Please be advised that the replacement of the dumpster enclosures will begin within one week or so. The new enclosures are made of cedar and will be left in its natural state, so as to match the existing cedar shingles on the buildings.
In addition, bollards will also be installed within the enclosures to prevent dumpsters from hitting the back of the enclosure when dumpsters are lowered (during garbage pick-up). Bollards should prevent damage to the back of the enclosure, thus eliminating the cost of constant repairs to the enclosures.
Two bollards will be installed in each of the five dumpster enclosures. Bollards are made of four inch iron pipe, which will be sunk three feet into the ground and stand four feet above ground. Concrete will surround the pipe in the ground. The bollard is filled with concrete and will have a metal cap.
Should you have any questions and/or concerns regarding this correspondence, please contact the Management Office at 973-790-1200 ext. 106 or via email at hforde@hamptonmgt.com.
Rapid Pump recently assessed the sewer lines on the property and reported that residents are disposing of other non-flushable items such as sanitary wipes into the system. This has escalated maintenance problems and is now costing the Association (you the unit owners) a considerable amount of money.
To prevent this from happening in the future, we must insist that residents refrain from throwing flushable sanitary wipes, baby wipes, tissues and other non-flushable items down your toilets.
Please be aware that flushing wipes and tissues clogs up the Tulip sewage system. Clogged pumps needlessly cost thousands of dollars to remove the material.
Bathroom wipes cannot be flushed. Even if wipes say they are flushable, they are not. See video below.
Sewage pumps are designed to pump sewage, and nothing else. When pumps get clogged they overheat and break down. This brings the sewage pumping station to a standstill—which requires emergency repairs.
We have just completed repairs to the pumping station at a cost of $4,000.00!
Please advise all your household members that wipes and tissues and similar material is non-flushable and needs to be placed in the garbage.
Tulip Gardens Board of Directors
In an effort to better serve the Tulip Gardens Condominium community, Hampton Management, along with the Board of Directors, is now in the process of implementing a reverse informational system.
The automated system has several advantages and will allow Management and the Board of Directors to relay important messages and notices via your telephone, sms text and email. In the event of an emergency situation, this system will allow us to contact all residents within minutes. Using this system also provides environmentally friendly effects – less paper waste and postage!
All unit owners and residents are required to complete the form sent via postal mail or via the link on our website. The paper form has instructions for returning the form should you choose to use that. Alternatively, you can fill out the form posted on the website at this link: Contact Info For Automated Alerts. Using the website form will save you time and postage.
All information is kept confidential and you phone number are NEVER sold to or shared with outside vindors or agencies.
Should you have any questions or concerns, please feel free to contact the Management office at 973-790-1200 ext. 106.
Our fire alarm panel upgrade is completed. Advanced Alarm has provided us with a document to certify this and unit owners can submit this to their insurance carriers for a possible rate reduction. The download link for the certificate is located under the password protected Board Documents page. If you have trouble downloading this, please contact Steve Albin at steve@steve-albin.com for assistance.
Starting today, all iron deck railings are being painted and new wood railings will be installed atop the iron railing. On ground floor units, iron railings that have become detached from their concrete base will be reset into the concrete. Any cracks in the concrete floors will be repaired. Workmen will access all decks from the outside.
Remember your September HOA payment is sent to Hampton Property Management. All owners received a letter of instruction with a coupon and an envelope for the September payment. Do not use the September coupon from Patrician to pay your September HOA fees. Discard that Patrician coupon.
