Discussed:
Background checks for residents
Background checks are performed for all new residents. However, the association does not deny anyone on the basis of having a criminal record. The association’s next condo legal documents will have a provision that ownership can be denied to anyone with a felony within the last ten years.
Assessment
There will probably be a special assessment for owners, but the amount and date have not been decided.
Work on roof
Concrete restoration will take place on the roof next week.
New entrance
A new pedestrian entry gate to S. Flagler is being prepared.
Complaints about service animals and swimmers
Residents complained of wetness and feces in elevators from dogs and swimmers. The office will send a letter reminding residents to please stay dry in the elevators and use the service elevator if possible.
Pet regulations under the next condo legal documents
The next condo legal documents will make Portofino South a “pet-friendly” building. The association can then set rules about where pets can enter and exit the building and which elevators they can use. One cat or one dog will be allowed per unit. Service and emotional support animals regulations will not be affected.
Next condo legal documents approval
Board member GD thinks our new legal documents cannot be put to a vote by owners until November due to many people leaving for the summer.
Blog mentioned
This blog was mentioned by GD as “detrimental” to unit property values. Several people wanted the blog removed and several people had never visited the blog and wanted the web address for it. The blog’s most popular post appears to be “The Miramar” my investigation of the history of the hotel that was here before the condominium was built.
