It is that time of the year and the holiday season is upon us. For most of us that means out of town guests, holiday decorations, parties and gift shopping. With how busy we can all get, we tend to forget the simplest things, so we wanted to share ways to help celebrate with less chaos and stress!

• Lock your vehicles – To try and prevent from any unfortunate incident, we ask that you remember to lock your vehicle and remove all personal belongings with value out of public view.
• Package theft – Unfortunately, mail and package theft during the holidays has become an issue. It only takes a moment for a thief to grab a package from a door step. If you are expecting a package or delivery, please arrange for someone to be home or have the package delivered to an alternative address.
• Parking – Please be cautious of the Association’s Parking Rules. If you have guests staying, ensure they are parking in appropriate parking spaces to avoid any unfortunate towing incidents.
•  Decorations – Inspect all holiday decorations and lighting before installing. It only takes a small wire or socket crack to cause a short circuit or fire.

Have a wonderful and safe holiday season!

AD Magellan will be conducting balcony inspections from October 25-26^th. They will use ladders to gain visibility to your balcony. If you have a 3^rd or 4^th story balcony, please contact Darcie Perez directly at darciep@admagellan.com or 760-912-6111 to set up an appointment for the inspection. It is very important that these inspections be completed. The Association needs to be in compliance with SB326 or face possible fines.
