Additional Information about Owner Responsibilities:

Overtime, with normal wear and tear, it is expected that major building components will need to be replaced by unit owners (e.g., windows, sliding glass doors, front/rear doors, garage doors, furnaces, air conditioners, hot water tanks, etc.). The Association is responsible for exterior costs such as roofs, gutters, downspouts, but unit owners are responsible for all other costs as listed above. The cost of replacement or repair is part of the price of home ownership.  If you are not sure, please ask.

ALTERATION REQUESTS
