Common Entrances & Hallways


Downstairs Hallway - Building 7

By-law 62.32 states:

Not place or keep any dustbin or other container for refuse or rubbish outside the Strata Lot or not store any items in the common entrance area of each building.

On 20 November, the SEC carried out a survey of items being stored in the entrances and downstairs and upstairs hallways of the buildings. To download a copy of the results of the survey please follow this link:

Bicycles chained to the staircase have caused damage to the paintwork. Other items such as tables, coolers, and BBQ equipment have marked the walls.

As a courtesy to your neighbors, and in an effort to enhance the overall appearance of the common entranceways and upstairs and downstairs hallways, the SEC requests that residents remove all personal items from these areas by 15 December.

Congratulations to the residents of Building 7 (photo above), the perfect examples of courteous neighbours! If you want to know how the entrances and hallways should look after 15 December, visit Building 7. If they can adhere to by-law 62.32, so can we all. Thank you for keeping Caribbean Courts Condominiums a tidy place to live.

Would it be possible to install some bike racks outside?

Ray Anthony - Secretary, Strata Executive Committee said...

When the SEC discussed simple bike racks in the past, we concluded they lacked security and weather protection (we have had a couple of bikes go missing over the last few years). I believe the strata would be open to the idea of bike storage units between the buildings, but the question is: would bike owners pay for an external storage solution -- i.e., would they pay a small fee to rent a proper bike shed? I invite comments from other bike owners on this issue.

Jasper,

At a meeting this evening, the SEC resolved to investigate moving the metal shed between buildings 6 & 7 to between buildings 7 & 8 and making it a lockable bike shed. I'll keep you posted on how these plans move forward.

Thanks for the update. I understand there are financial considerations related to any changes to the status quo. Using the space between buildings seems like a good starting point.
