Dear Members,

With the BC moving into Step 3 of the COVID-19 BC Restart Plan, here is what this means in our Co-op as of Thursday, July 1:

1. Our Common Room will reopen for bookings and there is a return to normal for indoor and outdoor personal gatherings.
   
   

*Note that our online booking form and our Common Room & Roof Garden Use Policy have recently been updated and now allow for designated areas of our Roof Gardens to be booked.

2. Masks are recommended in public indoor settings for all people 12 and older who are not yet fully vaccinated. This means our elevators, hallways, lobby, laundry room, common room, bike rooms, and stairwell.

*Note some people may choose to continue to wear a mask after they are fully vaccinated, and that's okay. Please be considerate of neighbours who may not feel comfortable taking an elevator together yet, may have accessibility needs, or specific vulnerabilities.

As we navigate a slow return to normal, please respect each other and remember that our community will likely appreciate us approaching from a place of caution.
