Dear Residents,

Reminder:  No smoking on HOA property.  A number of residents have been sitting on HOA property NEAR THE SIDEWALK.  We understand your preference to sit.  However, in every such location, smoke finds its way into a garage, stairwell, or the Pool area.  This is a problem for the non-smokers who are in those areas and the City of Oakland recently passed an Ordinance disallowing smoking anywhere on the grounds of a multi-family residence.  To comply with Oakland’s law and with our Rules, smokers must be completely off of our property.

The County of Alameda requires that the blue cover for the Jacuzzi (Spa) MUST BE OFF OF THE SPA DURING ALL OPERATING HOURS.  We know our Rule has been to place the cover back on the Spa when each resident leaves.  However, this County law must be followed.  Please remember this.  

The Manager will be on vacation the week of August 11-15.  The Office phone will be forwarded to a Staff Member or Board Member during normal working hours.  If you have a MAINTENANCE EMERGENCY, PLEASE CALL THE MAINTENANCE EMERGENCY PHONE #510-908-3218.  This number is stated on the Office’s outgoing message.

Our Custodial Staff Member will be on vacation August 11-15.

Sincerely, Manager
