1. GO SMART Property Management manages this complex on behalf of all the owners. Please refrain from contacting board members directly regarding issues and contact our Property Manager, Katelyn Leslie at 403.262.7955.
2. Before any changes to the exterior of a condominium or adjoining landscaping can be made, a written request must be submitted to Katelyn Jacobson, at Go Smart Property Management. If guideline has previously been approved by the Board of Directors our Manager will approve or reject the request depending on the precedent. If no precedent exists for the request it will be tabled for the next board meeting and dealt with by your board at that time.
3. Mailboxes: The approved mailbox is a Libralite Model #9360 with a baked enamel finish (all white only) to be properly affixed in the appropriate location at the front entrance way of each unit.
