You cannot dump your Christmas trees in the dumpster or leave them near the dumpster. The town will accept them for FREE at the transfer station. Where is the transfer station, you ask?
Make a left onto Main street when leaving Island Terrace. Make a left onto Rt 112 (Buxton Road) and head over the Turnpike. Its the third left after the school (Foss Rd) and you can't miss it. You may need a transfer station pass, if you don't have one, you can get one at city hall.

Parking Map and Policy Now Online
The website has been updated to include more details regarding the parking policies at ITOA. A map of the building with the spots highlighted should help clarify things a bit. Please remember that the 15 minute spots at the front of the building are provided as a convenience for people being picked up or dropped off or loading and unloading things from their cars. Be courteous to your neighbors and share the spaces fairly. Also, under no circumstances is an unattended vehicle to be parked in the fire lane. This is a public safety issue. Don't park there to get your mail or unload groceries, use a 15 minute spot.
If you are moving in or out, please contact R+E for extended parking in the front of the building.

Shovels
Shovels have been left in the fire escapes and in the main lobby to assist you in digging your car out. On Sunday, it was a great sight to see neighbors helping neighbors dig out too! Please make sure to put the shovels back inside where you found them when you are finished.
A few notes about parking.
With snow on the ground obscuring the lines and numbers that are painted on the blacktop, some people have been pulling into the wrong spots. Please try to use a landmark when pulling into your spot to align yourself properly. If you want to report a car just e-mail Parking@islandterrace.info or call R+E. We will do our best to assist you.
Also remember that under no circumstances may you leave your car unattended in the fire lane. Over the past few days several people have done this, and while it may seem that its just a moment to run into the house or to grab your mail, you are putting public safety at risk. Additionally, you cannot park in the traffic lane. It may seem like common sense, but there has already been an incident where someone parked in front of the building there and blocked a car in its spot and acted as a bottleneck between the parking area by the flats and the rest of the parking area.
And one last note, please make sure that you are familiar with and that your guests are familiar with the parking lot. A map will be printed and posted in lobby to help people. Last night two visitors parked in assigned spots. Had the owners of these units requested, these vehicles would have been towed.

Important Info Regarding Snow Removal
We got feedback from Saco Island LP and need to make a few adjustments on our part to aid in the removal of snow from our parking lot. Also, anyone wishing to park at the top of the hill must register their vehicle with ITOA so we can provide a parking pass and your contact information to Saco Island LP. The lot at the top of the hill is not our property, nor is it public land. This parcel of real estate is owned by Saco Island LP and we park their at their leisure.
To obtain a parking permit please send the follwing info to Parking@Islandterrace.info:
Your Name:
Vehicle Make and Model:
Vehicle License Plate:
Unit Number:
Phone Number:
Method of distribution: (Would you like us to slide it under your door, would you like to arrange pick-up of the pass or would you like it mailed to you?)
The plow drivers report(Quoting from their e-mail):
First, ITA residents were not out of the lot until 10:45. This delayed clean up until after twelve noon. Folks cannot come down to move their cars at 10:00 a.m. and spend a half an hour cleaning their car off and then move it. The cars have to be out by 10:00 at the latest.
Second, cars were left in the upper parking lot. The more cars that remain in that lot, the less snow will be removed. We are avoiding towing, but there’s a limit. We will soon post a sign on that lot that will indicate that parking there is by permit only. Residents who utilize this lot must have an ITA parking sticker on their car to serve as a permit.
Third, the gate to the ITA lot needs to be kept in an open position during snow removal. (Not something residents have to worry about)
Fourth, parking in front of 110 Main Street during the parking ban is not an exercisable option. That lot must be kept clear to allow the trucks to move in and out. I’ve given permission for four people to park there during snow storms because of the impact of center lane plowing during storms. When the snow ban is in effect, they must also move their cars. (These four residents must have an ITA sticker on their window. ) Once the storm is over and the lot is clear, these folks need to use their assigned space so we can clear the front lot.
