Dear AVC Members,

We would like to give you an update on the status of the draft AVC Corridors Policy. 

The Cooperators Insurance approved the attached draft policy. If adopted by the Board, this policy would allow for some items within unit door setbacks. Below is a summary. Please look at section 2.0 Permitted Items in the attached policy for more detail:

• Interior carpeted hallways: small door mats, wall art, temporary deliveries are permitted within the unit door setback. See image below.

• Exterior breezeways 2-bedroom units (#202-205, 210-213, 302-305, 310-313, 402-405, and 410-413): potted plants, tables, chairs, and open benches (not storage benches) are permitted within the setbacks of breezeway units, but not within 17 inches of unit entrances (see image below; these permitted items are only allowed within the green box). Small door mats, wall art, temporary deliveries are permitted within the unit door setback.

• Exterior breezeways patios on 2nd floor (#206 and 209): potted plants, tables, chairs, open benches (not storage benches) are permitted only within the patio space on the breezeway; and small door mats, wall art, temporary deliveries are permitted within the unit door setback.

• Exterior breezeways 3-bedroom units (#306, 309, 406 and 409): small door mats, wall art, temporary deliveries are permitted within the unit door setback.

• Courtyard and street-facing patios (on the ground floor): personal items are permitted on 1st floor patios, but must not be placed within 43 cm (17 inches) of unit entrances nor on the paved walkways extending from those unit entrances.

Before this draft policy is submitted to our lawyers for their review, we wanted to share it with you, the members, so that we can respond to your questions and comments. Please email AVCpolicycommittee@gmail.com with your feedback by Monday, July 13. After we receive your feedback, we will submit the draft policy to our lawyers and then the final version will be submitted to the Board for its approval (ideally this summer).

Thank you for your patience through this whole process.

Sincerely,

The AVC Policy Committee
