2 GARAGE Garage Attendant is on duty weekdays from noon until 9:00 P.M. He can assist you with moving groceries or heavy items from the garage to your unit, or from your car parked in front of the building. If needed, he can park your car in the garage if left at the front entrance. He will also wash your car for an $8 fee, or you may use the area to do-it-yourself. Please call him when you need his services: Gary Morrison (216) You should receive a garage door opener(s), mail box keyes, and storage room keys from the previous owner. MAIL AND PACKAGE DELIVERY Be sure your name has been updated inside the mailbox so the carrier will have all the correct information and on the mailroom list above the boxes. Include your suite number on all new address notifications. Delivery services will leave packages in the mailroom and / or call your unit, unless other arrangements have been made. MAINTENANCE CONTRACTORS: Hiring contractors for work in your unit is up to you. Please be sure all contractors have a contract and insurance for your own protection. All cleanup is the unit owners and contractors responsibility. The removal of debris and large items from the building such as furniture you may be replacing is also the responsibility of the owner or contractor. ELEVATOR MAINTENANCE: Both of our elevators are under a yearly contract for monthly inspection and maintenance. This includes electronics and mechanical parts, also includes immediate service when needed. HVAC: April and October are overlap months for both heating and cooling. This is also the optimal time for preventative maintenance on your unit. Some maintenance require draining the water tanks for the building, we try to coordinate the repairs at these times. Contact building superintendent if you have any problems. Please have your Heating and Cooling system seasonally inspected and filter changed to be sure it is in proper working order. The building uses a water system, if an individual unit needs major work it will require a partial building shutdown of the water system. CLEANSING WATER PIPES: Considering this is an older building, one of the problems is rust accumulation in water pipes over the years in lines seldom used. This can be avoided with everyone s help. If you have a bathroom tub, sink, or utility room sink that you seldom use, Please Run Water at least once a month. In that way accumulated rust is removed from the pipeline. TRASH: Trash is picked up twice daily and once on weekends. Please remember that our trash receptors are for garbage and papers. Any additional trash left as bulk and needing an additional pickup, will be charged to the owner. BE A GOOD NEIGHBOR: Please clean the lint filter in dryers before and after use to prolong dryer life. Remove clothes in a timely manner. There are clothes racks for use in the laundry room. Return the shared shopping carts to the garage or storage area immediately after use. Page 2

3 MOVING MOVING DAY: When your moving date is set, please notify the Superintendent so elevators can be blanketed.

After unpacking, break down all boxes and place them in a garage trash container for easy disposal.

READ THIS! IT MAY SAVE YOUR LIFE. FIRE IN A HIGH RISE APARTMENT THE FOUR MOST VITAL POINTS ARE: 1. CALL THE FIRE DEPARTMENT: Pull Interior Alarm to notify other residents, located on each floor near the exit doors. 3. Leave building if it is safe to do so. 4. Use exit stairways - NOT the elevators! DO NOT PANIC! IF YOU CANNOT LEAVE YOUR APARTMENT OR THE BUILDING: 1. Place your palm on the door, and if it feels hot, don t open it. 2. If the hallway is too smoky, return to your home. 3. Place wet towels across the cracks under the doors. 4. If there is smoke, open a window and lie down on the floor. OTHER VITAL INFORMATION: Your building has built-in fire resistance features which minimize the spread of flames, especially from floor to floor. Elevators are risky during a fire because smoke and heat interfere with the control switches and electric eye of the door. The Stairways are built for safe exit during a fire. Fire fighters will use them too. Be sure to close the doors.
