Few things to touch on...
Front Step Repair
- We hoped to get the stairs complete prior to Winter. As you can see, they are not done. Sounds like temperatures are going to warm up next week (fingers crossed), if they do, we are going to really push to finish pouring the new cement to remove the tripping hazard due to the lip between the new/old concrete.
- The project includes applying a traffic deck coating finish to waterproof and non-slip the surface. We are trying our best to get as much done as possible. We are also going to talk to he contractor about the fact they committed to having it complete before winter, hoping to work something out with the final invoice.
Snow Removal
- The first winter snowfall brought freezing rain, which created very slippery conditions near and around our building. I want to thank everyone who pitched in to help out with the car accident bordering Edmonton Trail on Sunday. I do believe our efforts contributed to minimizing the severity of the situation.
- We do expect the snow removal contractor to remove the ice. We are never satisfied with simply clearing the snow on top of the ice. Our concerns have been submitted. It is important we are clear on our expectations and manage to them as the winter progresses. Please be careful when you are walking outside the building, we are doing what we can and will continue to work with the contractor.
Hot Water Heating System
- Although rare (some even say it's a myth) we don't want to risk freezing the pipes, it will lead to a costly fix for all owners. Winter can get a little stuffy but please remember to keep your doors and windows closed when it is cold outside.
Updates to the Blog will be made as we learn more, please check back often or set up a notification. We won't always post a notice in the building when we quick posts.
Thank you,
Remembering our fallen heroes today....
