I have HAD it

I would like to request the board’s attention to an on-going situation in Building A.
Andrew xxxxx has repeatedly violated the quiet hours. I’m disturbed by men yelling, stomping on the floor hard enough to rattle the pictures in my unit, and loud music from the TV. (Last night, the Spartan theme was blaring close to midnight).

From the time he moved in, I have made numerous phone calls to him, asking him to be quiet in the evenings. I have also called the police on one occasion.

There have also been multiple instances where the noise has carried between our units, and I haven’t bothered to call, as it seemed to do no good

While he chooses not to answer the phone, he did once assure me in person that he was aware of, and would begin honoring the quiet hours.

When we purchased our condos, we did so with the understanding that quiet would be maintained between 10:30 at night and 8:00 in the mornings. If this was unacceptable to him, I would contend that he made the wrong choice in his purchase. His neighbors should not be penalized for this. It should not be my responsibility to nag him into compliance.

I would prefer not to begin calling the police regularly. It distracts them from more important issues, and also lowers our property values, as these calls show up in the public record.

However, on days I work, my alarm goes off at 4:45. I can’t do my job adequately if I haven’t slept.

Again, we bought into xxxxxxxxx condos, assuming a certain lifestyle. If Andrew isn’t content with that lifestyle, than I contend it is HIS responsibility to either conform, or move on.

I request the board’s action on this matter, and guidance as to how I should handle the situation when it arises in the future.
