Lucky you caught this, Jim. And kudos for taking action! I assume the
offender will be individually responsible for any damages(?).
Just curious - do we have video recording available with the security cams?
If not, would it be worthwhile looking into such a system and evaluate
whether the cost of the system would offset the costs incurred to the
association from damages of this nature that are perpetrated by specific
individuals? Just looking for ways to deter these unscrupulous activities
and lower association costs on the whole...
Chime in with your thoughts....
