OWNER ADVISORIES

RESPONSIBILITIES

The boundaries of a Unit are specifically defined with our Condominium Documents and the division of responsibilities that fall on the Association and on Owners are equally well defined. These responsibilities must be recognised by all parties and in respect of the Association they are catered for by either our Buildings Insurance Policy or from the general operating budget as befits any given problem.

The Owner on the other hand is responsible for identifying the risks associated with their property and the consequential damage to other properties caused by their negligence or problems emanating from their Unit relative to all equipment and use of the Unit.

Florida Statute requires that every Owner identifies and takes out insurance to mitigate their financial exposure to such risks and in the case of rented properties the insurance should specifically cover renting. If an Owner elects not to provide themselves with the appropriate insurance cover they will remain solely responsible not only for repairs and renewals within their own units but also consequential damages caused to other units.




#1 We recommend that at all times when not using the washing machine or leaving your property unoccupied that you turn the Hot and Cold taps at the Washer bib to OFF to prevent flooding in the event of a hose bursting

xxxxx

#2 Each Bay Pointe unit has a fire extinguisher, normally located within the laundry area. These extinguishers are the property of the Unit Owner and it is a Statutory requirement that these extinguishers are subjected to inspection and certification.

xxxxx

#3 Several unoccupied Units have their smoke alarms 'pinging' on low battery alert. This is causing a problem to adjacent occupied units and batteries need replacing .

Regular checks should be made of your smoke alarms, this is done simply by pressing the test button on the smoke alarm unit

xxxxx

#4 Owners are reminded that they are and remain responsible for any unpaid water and sewage charges on their Units should their tenants fail to pay same under the lease agreement.
The lease remains a 'contract' between the Owner and the Tenant and the Association is not liable in any way for a breach of the contract, eg. failure to pay for utilities by the tenant.

xxxxx

#5 It is a requirement of Florida Statute 718 that all Owners provide a key for their Unit to the Association for use in emergencies.

In the event the Association does not have a key properties can, if required, will be forcibly entered and replacement locks fitted, all costs to the Owners account.

xxxxx

#6 It is worthy of note that there are certain things you can do to ensure your aircon is working correctly and efficently.

*Improve the efficency of your aircon, reduce operating cost and minimise fire hazards by regularly replacing the filter, ideally every three months or less

* Owners should also ensure that the drain lines from the air conditioner 'drip trays' are connected and clear to ensure proper draining of condensation from the air handling unit.(The drip tray has a cut off switch and if water accumulates it will/should isolate your aircon unit)

*A suggestion is to pour a cupfull of white vinegar or bleach down the aircon drain every three or four months.

This is most important in second floor units as you are responsible for any damage to the units below you if your drains do not function correctly.

xxxxx

#7 If you are experiencing condensation problems in your utitity area when using the dryer or finding that drying times are extending you may have a blocked roof vent.

The Association is aware of a potential problem, which is the blocking of the outlet to the vent. The vent is the ‘gooseneck’ vent on the roof and this has a ‘bird grill’ fitted to stop birds entering your duct system but we have found that on four properties to date this vent can plug up with fluff from the dryer, giving you drying and condensation problems as well the potential for an increased fire risk.

TENANCY APPLICATIONS

Effective 1st May 2008 all tenancy leases will require to have the Association Lease Addendum signed and attached as part of same. This addendum serves to provide protection of assessment fees due the Association where a landlord/owner is receiving rental income but is not paying the assessment fees etc. due on the property.

The Rules and Regulations were revised, 1 May 2008, to reflect this requirement.

MAINTENANCE REQUESTS

Maintenance requests should be submitted in writing and placed in the MAINTENANCE REQUEST BOX which can be found at the entrance to the Community Building

POOL RESTROOMS - You must have your key to use the Restrooms‏

The Board and Community Management have become aware of some recent problems regarding the access to Pool Restrooms and apologizes for any inconvenience this may have caused.

The doors serving the Restrooms are provided with two locks on each door. One lock is a master deadbolt that only the Association Staff have a key for, the other lock is the one that allows general but controlled access to the Restrooms.

The following procedure is followed

Daily at circa 9-00am the Deadbolt will be undone the Restrooms cleaned and placed into use for the day providing you have your key with you for the second lock (All Owners were provided with two keys initially).

Each evening at around 7-00pm the Deadbolt will be locked to provide additional overnight security to the Restrooms and the Community Building as a whole.

On Saturday’s the Restroom Deadbolt will be unlocked as normal at 9-00am but will remain unlocked until Sunday at 7pm

The Deadbolts on the doors leading from the Restrooms into the Community Building will remain locked at all times unless the Community Room is being used.

If you use the Restrooms always ensure on leaving that you close and lock the door so that only Owners/Residents with keys have access. Do not loan your key to anyone.

It is essential this procedure is followed to ensure that you have clean and undamaged Restrooms for your continued use.
