Reminder: New Plaza Trash Area Policy

Yesterday, a New Plaza resident disposed of an entire bathroom vanity in the Trash Area (pictured to the left). Our trash service only removes items placed in the blue bins and broken down cardboard boxes. Furniture, electronics, and all other household items too large to fit inside the trash bins MUST NOT be left in the Trash Area. The Condo Board will review security footage in order to identify the resident who disposed of the bathroom vanity and assess him/her a $100 fine plus the cost of removing the vanity, unless he/she removes it from the Trash Area immediately.

In response to the above instance, as well as numerous similar instances over the past several months in which New Plaza residents have improperly disposed of items in the Trash Area, the Condo Board will be actively enforcing the Trash Area policies and assessing fines, as laid out in the House Rules.

NEW PLAZA TRASH POLICIES (Section 2.8 of the House Rules):

• No waste (including junk mail and flyers) may be left in any common area at any time (including hallways, laundry room, or foyers). Trash must be placed INSIDE the appropriate bins in the Trash Area outside the basement of the building.
• ALL cardboard boxes MUST be broken down and flattened.
• Styrofoam is not recyclable.
• Furniture, electronics, and all other household items too large to fit in the trash bins MUST NOT be left in any common area, including the Trash Area. 

To arrange for large items to be picked up, make your own arrangements or call Tilmon Properties for a list of service providers.

Any resident deemed by the Board to be in violation of these policies will be fined $100 per occurrence, plus the cost of removing the item.
