Garage Repairs

As of November 7, 2025

We are diligently working to bring the project to completion. We appreciate everyone's continued patience!

We are in the final stages of addressing construction punch list items and implementing enhancements to the garage security system, including the necessary remote reprogramming. Once a confirmed completion date is established, we will promptly communicate this information to all residents.

As of September 4, 2025 at the Shareholder’s meeting

Water damage was found in the garage. We have contracted with a vendor to ensure that future water damage is mitigated, and that current issues are addressed. Unfortunately, this means that the garage will not be re-opened this week, but hopefully by the end of September.

We apologize for any inconvenience this may have caused.

As of August 18, 2025

The majority of the work is completed on the garage, but additional work is needed to address new water intrusion.

Next steps:

  • Complete the waterproofing

  • Paint the garage

  • Wrap up the project.

More information, including a timeline, will be distributed to residents with parking spaces in the next two weeks.
