Maintenance and Cleanliness Obligations for Common Areas & Exclusive Use Common Areas
Posted By mcooper on August 19, 2025

We’d like to remind everyone of their obligations to keep common areas clean and attractive including the hallways, alcoves, and exclusive use patios and balconies.
Cleaning up after ourselves and maintaining these areas is not only a matter of respect for our community but is also crucial in preventing pests and maintaining our property values. Furthermore, the CC&Rs and Project Handbook outline that the city requires these areas to be kept in a clean, safe, and attractive condition, free of all debris. Unit alcoves should be cleaned by the residents and are not an appropriate location for overnight trash storage. Balconies and patios are also the responsibility of each homeowner to maintain in a way that preserves the attractiveness and value of the property. Similarly, parking spaces should be free of storage items and vehicle leaks.
Please keep in mind that if the association has to step in to fulfill a homeowner’s maintenance obligations, the homeowner can be assessed for the costs.
Let’s strive to uphold these standards and make our community a clean, safe, and enjoyable place to live. Thank you for your cooperation!
