Patio and Balcony Decorating Ideas and Policies

Tuesday, May 12th, 2015

Spring is in full swing! And that means spending more and more time outside. Many of our residents with green thumbs have already started planting flowers and decorating their patios for the spring/summer season. And as everyone begins migrating outside this year, we ask that all our residents observe the community policies regarding balconies and patios. Keep reading for policy reminders and also some great decoration ideas to try out at home!

Community Policies

Balconies and patios are considered common areas of the property, and we ask that they be maintained in a manner that is non-offensive and non-hazardous to all other residents. Please follow these community polices to help ensure we all have a safe and happy spring:

– Appropriate patio furniture, plants, flowers and other decorations are acceptable.

– Holiday decorations should be removed in a timely manner.

– Storage of any kind (excluding bicycles), hanging of laundry, and the use or storage of barbecue grills or grilling supplies is prohibited.

– Do not throw cigarette butts from your balcony or patio onto the property and do not put cigarettes out in potted plants. We have complimentary “butt buckets” available in the Rental Office for your convenience. These receptacles ensure the ashes stay enclosed and do not fly out (as with many ash trays).
