Parking in EV and Reserved Spaces

In accordance with the Association’s Rules and Regulations “Owners, or residents of an Owner’s Residential Unit, shall park their vehicles only in their Exclusive Use Parking Spaces or Exclusive Use Garages.” Please do not park in an EV parking space or Reserved space for any duration of time, if you are not designated to do so.

Bike Room Audit

Did you know that when you store your bike in the bike storage room that you must obtain a bike permit?  Management has completed an audit and attached a noticed to the unregistered bikes. If you do not have a permit please make sure to come by to obtain one from Management on Tuesday’s or Thursday’s during office hours or email the request and delivery can be coordinated.

While cleaning your balconies, please clean them in a manner that will not allow water to spill onto the balconies below.

Trash Disposal in Common Areas 

Management would like to remind residents to pick up any trash they leave behind while traveling through the Association as we must all do our part to preserve the appearance of Alicante.
