Thanks George,
All,
I suggest the following changes. What do you think.
For New Years Eve your privacy and building security will be controlled
by the requirement of a guest list for all guests wishing to enter ANY
PART of the building including the roof top on 31 December. Your guest
list will be limited based on the size of your apartment (10 tickets per
each bedroom).
I suggest replacing "ANY PART" with "Level 7 rooftop". - There is no way
anyone is stopping me having as many people that I want in my apartment
that I own. This is crazy to even thing we can. People should be free to
do as they wish within their own homes as long as it does not impact
others.
I suggest "based on he size of your apartment" be removed and replaced
with "Your guest list for the level 7 roof top will be limited to 15".
The system of limiting to the size of your apartment is nonsense and
benefits a very select amount of owners within the building. It gives no
regard to people with no view and is in my opinion designed to befit two
former members of the executive comity. The two biggest apartments in
the building have massive balcony's facing north and west and have no
reason to use the roof at all on NYE.
Please note: _G__lass, bottles, alcohol or smoking is not permitted_on
level 7 or common areas, all other drinks must be transferred to a
plastic cup before leaving your apartment.
Im open to discussing the removal of Alcohol from this. But we need to
remember that we possibly have insurance liability here. Perhaps Pia
could give some advise. I think plastic is still a requirement and
smoking can be done in your own apartment not the roof. I have lived in
the building 5 years and there has not been a NYE that has gone buy
where I have not had to extinguish a cigaret from my balcony. Once from
my furniture. Once a guest was hit. There is no room for smoking while
some smokers show disregard for throwing burning material over the balcony.
Let's get this knocked over quickly.
Matt.
