HIGHLY IMPORTANT CONCERNS FROM THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS:
Please show care and concern about the Fairfax Community, after all this is your home. It would be appreciated if all Unit Owners and or your residents act as a cohesive unit and be considerate of all neighbors. It raises monthly Assessment fees to hire vendors/contractors for damages, repairs and basic maintenance issues caused by unit owners and or their residents. Some of the extra costs and services to maintain the property can be avoided if we work together as a community.

Please step up and help your community’s needs.

RELIABLE VOLUNTEERS NEEDED TO HELP WATER AREAS ON PROPERTY
Please consider volunteering for the Neighborhood Block Watch to help prevent vandalism and crime at our association. If you see suspicious activity, please call the Police at 440-255-1234 and notify the building captain. We need the following volunteer captains:

HELPFUL REMINDERS
FINES –There are many Rules and Regulations being completely ignored. Due to the overwhelming and growing numbers of concerns, violators will be assessed fees for each infraction. If the violators continue not to adhere to the “GOOD NEIGHBOR POLICY” and the Rules and Regulations, further actions will be taken. These concerns are being taken
very serious. Please review your Rulebook. Violators will not be tolerated. Fines will be given.
❖ Please monitor your minors while playing outside and direct them to play in appropriate areas. Playing (of any sort) in parking lots, and carports is not only extremely dangerous but is prohibited.
❖ SLOW DOWN For the safety of all residents/guests, SLOW DOWN and do the speed limit. The speed limit is 10 MPH.
❖ There is a Stop Sign at the exit onto Lucretia Court. Residents/guests must come to a COMPLETE STOP before exiting the property
❖ Pets must be on a hand-held leash at all times when outside of your unit. LOOSE PETS ARE NOT ALLOWED AT ANY TIME! This is for the health and safety of all residents/guests. Immediate and complete clean up after a pet is required. Please be considerate to not allow your pet to tramlple and release pet excretory products onto
others patios and flower bed areas. The unit owner of any resident or guest observed not cleaning up after their pet will be fined up to $50 per violation. Please clean off your pet’s paws before coming in from outside to remove any possible dirt or mud.

❖ LAUNDRY ROOM ETIQUETTE: PLEASE BE MINDFUL and considerate of your fellow neighbors. After each use please be sure to thoroughly clean all areas used, including dryer traps and wiping out the washing machines.

The Association pays for water and heat. Please be mindful of this and fix your faucet or toilet leaks quickly. Also, remember to first adjust the temperature of your thermostat and then turn it down before opening your windows to cool down your unit.

This is a reminder: Rubbish pick up of the dumpsters are Mondays and Thursdays. The timing of the pick up may vary for the balance of the summer due to substitute drivers, vacations, and needed schedule changes. If the holiday falls on a Sunday, the rubbish schedule stays the same, if the holiday falls on a week day, rubbish pick will be the following day.

If you have large items you need to dispose of, please call the Management Office to advise what the item is that requires a special pickup. There may be an extra charge
for these items. Thank you for your understanding and patience.

Please, bag all trash being placed in the dumpsters. Simply dumping your kitchen trash can into the dumpster creates a mess when strong winds blow litter throughout the community. Thank you very much to those residents that are picking up trash. It keeps the fees down. Break down boxes BEFORE placing in dumpster! Keep dumpster lids closed!
