Mind your garbage

by

Lately we’ve had two problems:

  • People overfilling the garbage bins in the 244 garbage room
  • People putting cardboard into the garbage bins

There are three garbage bins in the 244 garbage room. They are all directly beside each other. It is literally a few extra steps to go to the one farthest from the door. If the first bin (or any other) is full (garbage is past the top of the bin and is forming a “mound” on top), DO NOT USE THAT BIN. Use one of the other two bins.

Cardboard only goes in the bins that are marked specifically for Flattened Cardboard Only. These are past the regular garbage bins and are clearly marked.

When bins are overfull or cardboard is put in the wrong bin, Waste Management charges extra, a cost that is carried by all owners and is 100% unnecessary if people dispose of waste and cardboard properly.

Please do your part!

New signs have been added to the three garbage bins:

Also of note: I once again let the mail delivery person in, so we got mail delivery for a second day. Someone else apparently let in an Amazon delivery person as I could see new packages in the lobby (mailroom) and delivered to units on the ground floor. Whoever did that, thanks!

Reminder: Council meeting July 7, 2026 at 7 pm

by

If you are an owner, you can attend the monthly council meeting tomorrow (Tuesday) at 7 pm in the Building 240 office.

If you don’t live in the 240 building, just show up outside the lobby entrance at least five minutes before 7 pm and someone will let you into the office. Remember, owners can only observe, not ask questions or make comments.

Membrane work, July 6, 2026

by

Weather: 29°C, sunny
Workers onsite: At least six

Work done today:

  • Work was focused on demolition of the area in front of the Building 244 entrance
  • Pavers were removed and stacked in the central courtyard
  • Sand is being stored in the emergency repair area
  • The area was cleared down to the membrane
  • The Terminator (see photo below) is parked in the area, ready to remove membrane

As noted before, Prostar refused to give a time estimate of how long this work will take, nor have they explained how the mail and other deliveries will get in when the workers placed red caution tape directly (and extensively) in front of the doors.

I am giving my own estimate of 3–14 days for completion. At least the weather does not look to be a factor.
