It is unfortunate that the north driveway rather than the south driveway, is being used as a staging area to facilitate construction of the unapproved and “newly designed” frontage area of the property. The south side driveway was in full use shortly after pouring of the surface. Why was the south driveway not used as a staging area where commerical access is only necessary during the day while residential access is required 24/7/365.

Residents are forced to put up without use of the north driveway, as long as construction is in progress. The inconvenience to residents extends to visitors, health care providers, etc.who require access 24 hours a day.

Further, it is interesting that residents succumbed to the wishes of a few, to spend thousands of dollars “fobbing” doors in the amenities area simply because of one uncorroborated report of “kids” in this area and “liability” issues. Yet, no one has expressed any concern at all, over the wide open access to anyone off the street, that can simply enter the south entrance, get on the residential elevator, and reach any floor they wish.

Residents require access to the building 24/7/365. Unfortunately, they have and will continue to share access with strangers off the street over the entire day. Commercial tenants on the other hand, have unfettered access to the property including parking for their visitors.

It is unfortunate and certainly disrespectful of residents, that the Board has restricted the very irritating racket of concrete drilling to early (7 AM) morning hours, during the noon hour, and after 5 PM in order to, as residents have been advised, “to not make noise at the commercial time”.

It appears that once again, our residential Board representation, has simply bowed to the interests of the commercial owner, and is prepared to simply permit insecurity and inconvenience to their fellow residents.
