Hello Meadows! At the February meeting, the Board voted in favor of adding the following rule to “Section V. Rules Governing Behavior” of the Rules and Regulations:
"...If a noise complaint and proof are provided in writing to Management, and it remains unresolved, the co-owner will be called to a hearing..."
The results of the hearing can include fines of $10.00 per day for up to 90 days, suspension of privileges, and/or suit to compel compliance with installing noise absorbent material/carpeting in the common living spaces of the unit (i.e. living room, stairs, etc). If the Co-owner reports resolving the violation, Management can inspect the unit to confirm.
- Noise levels that are 65 decibels or greater.
- Longer than 15 minutes and occurring at least 3 times within a 24-hour period, or, if not 15 minutes long, 7 individual times within a 24-hour period.
- Must provide a recording obtained with a decibel meter or suitable device for each event.
- Written proof that an attempt to resolve the complaint directly with the neighbor at least 14 days prior to the complaint filing date.
As always, please contact the management office with any questions.
