TENANT TIPS |
|
Grilles:
Be sure that all grilles are clean and covered when you are finished
using them. Be sure that coals are cold and doused with water before
you place them in the dumpsters or garbage cans.
Snow Removal:
Please exercise caution when walking on the sidewalks or driving
in the parking lots during a storm while our crews are attempting
to clear the snow. Stay clear of all snow removal equipment while
in operation by our staff or contractors. Move your car to facilitate
parking lot snow plowing if possible. Be patient leaving your apartment
in a bad storm as the roads will be dangerous and therefore you
should stay indoors if possible.
Garbage:
Please use the common trash containers near your building or the
can designated for your apartment (if applicable). Put all garbage
in tied plastic bags before placing in the receptacles.
Parking:
Please park only in designated spaces. Hatched areas are for special
access or emergency vehicle use only. Cars parked illegally will
be towed away without notice at the vehicle owners sole cost and
expense.
Storage Rooms:
Please place storage items in the area designated for your apartment.
Dangerous items will be removed without notice (tires, mattresses,
flammables, etc.) THE USE OF THE STORAGE ROOMS ARE AT THE TENANTS
SOLE RISK. WE CANNOT BE RESPONSIBLE FOR LOST OR STOLEN ITEMS.
Door locks:
If you choose to change your door cylinder we must be given a copy
of the new key at once. All keys are kept secure and will not be
given to anyone other than our staff to effect repairs in your apartment
at your request or in the case of emergency.

PLEASE
BE CONCERNED ABOUT YOUR SAFETY AND THE SAFETY OF YOUR NEIGHBORS BY
REMEMBERING THE FOLLOWING FIRE AWARENESS TIPS:
- Don’t leave pots unattended on the
stove and be sure to shut off the gas when you are finished cooking.
- Defective hair dryers, curling irons, toasters
and frayed wires are a major source of danger. Inspect these items
regularly.
- Too many lighting fixtures or appliances
running off of one outlet can cause a short circuit. Please use
UL rated multi-receptacle strips with a circuit breaker built in.
- Do not store any tires, flammable liquids
or rags in the storage room. Dangerous items will be removed without
further notice.
- DO NOT SMOKE IN BED!
- Each tenant is responsible for keeping
fresh batteries in the smoke detectors. A chirping sound means that
the battery needs replacement. Test your unit once a month.
- Christmas tree lighting can cause fire.
Do not allow live Xmas trees to dry out. Discard them in the dumpsters
as soon after the holidays as possible.
- Monitor the use of holiday candles carefully.
Never leave your apartment with candles still burning.
- We strongly suggest that you purchase
renters insurance. This type of coverage protects your valuables
against loss and gives you certain liability coverage. This type
of insurance is available from most companies and is relatively
low in cost.

APARTMENT
LOCK OUT POLICY
Prevent lockouts in order to avoid being charged for re-entry fees.
HINT: Try to leave a key with a neighbor. Push the mortise
lock button on the side of the door if you are leaving the apartment
for just a few minutes. Keep a spare key in your wallet or pocketbook.
If you do get locked out you may take one of the following steps:
1. On Monday-Friday (excluding holidays) from 9:30am
to 4:00pm you may come to the main office for help or find the superintendent
on the premises. There is no fee for this service. We cannot guarantee
that the office will always be open during these hours. YOU MUST
PROVIDE US WITH PROOF OF IDENTITY IF YOU ARE NOT KNOWN TO US!
2. After these hours, but prior to 9pm, you may
call the emergency phone number, 516-773-9019, and
a staff member, if available, will be contacted to meet you to gain
access. YOU MUST LEAVE A CALLBACK NUMBER (for your
cell phone, neighbor, etc.) so that the staff member can speak to
you prior to opening your door. There will be a fee payable directly
to the staff member for this service. Make sure you discuss this
fee prior to asking for someone to come to the apartment. If you
cannot wait for this service or if there is no one available (and
after 9pm) you always have the option of calling a locksmith.
This option will be at your sole cost and expense.
3. The Rental Agent is not permitted by Management
to unlock any door at any time. Please do not contact her or go
to her apartment regarding locked doors as she cannot and will not
be able to help you.
Thank you for your cooperation.
