 Fireplace Clean?
Now
that cooler weather is here, you may be using your fireplace. With central heat, more and more people use the
fireplace only occasionally, so it's easy to forget the yearly call to a
chimney sweep.
One
year turns into two; two become three… Unless the famous Mary Poppins
rooftop-dancing scene serves as a reminder, creosote buildup can ignite and
cause a chimney fire.
"If
you are using it regularly, have your chimney checked once a year by a
state-certified chimney sweep," Modesto Fire Department Capt. Lee Parker
said. "If you don't use it so much, you may only need to have it checked
every two to three years." Parker estimated that on 90 percent of
chimney fire calls, the fire department is able to get on the roof and shoot
foam down the chimney before substantial damage is done.
Sometimes,
however, when there is enough creosote buildup in the chimney and the fire is
not detected in time, the chimney lining either melts or warps. If the damage
is bad enough, cracks in the chimney or lining can develop, and the house can
catch fire.
A
recommended chimney sweep is John Creech. His number is (760)480-1019.
 Common Areas
and Private Plants
It
has been brought to the CLJG Board's attention that private display of plants
and decorations on the common areas (i.e., such as the stairs, landings,
walkways, and railings leading to front doors) are creating liability issues,
which in other condominium communities, have led to expensive lawsuits.
The
CLJG Board, in keeping with its responsibility to act in the best interest of
the association and its members, finds itself forced to make a probably
unpopular decision.
The
display or storage of any item (such as plants or decor objects) on the
common area surfaces listed above is now prohibited and all such items must
be removed immediately. Because of increasing issues of liability throughout
California Community Associations, we thank you for your cooperation in
advance, in moving your personal items and plants from the common areas.
 Pool Chairs
It
looks like the lower sections of the pool chairs are being bent from improper
use. We need your help in keeping costs down by not allowing children to use
them as trampolines. These chairs are about $350 each. You can see why we
need your help with this issue.
