Patios, Porches and Balconies

As the weather begins to get warmer, residents will be using patios, balconies and porches more often. This checklist as a friendly reminder for residents in shared community space.

  • Items on patios should be limited to patio furniture in good repair, potted plants, and satellite dishes not attached to the building.
  • Residents should be mindful of the amount of furniture and plants on their patio.
  • No trash or other debris should be left on patio, porch or balcony.
  • Only propane grills with small “camping” sized tanks are allowed within 10 feet of any combustible structure. Check your local fire code for additional restrictions.
  • Exterior shades are not permitted.
  • Residents should keep all entryways, corridors, and exits clear and unobstructed in case of emergency.
  • Any space under stairwells should be kept clear at all times.

Please contact your supervisors if questions arise.
