Keeping Clean in Mud and Snow
Repairs @ The Vaux

12/08/2011 – During the fall CMI conducted an owner survey to help assess the condition of our condos. In response, several owners reported
drafty windows. The Vaux structure is nearly hermetic, yet it is important that fresh air circulate within units. For this reason, window
seals were deliberately not made perfectly airtight. But seals might also be misaligned or missing altogether. If you think your windows
are leaking a lot more air than they should, please contact CMI.
12/08/2011 – Winter and rough weather are upon us. Soggy leaves, water, and mud try hard to follow us home, and that means a lot of
extra work for our Onsite Porter, Kathy Sweet. Please help her by cleaning up your feet and your pets before entering the buildings.
12/08/2011 – In mid-October, in two separate incidents, an unknown person or persons removed the drain strainer and dropped a large
number of rocks down the drain tube of the Raleigh water feature, blocking its operation. Repairing these acts of vandalism cost more than $2400.
Drains on both water features have now been secured. For more on this and other recent repairs & improvements @ The Vaux,
