If anyone has taken the time to watch the trash pickup, it's evident that
the individual driving the truck and picking up the trash is not concerned
about the small pieces of loose debris that fall on the service drive. In
all honestly, I have never seen anyone driving a trash truck take the time
to "sweep" up loose debris that may or may not fall off the truck. The
waste management service is paid to haul away the trash, and most likely
that is all they will ever do.
Julio should be cleaning up the service drive if there is a mess left over
after a trash pickup. But the major issue that I see is a scheduling
conflict. Julio is on site in the morning hours. The trash pickup
usually occurs in the afternoon or evening hours... sometimes as late as
7pm. Any loose debris that falls off the truck will sit in the service
drive until the next morning.
I applaud Dom's efforts in trying to keep the service drive clean. If we
could only get more residents to volunteer and help out around the
building (a.k.a. "our home"). Dom, I extend a personal thank you for all
your hard work. You do a great service to all the residents and pets in
the building.
The Board will make sure that First Properties is instructed to issue work
orders to Julio about cleaning the service drive. Please keep in mind,
Julio has a set schedule. He is on site every morning. The trash truck
comes whenever it shows up, and the person dumping and hauling the trash
will most likely never sweep the service drive.
Brooms dust pans, and trash tongs are available to all residents willing
to volunteer help keep the service drive clean. All tools are stored
under the steps in the parking garage. If there is need for additional
tools, please let the Board know ASAP. I will make sure the necessary
tools are obtained immediately.
FYI... we have recently installed a new key switch on the electric slide
gate onto Gladys so all residents have a second option for exiting the
gated area behind the building. The key switch works on the common area
key just like the key switch on the electric swing gate for the service
drive off Throop.
In regards to pets "doing their business" inside the gated area, this is a
violation of the Vanguard Lofts rules and regulations. The new security
cameras that monitor the service drive should be installed soon and we
will rectify this problem.
Best regards,
- Chris

Dom - Thank you for cleaning up the left over garbage in the drive way.
You probably saved a couple of car tires from broken glass. Jay, I think
we should politely ask our garbage man to sweep the remains off to the
side...it's their responsibility.
Best,
Dana Parker #514
