At the 2012 Annual Meeting which took place on April 24, 2012, copies of the end of year (EOY) 2011-12 financials as well as the 2012-13 approved budget were distributed to the attendees. We have enclosed copies of these reports within this mailing for your review and file.

Further, please be advised that beginning on Monday, May 14th and for the entire week beginning everyday at 7:00am, we will be performing asphalt maintenance. The asphalt maintenance project will begin directly after unit 25 garage door and around the corner to the side of unit 31 garage door. It will incorporate excavating the entire paved area within this specified area including the walkways (units 21-32 will be most affected) to the units but not the landing or concrete steps. Beginning on Monday the project will commence by excavating the roadway and walkways, followed by placing the base course down, the binder course, and lastly the top coat which is planned to occur on Thursday (weather permitting). On Friday, May 18th we will have the parking lines re-striped in the same manner and consistency they are now. The line striping paint will dry within a few hours so you will be able to park in your assigned spaces by mid-afternoon on Friday, May 18th.

During the construction period there will be limited to no access to these areas during the daytime. You will have access to your units but there will be limited to no vehicular traffic during the day when the project is going on. All vehicles must be removed from the parking areas no later than 7:00am each day during construction but can return to its assigned parking areas after 5pm each day. However, during the day we will be monitoring any traffic and limiting access to this work area. Please be patient and cautious when entering and exiting this area during this time period while we are making these repairs.

We apologize for this inconvenience but these repairs are necessary and as part of our ongoing commitment to our capital project plan and to improve the parking facility and roadway at The Garrison.

If there are any questions regarding the paving project, please feel free to call the Management Office at 603.868.1262. Thank you!

On Saturday, May 5, 2012 at The Garrison Condominiums, Ron Potter Gutter Cleaning
will be onsite all day to perform gutter cleaning services on units 1-44. They will be
focusing their time on the backside gutters due to the proximity to the tree line but they
will also perform work on the front corners where pine needles and leaves tend to collect.

Gutter Cleaning Services will begin around 8:00am that day so please make note of it in
your calendars!

We kindly request that you please not make any special requests to the technicians for
your gutters while they are onsite as it will cause the overall services to be delayed and
increase the cost of the work. If you have specific questions and/or requests, please email
them to the Property Manager at steve@maguiremanagement.com or call the office at
603.868.1262.

Reminder of Winter Parking Rules and Removal of Air Conditioners from Windows

Oct28
2011 Leave a Comment Written by Chris
The Board of Directors at The Garrison Condominiums and S.S. Maguire Management would like to remind all residents and tenants at The Garrison of the winter parking rules and regulations.Effective as of December 1, 2011 through April 15, 2012, all residents and tenants need to be prepared and aware that they will need to relocate their vehicles during a snow storm.  Per the Rules and Regulations of The Garrison Condominiums, in order to facilitate a seamless snow removal process, all unit owners and tenants will be asked to relocate their vehicles during a snow storm or be subject to towing and/or fines.  It is imperative that all unit owners be prepared and aware of when a snow storm is coming so we can remove the snow properly.  The snow removal company has been authorized to honk their horns when on property so as to make everyone aware that it is time to relocate your vehicle(s).

For those of you who may be on vacation or away for a period of time and a snow storm is expected, we ask that you provide your keys to a neighbor so they can relocate your vehicle for you during a snow storm.  Here are a few pointers for you to follow:

  • If a snow storm occurs during the evening, please leave your vehicles in the deeded/marked spaces for your specific unit until you hear the honking from the snow contractor.  Upon hearing the horn, you will relocate your vehicle(s) to the main roadway which would have been cleared by then.
  • If a snow storm occurs during the day and you are home, please wait until you hear the honking of the horn from the snow contractor and then relocate your vehicle(s) to the main roadway.
  • If a snow storm occurs overnight, the snow contractor will clear the main roadways so you can leave for work.  Upon hearing the horn in the morning (horn will not be sounded prior to 7am), you will be asked to relocate your vehicle(s) to the main roadway.
  • If you do not relocate your vehicle(s) when requested, your vehicle will be subject to being towed and/or fined (please refer to rules and regulations on fine amounts) by the Association and all expenses borne upon the owner of the vehicle.  Please do not leave your vehicle(s) on the main roads during the overnight as it makes it very difficult to plow properly and will most likely be towed at the owners expense.
  • Please remove any all items from your rear decks during the winter season as they are not a source of storage and should be properly placed inside your unit

We would also like to remind you that per the rules and regulations, Air Conditioners must be removed from all windows by November 1 (unless you have provided management a medical notice).  Fines and penalties will apply if air conditioners are in windows after November 1.

To All Owners and Tenants:


Please be advised that beginning on Monday, August 29th through Friday, September 16th, Silver Brothers Painting and Carpentry will be onsite to perform the following services at The Garrison Condos:


• Power Washing all vinyl siding on all buildings which includes the front, back, gable ends of buildings, front of garages, and gable ends of garages (basically anywhere there is vinyl siding it will be power washed and cleaned)

• Power washing of rear decks on units 1-21 which also includes the staining of the deck, handrails, and deck stairs (it is crucial that these units owner remove all patio furniture prior to work commencing and advanced notice will be provided)

• Scraping, sanding, and painting of all front doors on all 62 units (paint color will remain the same as it is now)

• Scraping, sanding, and painting of all garage doors on all 62 units (paint color will remain the same as it is now)


The first project will be the power washing of the vinyl siding of the buildings which will commence (weather permitting) on Monday, August 29th at 8:30am. It will be critical that all windows are closed and screens taken out during the power washing process so they are not damaged. This is the unit owner’s responsibility. The staining of decks, painting of front doors and garages will follow soon thereafter so it is very important that all unit owners be aware of when their front door and garage door will be painted and decks stained. You will be notified by the painters in advance when they will be at your front door and/or garage door (typically the day before) so you can unlock these doors so they can paint the entire door. The unit owners having their decks stained will be responsible for removing all deck items prior to painters arriving. If you plan to go away during this time, please let your neighbor(s) aware so they can make sure your front door and garage door are unlocked so they can work on them.


If weather plays a role in delaying any of the above mentioned projects the projects will role into the week of September 19th, but it is our goal to have all projects completed by September 16th.


If there are any questions regarding these projects, please feel free to call the Management Office at 603.868.1262.


Thank you!
