Committee Reports
The internet access committee has determined that we will likely not be bringing building-wide internet access to vote this year for budgetary reasons. During the annual homeowners meeting we will provide a brief presentation on the progress so far to provide further information to residents.
The beautification committee is working to continue landscaping projects around the building. The hardscaping project will likely be pushed back by a year due to budgetary concerns.
The elevator facade upgrade survey has completed. We will be posting results and scheduling the upgrades in the near future.
Security
Loitering deterrent strips – E-Rein Construction bids in March chronicle. We have received all the bids required and will continue to consider the matter.
A complaint has been received about loitering on the steps and ramp outside our front entrance. The Board would like to remind residents that the ramp is there to provide handicapped access to both the Ambassador II as well as the on-site business. Please be mindful of this intended use and do not block the ramp.
Rules
A resident who had contacted the Board regarding fines has failed to appear before the Board to discuss the matter. The assessed fines will stand. The same unit has been sent a warning letter regarding their parking.
A unit owner has received second complaint for a dog barking during the day. The Board has asked the complainant to follow up with the unit directly, and we will monitor the situation.
A unit owner has received an additional noise complaint. The Board has received complaints about this unit numerous times in the past and in each case the Board has determined that the sound is not coming from that unit. We will be working with both unit owners to help resolve the issue.
