Good question, Rodell. My recollection, like yours, is that "back in
the day," we were required to provide a key. This goes back to about
1999/2000. Donna can correct me, but I don't think 1P now requires keys.
Donna - Does 1P retain individual unit keys?
One problem with keeping keys on-site is that each would have to be
labeled, and even a "secure" lockbox for them all could be subject to
rip-off. The same would be true for at 1P. If anybody obtained access,
it would pose a security risk.
Our next Board meeting will be the first Weds in March, and we'll bring
up the key issue at the meeting.
