases (with notification).
Aso, for the most part we are getting rent payments in a very timely manner. However, please remember rents are DUE on the 1st of each month and PAST DUE on the 5th. You will be subject to late fees if you cannot pay by the due date.We enjoy being your property managers and appreciate the cooperative spirit throughout the complex.
Again… Happy New Year!
