Maintenance Tips     Page 2 Apartment Entrances Remember to change your AC filter at least once a month. You can request one in the office of put a work order for it to be replaced.  Just a reminder that the Valet trash service does not pick up large items such as, furniture, big boxes, or glass. These items must be taken to the dumpster located at the entrance of the property. Also, be sure to always bag your trash inside the valet bin and not have loose items. If you have pets and have placed a work order, please be sure to cage your animals so that maintenance can work in your apartment. If there is a leak, maintenance will come and repair the leak. The water on the floor however is not their responsibility. Maintenance will not work in your apartment if there is a minor by themselves. We will reschedule when there is an adult present. “If your AC is frozen, turn the unit off, and put the fan ‘On’ instead of Auto. This will allow the ice to melt faster, and maintenance can work on it once the ice melts”  The breezeways are not just hallways, they are the entry of everyone’s homes. Lets remember this when leaving cigarette butts on the floor or other trash. If we all work together we will keep the property looking fresh and clean always and a place we are proud of.

Dracula had an insatiable thirst, and so will your friends when they see this cool cocktail. To make it you’ll need: 1oz mango vodka, 1oz coconut rum, 1oz sweet and sour mix, a splash of grenadine and an ice. Pour all together and mix. To make the dripping blood your need corn syrup and red food coloring. Stir together in bowl, then dip the glass into the syrup and let it drip. Place the glass in a freezer for a few minutes to help solidify the drips. TRICK OR TREAT??? We will be creating door flyers to tape on your door on the night of Halloween, telling kids to either knock for candy or move to the next door. This will be an easy way to avoid disturbance to residents who would not like to participate in the candy giving. Be sure to come by the office the week of Halloween and pick up your: ‘Trick or Treaters Welcome” OR “Sorry no Trick or Treaters” *Parents: please make your child aware of these signs and how to follow them.
