Windows in The Hallways

There are windows in the hallways on the 1st and 3rd floors that many people open to let air in the hallway. Please DO NOT open the windows that DON'T HAVE SCREENS. Board members and some residents have been repeatedly closing these windows. Some of your neighbors have reported -- quoting -- "large, slow flying flies that are disgusting and huge. Not sure if they bite but they are the size of a moose fly."

We have lots of birds and rodents that can easily come into the buiding if the windows that lack screens are left open.

Additionally, it has been reported that a resident who got locked out, climbed in through a window near the laundry rooms on the 1st floor. Those screens do provide a certain measure of security, but for safety sake, please avoid opening windows that are accessible from the walkways near the entrances to the building on the 1st floor.

Please use common sense. If you wish to open a window in the hall, make sure it has a screen. And if you see it raining or may rain, please close the window to prevent rain from entering the building.

Moving In or Moving Out?

Please make sure to contact R+E before moving in or out of ITOA. Why? To make things easier for you, R+E can give you permission to use no parking zones, exceed 15 minutes in the short term parking areas at the front of the building and the fire lane.

The reason you need to contact R+E is simple: As rare as it may be very often two people are moving in or out on the same day. If one person has permission to use the fire lane then the other people cannot use it too.

In special cases, it is possible to contact unit owners who have spaces close to the entrance by the laundry room on the first floor and to obtain their permission for you to borrow their spaces for the move. Let R+E coordinate this too.

Under no circumstances is anyone to park in the no parking zones by the dumpster (flats entrance) in the fire lane or in ANY OTHER UNIT OWNER'S SPACE without prior approval from R+E. Doing so will result in fines and or booting of your vehicle.

Single Stream Recycling

Saco has made things easier for us. Cardboard, paper, plastic, cans and glass can all be put in the same bins. Please do not throw cardboard boxes (except pizza boxes) into the dumpster. Make sure to break down your cardboard before recycling.

Thanks,
ITOA
