Things to know

Housekeeping

Animals

Pets are welcome at 28 Southgate! Please consider your neighbours and ensure any mess made in common areas is cleaned immediately. If complaints are received about your pet, the Owners Corporation may take action.

Neighbours

Living in a multi-unit development means living closer to neighbours. Please consider your neighbours, particularly late at night or in the early mornings

Odours like to get around. Please use your exhaust fan while cooking.

Balconies

Please be aware of over-spillage when watering plants on your balcony to avoid disruption to your neighbours below. No items of clothing, blankets or linen are allowed to hang in or over balcony balustrades. Under no circumstances should any items be thrown or dropped from balconies.

Bicycles are not to be stored on balconies; we have a secure bike room. Contact Building Management to register a spot.

Smoke alarms

The smoke alarms in each apartment are battery-operated and are not linked to the building’s alarm system. It’s best to test your smoke alarm twice a year and change the backup battery every year.

As smoke alarms in the passageways are connected to the fire brigade, please keep apartment doors closed to prevent false alarms. The Owners Corporation may take action against anyone responsible for setting off a smoke alarm, including recouping fees incurred for the fire department callout.
