Summer Update

It's summer time in beautiful Crescent Heights!  Hope everyone is enjoying the warmer weather.  Few things to let you know about but generally there is not a lot to report.

1.      IMPORTANT - Annual Fire Inspection - July 25, 2012 - It is crucial ever unit comply, this inspection will not be complete until every unit is inspected.  Notices will be posted around the building and you will receive a note in the mail with instruction on where to drop off a key if you will not be home.  Please help make this a painless as possible for the board and make the appropriate arrangements. 
2.      We would still like to have one or two more board members.  We are running a moderate risk having so few people on the board, one person leaving leaves a significant gap.  Please let us know.  It is an hour or two of your time a month and you would be helping out alot!
3.      Eruption Plates - the only outstanding work is some stucco and the contractor will schedule it now, they were waiting for the rain to stop.
4.      Carpet Replacement -  the board has been discussing replacing the carpet in the building (we are well aware it could use it:).  Couple different things going on here, first there is some work on a water line on the first floor so we wouldn't do anything on that floor till this is fix.  It is also very expensive and a reserve fund line item.  The last reserve fund study schedule replacement for 2015.  This is still on the table but we didn't budget for it and it would come out of the reserve fund, we want to make sure we are doing to right thing and we haven't made a decision yet.  We are however talking about getting the cleaners; the carpet can sure use it!
5.      AGM Meeting - August 14th, 2012 and Connolly & Company - you will receive the official notice in the mail complete with instructions for what you do if you can't make it.
Other than that there is no too much to report, people are out on their decks more so please make sure you are being respectful and kind to your neighbors!  Enjoy your summer, see you at the AGM!
