A repair note was submitted over the weekend, and the gates should
be fixed in a day or two.

If you can get a picture/jpg of such things and post them or send them to:
condoboard@1250westvanburen.com
We can look into it. I don't know if other Board members saw it (I missed
it).
There are have some "problem" cars, and some of these cars have been
towed. The guest spots aren't for long-term guest parking with in/out
privileges. The rules are clear, and 1P (and the Board) try to be
cooperative: If a guest is parking for more than 24 hours, they need to
notify 1P or the Board and get permission. Guest spots aren't only
for guests, but also for service people during the day. The Association
(us) has two parking spaces, #s 106 and 107 that we can rent for
long-term guests. I've rented one and found it very useful. And, no
two risks.

We don't have much legal recourse other than to drop a note to the
manager of the building. And, while it's not really our job, maybe we
can start organizing a crew of volunteers for one or two weekends a
month to pick up junk. This is an issue we can raise at the next
Board meeting (Weds, Sept 19 at 7 pm in the storage room).
