Quick Part Name: Seabridge Villas Water

Good [Morning/Afternoon,]

[ATTACH BOILER SHUT OFF NOTICE FORMBOILER MAP, & BOILERS,UNITS AFFECTED BY EACH – AVAILABLE ON LOOKUP]

If you need to have the water/boiler shut off in order to do repairs inside your unit at Seabridge Villas it can be done (free of charge) on 1st TUESDAYS ONLY, no earlier than 9am and water back on by 4pm. Non-emergency water shut off is not allowed on any other day of the week. You must contact the Community Care Department so that a water shut off work order can be created for you. It is recommended that you “pad” the timeframe to take into account that your plumber may run into unforeseen circumstances.

You are responsible to post notices at least 24 hours in advance.  If the notices are not posted when your plumber arrives, the water will not be shut off and you will have to reschedule.  The notices must be posted in the following locations:

  1. Inside every elevator in every building affected.
  2. Outside every elevator (on every floor) in every building affected.
  3. In the stairwell (on every floor) in every affected area.
  4. Photograph notices after posting to document that they have been posted.

I’ve attached three items to assist you:  BOILER SHUT OFF NOTICE FORM, BOILER MAP, & BOILERS,UNITS AFFECTED BY EACH.  Please let us know if you have any questions or need further assistance.  Have a great day!

Best Wishes,

Insurance: Request to Update Info

Quick Part Name: UPDATE INSURANCE

The Subject line of your email should always contain the name of the Association you are emailing about, so it should say something like:  “Casalon Insurance.”  It should be mailed to the Manager and copy the Assistant

Dear Manager,

The insurance information for the above mentioned association needs to be updated in Jenark/Mgmt App as soon as possible.  It is very important that this information is always current since we give it to callers on a regular basis and it is information that prints at the bottom of the Escrow Demands.

Please provide your Assistant with the current Certificate of Insurance so that the information can be updated in Jenark (and will pull over onto the “Insurance Tab” on Management App).  Instructions for updating the insurance information (if needed) are available on the H-Drive in the Jenark folder.   Also, if you want homeowners to be able to access the current Certificate of Liability Insurance on the Resident Portal, please place a copy in the association’s VIVO folder on the H-Drive.

Thnk you,
