What
if I have a complaint about one of my neighbors?
If you have a complaint about one of your neighbors,
please discuss the situation, in a neighborly spirit,
with the specific individual. Many times, issues can
be resolved through proper communication. Once you've
done all you can to resolve the situation yourself,
please send a letter to the
Board. The Board's intent is to protect all parties
involved, and your confidentiality will be preserved
to the extent the situation permits.

What should
I do if I experience problems with sewer problems?
If you notice your sink, tub , shower and toilet are
not draining properly and it’s bubbling or water
is overflowing, there is a possible sewer back-up. Call
the property manager immediately at (408) 363-9954.
If you reside in a first-story unit, please instruct
your upstairs neighbors to not use their sink, tub,
shower or toilet. Many times, sewer back-up is as a
result of food, grease, paper towels, cooking oils,
etc., that clog the pipes.

What
if I want to subscribe to satellite television service?
All individually-owned television satellite dishes are
not allowed at the Tradewinds. As a result of improper
installations in the past, the Board of Directors passed
a resolution declaring individually-owned dishes forbidden
anywhere within the common areas of the complex. Individuals
who currently have satellite dishes (properly installed
or not) will be required to remove them upon the installation
of your buildings’ master satellite dish system
(see “How can I subscribe to the Tradewinds’
cable/satellite television service” entry for
more information). All satellite dishes improperly installed
will be removed immediately without further notice,
and the owner will be charged for any damage caused
to the roof and/or building. If you have any questions,
please contact the property manager by calling (408)
363-9954, or submit
a service request.

How can I subscribe
to the Tradewinds’ cable/satellite television
service?
Over the next few months, Tradewinds will be installing
a complex-wide cable/satellite television network. A
complex-wide network eliminates the problems surrounding
improper/unapproved installation of dishes, improves
the esthetics of the complex overall, and enables cable/satellite
programming to all residents without having to install
costly hardware. With the new network, three satellite
dishes will be installed on each building, allowing
anyone residing within that building to access satellite
television programming. Likewise, special equipment
will be installed for residents of the building to access
cable television programming. The new network will allow
residents to choose their programming provider, and
subscription is quick and easy. Contact the property
manager for more information by calling (408) 363-9954,
or submit
a service request.
