Building Updates

Monthly Fire Alarm Testing

This month we will be conducting our annual fire testing, likely the week of July 21st. More details to come – please ensure you are monitoring your email this month.

Maintenance Requests

Submit all maintenance requests through your Entrata Resident Portal. This would include things such as your Grata lock informing you that your battery is low, your thermostat battery is low or anything else you need us to have a look at and fix/replace. Please do not use your Grata app.

Garbage Room

Garbage room has been rearranged – please do not just open the door and throw your garbage bags on the floor. ♻️ If you are unfamiliar with what goes where, you can download the Guelph waste app in the App Store or Google Play.

Kitchen

Please remember that the kitchen is a shared space and the fridges and freezers in the community kitchen are shared amongst all residents. Please be respectful of the space by using the shared fridges and freezers for items that do not fit your mini fridge.

Pool Table

Please take care of the pool table and pool cues.
