Water Glades T300

Fellow Residents of Water Glades Tower 300

 

The work on the elevators has begun in earnest. Our goal, and the goal of TKE Elevator, is to complete the project by December 15, 2023 at the latest. The expectation is that the first elevator will be completed within 16 to 18 weeks after delivery of the components or about August 15, 2023. The second elevator should take 12 - 14 weeks. If those expectations are met, the work will be complete around November 15, 2023. This leaves 4 weeks slippage time for TKE to meet the December 15, 2023 date.

​

TKE's work schedule will be from 6am to 4pm Monday through Thursday. There will be 2 workers onsite every day with additional specialty contractors as required. The workers will be allowed to use the lobby bathroom and will ensure all work spaces will be cleaned daily.

​

Your Board of Directors will provide a bi-weekly update on the progress of the work. We understand the occasional inconvenience having only one elevator in service will entail. Please be patient as we bring our elevators into the 21st century.

TEMPORARY ELEVATOR RULES DURING MODERNIZATION

​

To minimize the inconvenience of having only one elevator, the maintenance committee has proposed the following rules for the use of the elevator while under construction:

​

1. Any delivery requiring more than one lock-out trip on the elevator must be scheduled between 10pm and 6am Mondays through Thursdays. This would include move-ins and move-outs and deliveries of whole rooms of furniture. The unit owner must hire one of Water Glades maintenance staff to supervise the use of the elevator to ensure residents take priority over the lock-out.

​

2. Deliveries requiring a single lock-out must be scheduled at least 1 week in advance so we can make sure the lock-out is handled as efficiently as possible. Examples of a delivery that might require a single lock-out are refrigerators, stoves, mattresses, or a living room couch.

​

3. Please do not push both the UP and DOWN buttons of the elevator hoping to catch a ride up before you go down. That will slow the elevator by requiring it to stop on your floor twice.
