Brrr...

Has anyone noticed how chilly it is in the gym? I turned the heat up to 8o and by the next morning it was no warmer.... The only heating in this room is a small base heater which doesn't seem to work too well. It is so cold that you can see your breath. If I wanted to run outside.... I would. I doubt anything would even be done about this problem. Thoughts?

Creaking Floors?

Hi Folks,
Creaking floors seem to be a particular issue in 10855. Living on the top floor makes this issue tolerable for me, but I know it must be a major burden for #201. (Sorry guys) I raised this issue when I closed but was told that there was a certain allowable tolerance of creaking and all units were within that tolerance.
Have any other buildings experienced this and was it addressed with a satisfactory result. I realize that it involves clearing out bedrooms and pulling up carpet which seems like a major PITA but I might be willing to have this happen if they could guarantee their work. I really regret not making this a conditional issue on closing. And now the problem seems to be worse since I've moved in my furniture. Do you think this is a warranty issue that should be pursued?

Hey everyone,

I created a facebook group as another way of capturing ideas, opinions and just for fun stuff about our community. You will need a facebook account if you don't have one which is quite easy.

The First Meeting Non-meeting

The first association meeting just wrapped up but it was pointless for anyone but people who wanted to be on the board.  The little bit that wasn't revealed until midway through the meeting was the builder held 26 votes out of the 39 possible resident votes.  Only 17 residents votes were at the meeting so basically the builder did what he wanted.

This meant a 3 person board although this happened to follow popular vote we believe.  The only cool thing was he put 2 residents on the board out of the 3 possible with one being filled by the developer association.  Don't quote me on all the actual developer/builder stuff.  The gist is we have a majority on the board so that's good.  He just got to pick them but he based it on the statements made at the meeting.

Overall, a waste of time again unless you wanted to be on the board.  As for the board members, Marc Ramsey and Brittaney King from the resident community.  They both agree that trash/recycling is an issue so I'm guessing they will attempt to address this.

Just my 2 cents,

Fire Alarm Mystery

Hi everyone:

Hope you had a good break over the holidays. I have been meaning to ask you if you can help me identify the handle on the fire alarm outside my unit in 10851. Based on what I see the handle is not installed. However, Josh tells me that handle is there and I don't know how to use it. Please help me out and tell me where the handle is. Picture is attached.

Thanks,

Anisa
