Market rent members needing help with rent?

Please see below how you can get help with rent (housing charges) if you are a member (tenant) who pays full market rent.

The Housing Stability Team launched an online application tool in June 2023 for individuals/families and community partners/advocates to apply for Housing Stability Funds.

This tool is a user-friendly way for applicants to enter their demographic information, reason for request, and upload any supporting documentation to accompany their request. Applicants who have already utilized the form have provided positive feedback regarding the process.

caution tape on big electrical box by unit 26

Please note that I had Richard put a bunch of caution tape all around that big electrical box over by unit 26. The kids have been playing and sitting on it, which is so unsafe.

Please tell your kids not to sit on any electrical boxes in the complex. That is straight electricity in there.

Thanks

Lawns not mowed

Several members have not mowed their front or back yards.

Be advised that if your lawns are not mowed by Monday, July 31, 2023, we will give notice of entry and your lawns will be mowed by the grounds company. This cost will be 40.00 for the front yard, and 40.00 for the back yard. You will receive a bill for this.

With rodents running around, we need the lawns to be mowed and kept tidy so no rodents can nest. I am aware of some serious overgrown lawns. If a lawn is seriously overgrown and it takes longer for the grounds people to cut it down, that cost will be higher then $40.00 per lawn

You can get the key for the shed from unit 4. Please ensure the lawn mower has gas in it, when you return it to the shed, as a courtesy for the next person who will use it. I expect it to be a busy weekend for the lawn mower and weed trimmer, so return these as soon as you are done with them.

Please get this done over the weekend, to avoid being charged for someone else to do it.

Thanks very much.
