2 INTRODUCTION

2.1 Welcome To New Owners

Dear Windsor Over Peachtree Homeowner,

Welcome to The Windsor Over Peachtree Condominium Association! Knowing that you had many communities from which to choose, we are delighted that you chose The Windsor Over Peachtree as your home.

As a new homeowner in this association, please become familiar with your association documents. These documents, which include the Declaration of Condominium, By-Laws, and Rules and Regulations, outline the responsibilities of both the homeowner and the association.

The quality of your experience as a homeowner of The Windsor Over Peachtree Condominium Association depends largely on your knowledge of what you can expect from us and what we can expect from you and your participation as a resident of this community. The Manager staff is your primary contact for day-t0-day issues and for liaison with the Board of Directors.

Please take the time to review this manual thoroughly. This Homeowner Manual has been designed as a reference tool to assist you in using the building's facilities, and explains such things as move-in procedures, parking policies, amenities, and other available services. If you received a printed copy of this manual, you should know that the most up-to-date copy of this manual and most of the administrative forms can be found on the Windsor website at www.620peachtree.org.

If you need clarification or additional details about any issue, please feel free to call the Manager.

Welcome home.

Sincerely,

The Windsor Over Peachtree Board of Directors

7 EMERGENCY PROCEDURES

7.1 Severe Weather Warnings

A. Atlanta occasionally may be in the path of a tornado or severe storm. If our area is in danger of a tornado, the weather service will issue one of the following: a Tornado Watch (a condition that could possibly generate a tornado) or a Tornado Warning (a tornado has been sighted in the area).

B. Without proper precautions, storms can cause severe damage and injuries. By following the procedures below, we will be as prepared as possible.

C. Please tune your television to the Weather Channel, or your favorite local network, for the most current weather information on the Atlanta area.

D. Tornado Watches: Be aware that if a tornado does reach the area all items on your balconies (including furniture and planters) are potential hazards to you and your neighbors. Please secure these items immediately or move them safely inside your unit.

E. Tornado Warnings: In the event of a "Tornado Warning", you should move away from all glass doors and windows to an interior area of your unit or the tire stairwell. If you are in the lobby area, move to the Parking level. If you are in the parking decks, go into the nearest interior fire stairwell and wait until all danger has passed.

7.2 Fire Safety

A. The Windsor Over Peachtree Condominium Association is committed to providing a safe environment for our residents in the event of an emergency. Many fire safety features have been incorporated into the design and construction of the building, including emergency lighting, fire alarm pull stations, fire extinguishers, smoke detectors and fire sprinklers. The fire sprinkler heads are activated by heat not smoke. The majority of the heads axe rated at 155( and will activate at or above this temperature. Tampering with the heads in any way is against the law.

B. Know Your Building: Each occupant should be familiar with the location of all the exit stairways on his/her floor.

C. Make an Evacuation Plan: Occupants should discuss in advance what they will do if the closest exit cannot be used during a fire emergency. Please study the posted Fire Escape plan for your floor.

D. If A Fire Occurs In Your Unit:

1. Immediately call 911 for the Fire Department. Tell them the floor and unit number as well as the street address. Contact the Front Desk if there is time.
2. Without further delay, leave your unit. Be sure to close the door behind you, leaving it unlocked. This will prevent the possible spread of heat and smoke into the corridor. For fire and personal safety, do not block any open doers in the building at any time.
3. Remember to alert occupants of other units on your floor. It is vitally important that they be given as early a warning as possible, especially at night.
4. Use the closest exit stairway. Be sure to close the stairway door behind you. Once in the stairway, you are in a more protected area and can descend in an orderly manner. In case of a fire, elevators automatically shut down and slowly descend to the lowest floor.
5. NEVER attempt to use the elevators. They may be out of service, malfunctioning or not readily available. In addition, the Fire Department will need to use all operable elevators at the time of their arrival in order to gain quick access to the fire area.

E. If There Is Fire Or Smoke Near Your Unit:

1. Immediately call 911 for the Fire Department. Tell them the floor and unit number as well as the street address and what you have seen. Do not assume that anyone else has already called them. Call the Front Desk
2. Before trying to leave your unit, place the palm of your hand on the door, palm down. If the door feels warm to the touch within five seconds, do not attempt to open it as this could indicate the presence of a dangerous fire condition in the corridor.
3. If the door is not warm to the touch, carefully open it a small amount so as to check for the possible presence of smoke in the corridor.
4. If you feel that the corridor can be used, alert occupants of other apartments on your floor and proceed to the closest exit stairway. Be sure to close your door and the stairway door behind you. Do not attempt to use the elevator.
5. If your unit door is warm to the touch or there is heavy smoke in the corridor, keep the door dosed. Seal cracks around the door with wet towels and any other places where smoke appears to he entering.
6. If some smoke enters your unit and you have windows which can be operated, open one just slightly. In units having windows which cannot open, remain close to the floor.

F. By following the above suggested steps and doing pre-fire planning, you will greatly reduce your chance of being killed or injured in a fire in your building. Since no two fires are alike, plan carefully and learn your building layout well so that you can change your exit plan as conditions warrant.

12 MAINTAINING YOUR HOME

12.1 Responsibilities

A. Maintenance inside your home is the homeowner's responsibility. The Association is responsible for the upkeep of the common areas only. It is the homeowner's responsibility to arrange and pay for any repairs inside their home. The following is a summary of maintenance responsibilities, which is taken from the Condominium Documents, Paragraph 17, Pages 33-35:

B. Homeowner's Responsibilities (basically anything inside your unit):

1. All glass surfaces (except exterior cleaning of balcony windows);
2. Windows, frames, locks and casings, including caulking of windows (except for periodic painting, staining and/or cleaning of the exterior window frames);
3. Doors, doorways, frames and hardware that are part of the entry system (except for periodic painting or staining of the exterior surface of entry doors and door frames facing the hallway of the Condominium);
4. All portions of individual heating and air conditioning system, including the air conditioning compressor serving the Residential Unit and the fan coil;
5. All pipes, lines, ducts, conduits or other apparatus which serve only the homeowner's unit, whether located within or without a unit's boundaries (including all electricity, water. sewer, or air conditioning pipes, lines, ducts, conduits, or other apparatus serving only the unit).

C. Association's Responsibilities (basically anything outside of your unit):

1. All common elements including all portions of the roof and the roof support systems and any roof area under the Limited Common Element roof terraces;
2. All Limited Common Elements, excluding all improvements made to such Limited Common Elements;
3. Periodic painting, staining and/or cleaning of exterior surfaces of the Condominium building, window frames, and entry doers and door frames facing the hallway of the Condominium and exterior window frames, on a schedule to be determined by the Board of Directors;
4. Periodic cleaning of exterior window surfaces (except balcony windows);
5. All skylights, even though they are considered a portion of the unit, the cost of which may be assessed against the Owner of the unit in which the skylight is located, pursuant to Paragraph 8(b)(i) of the Documents;
5. Incidental damages to any unit resulting from performance of work which is the Association's responsibility.

D. Responsibility for Water Leaks: No matter how careful we are to prevent them, water leaks happen. Living in a high rise means that water leaking in one unit can run into others and cause damage. The sooner the Manager knows of a leak, the sooner we can stop it and the less damage it can cause.

1. The Manager will arrange for cleanup and drying out services. These costs will be billed to the homeowner.
2. The homeowner whose unit is damaged is legally responsible for any costs related to the clean-up and repair, even if the water damage originated in another unit. The damaged owner may have a claim against the other owner, but that does not negate the damaged owner's responsibility.
3. Luckily, the homeowner can usually recover most clean-up and repair costs from his/her homeowner's insurance. We strongly recommend that you review your insurance policy with your agent or insurance company to ensure that you have the coverage you desire accounting for the Association's annual deductible (see Financial Matters).

12.2 Emergency Service

A. The following are considered maintenance emergencies for which you must call the Manager immediately, or if after hours, the Front Desk.

1. Any pipe is leaking.
2. Toilet bowl is overflowing.
3. Toilet tank is leaking or overflowing.
4. HVAC unit is leaking.
5. Water is dripping or running from a duct or ceiling.
6. Water is seen on the floor around any plumbing fixture or appliance (sink, tub, shower, toilet, dishwasher, refrigerator, washing machine).

B. You should turn off the water valve immediately to prevent additional damage to your unit and the unit below you.

C. The cost of labor, parts, and materials will be charged to the homeowner at the rates listed below. Of course, you may hire your own licensed and insured service contractor. See "Responsibilities", above, for more about Water Leaks.

12.3 Preventive Maintenance of Plumbing

A. Sinks, Tubs and Showers: You should check sinks for moisture or small leaks. Leaks should be fixed promptly to avoid damage to cabinets and floors.

B. Toilets: You should check your toilets regularly. If you notice any of the following, please call the Manager immediately.

1. Unusual noises.
2. Toilet flushes itself.
3. Water constantly runs (if only a trickle).
4. Water on the floor near the base of the toilet.

C. If a toilet overflows or is running constantly, turn off the water at the shutoff valve and call the Manager immediately. The shutoff valve is usually located under the toilet. Turn it clockwise to turn off the water.

D. If you are going to be away for an extended period of time, you should turn off all water supply valves in your unit. For your toilets, pour a small amount of bleach in each tank and bowl. If you do not know where the water shutoff valves are or need help with this, please call the Manager and ask for assistance.

12.4 Preventive Maintenance of HVAC System

A. The Association provides preventive maintenance for your heating and cooling system in the spring and fall. You will be notified when work will be done on your floor. The preventive maintenance includes filter change, coil cleaning if needed, vacuuming out the condensate drain, inspection of blower and assembly, checking the thermostat and checking the bases.

B. The full preventive maintenance should be scheduled at least every six (6) months with filter replacement/inspection.

C. Requests for additional filter changes will be charged at the regular labor cast plus the cost of the filter.

D. We also recommend checking the condensate drain pan periodically to make sure it's not clogged. Pouring a half cup of bleach down the drain line will help prevent bacteria and clogs from building up. If it appears too full or is already overflowing, please call the Manager for service. Remember, any leak from your HVAC system into the unit below is your responsibility.

12.5 Routine Maintenance Services by Association Staff

A. When available, the on-site maintenance staff can be hired to do routine maintenance. All such work performed as their schedule permits and will be billed to your unit. All requests for maintenance work inside your unit must be made to the Manager (see Directory for contact information). Requests will be handled in the order received, unless it is an emergency (leak, fire, etc).

B. Upon completion of the work in your unit, the maintenance staff will leave a work order showing the amount that will be charged to your unit. See Financial Matters for available methods of payment.

C. Failed garbage disposals will not be replaced. The building's drainage plumbing was not designed to accommodate this debris.

D. In most instances, newer appliance repairs should be referred to authorized service companies to protect the warranty.

E. Neither the maintenance staff nor the Front Desk staff will perform lock-out service. See Security for more information.

F. Some non-emergency routine requests include:

1. Clearing clogged drains.

new homeowner manual document

Hi, Dave,

I've posted the new html version of the homeowner manual. Even though it appears to be fine, with CSS styles and a linked table of contents, it is not ready for prime time yet. If you scroll down, you'll see some items highlighted in yellow. These are apparent errors in the original document. I don't know what the protocol is for getting these resolved but I have made a detailed list of them with their locations in the original document, which I will send to your regular email address if I can't figure out how to upload it here.

Among other things I did to the document is to rearrange it for better comprehension, add paragraph numbers for easy referencing of specific items, and make other minor editorial changes. I hope these won't create more problems than they solve, but I thought this should be done.

I will be out of town until Saturday, but since there are other major management activities going on, I don't think this is particularly urgent -- unless it is necessary to forestall others from duplicating this effort. The reason I say this is that the existing manual has Piedmont Management's welcome letter in it -- some people may feel it's necessary to replace that. What I did was change it to a letter from the Board, that doesn't have to be changed each time the management firm changes. I fixed the rest of the document the same way -- it just refers to "the Manager" and "the Manager's organization".

I figure that once this is "approved" or whatever, I can make the pdf file from it, either just as-is or after reformatting in Word.
