FYI... Julio is cleaning the entire service drive area with the power washer. If anyone sees pet owners curbing their dog inside the gated area, please send a private email to the condo board. We will handle the matter directly with the pet owner.

Thanks,
Chris

This has always been a difficult issue. The dog rules are clear, and
most people are pretty good about following them. It's not an easy
thing to deal with, though:

--Dogs tend to have a mind of their own and do what they do, and if
they start doing their thing by the rear doors or in the alley or by
the gates, they can't be shut off like a light switch.

--If "accidents" happen inside the building, all the owners need to
do is go back and clean it up with a sponge and some bleach. Matter
settled. If an accident happens and it's not cleaned up, then the
owner is subject to a $50 for the first offense, $100 for subsequent
offenses. So, just clean up!

--If they do it outside by the back door, and if it becomes a pattern,
the own is responsible for better training of the dog.

--The rear area by the gate is supposed to be power-washed once
every week or two, because we recognize that accidents happen. We will
work with Julio to make sure this is done as instructed.

This might not be a perfect solution, but it's the best we can come up
with to balance the needs of dog owners (and dog lovers) with the need
to have urine-free living accomodations.

And, although it hasn't happened recently, same goes for bipeds as well.
